Emergency Management

For personal emergency management, PEI Emergency Measures publishes a useful guide. To view, click here.

Under the Municipal Government Act, the Municipality is required to create an Emergency Management Plan. This is a collaborative exercise with many other organizations. To guide us through this process, PEI Emergency Measures has created a handbook. To view, click here.

A required step in creating an Emergency Management Plan is the creation of a bylaw; in addition, Council must appoint a Municipal Emergency Coordinator whose responsibilities are outlined in the Bylaw. Effective April 21, 2020, the Municipal Emergency Coordinator for Eastern Kings is Isobel Fitzpatrick. Isobel comes to us after a successful career in policing and with a strong skillset in terms of training; her significant work experience in the area of Emergency Management and her desire to contribute to her Community bode well for her success in this role.
