Emergency Preparedness

In preparation for future storms or emergencies, we would like to remind residents to always be ready for an emergency by preparing a 72-hour emergency kit for yourself and your family. Visit the Ontario Emergency Preparedness website - https://www.ontario.ca/page/be-prepared-emergency for tips.

As part of your kit, ensure you have a battery-powered radio. Check your flashlights, ensure that you have working batteries for them, and make sure your cell phone and other devices are charged when a storm is forecasted.

If the Town experiences an emergency, such as a power outage, information and updates will be shared via the Town’s website - www.carletonplace.ca, e-newsletter CP Scoop - www.carletonplace.ca/cpscoop, on Hustle & Heart 88.1 myFM radio station, on social media, and on notice boards at the Pool (359 Bridge Street) and at the Arena (75 Neelin Street).

Neighbours are one (1) of the greatest resources in an emergency. Introduce yourself before an emergency strikes. Helping a neighbour can be as simple as checking in on them to make sure they’re ok when the power goes out or sharing information during an emergency. Everyone benefits when we look out for each other!
