How Can I Be Ready?

During the initial hours of any major emergency, Riverdale Municipality resources will be focused on re-establishing critical services and in providing care to those in urgent need. If your household has the supplies on hand to take care of yourself for 72 hours, we will be able to respond to those urgent needs. It will also give you the peace of mind that comes with knowing you’re ready.  Creating a basic kit may be as easy as putting together items you already have such as food, water and blankets. Your kit should be in a container that is durable and easy to carry such as a duffel bag or suitcase with wheels. Keep your kit in an easily accessible location and tell all members of your household where the kit is located.
