Water Supply
The water supply authority for the Geelong region is Barwon Region Water Authority (Barwon Water). Barwon Water recently amalgamated with Otway Region Water Authority and administers urban water supplies to Geelong, Colac, Birregurra, Alvie, Winchelsea, Anakie, together with towns on the Bellarine Peninsula and westwards along the cost to Apollo Bay. Water is also supplied to other small towns and a rural supply system supplies water to landholders in the vicinity of the reticulation network.Water is supplied to approximately 229,000 customers and annual consumption is in the order of 36,600 megalitres.
There are three sources of water supply for the Geelong region.
The Moorabool System which draws water from three reservoirs, Korweinguboora, Bostock and on a shared basis with Central Highlands Water from Lal Lal Reservoir. Water is also pumped from the Moorabool River at She Oaks for the Geelong supply. Water from Korweinguboora and Bostock Reservoirs is transferred by channel to three holding basins at Stony Creek from where it is sent to Geelong. A fourth reservoir is located on the Lower Stony Creek and reticulates water to customers in the Staughton Vale area.
The Barwon System which draws water from the West Barwon Reservoir. This water is transferred by channel to Wurdee Boluc Reservoir where it is treated before being reticulated to Geelong, the Bellarine Peninsula, Torquay and Anglesea.
emergency supply to augment the water harvested from the Barwon system in times of drought.
A site on Dewing Creek in the Barwon Catchment has been acquired for a possible new storage but the existing system is expected to meet requirements until 2010.
There are over 90,000 individual properties connected to more than 2,000 kilometres of water mains that make up the supply in the Geelong region. Local service basins exist at Lovely Banks, Highton and Montpellier in Geelong and there are additional basins on the Bellarine Peninsula and at Bannockburn and Meredith.
The average daily consumption for the Geelong Region is 70 megalitres but this can peak to 180 megalitres/day during periods of peak demand.
Barwon Water continually monitors the quality of its supplies. In the supply to the Geelong region it has water treatment plants at Wurdee Boluc and Meredith and several local disinfection plants. A new water treatment plant is also proposed for She Oaks. Water quality is therefore able to be achieved in accordance with World Health Organisation Guidelines.
Sewerage SystemBarwon Water is responsible for the supply of sewerage services within the Geelong Region. There are four discrete systems based on sewage treatment plants at Black Rock, Portarlington, Anglesea and Winchelsea. Another was constructed in Bannockburn during 1998.

The network in the Geelong Region is made up of 1,660kms of pipelines ranging in size from reticulation mains (150 mm diameter) through to major trunk sewers (up to 1,500 mm diameter). It also incorporates 108 pumping stations and associated rising mains. The main outfall pipeline to Black Rock runs along Latrobe Terrace and crosses the Barwon River as the McIntyre Bridge.
There are over 800 properties licensed to discharge trade waste ranging from small commercial premises to large industrial discharges such as Godfrey Hirst, Shell, etc.
There are over 84,000 properties connected to the sewerage system in Geelong. Approximately 15% of the flow is contributed by industry out of an annual total of 20,000 ML. Inflow and infiltration from rainfall and groundwater contributes about 14% of the flow and flow to the treatment plants can treble as a result of significant rainfall events.
Black Rock Sewage Treatment PlantBlack Rock Sewage Treatment Plant is the largest of Barwon Water’s Sewage Treatment Plants. An upgrade was completed in April 1996 at a cost of approximately $46 million. It is thought to be the largest sewage treatment plant in the southern hemisphere using the Intermittently Decanted Extended Aeration (IDEA) process.
The Black Rock Sewage Treatment Plant is located on Black Rock Road at Connewarre.
This facility treats the sewage from the Greater Geelong region, Lara, Drysdale/Clifton Springs, Leopold, Queenscliff, Point Lonsdale, Ocean Grove, Barwon Heads and Torquay.
The plants treats approximately 50 ML per day and has the capacity to treat up to 200 ML per day wet weather flow.

PART 11 APPENDICES: 2017 – 2019 APPENDIX DEMERGENCY RELIEF/RECOVERY CENTRES
11.4 Appendix D: Emergency Relief / Recovery Centres
IntroductionIn the event of an emergency, a facility will be chosen dependant on the type of emergency, number of people affected and the potential duration of the event.
The sites that have been identified in this section are a starting point, however, other centres within and outside the Municipal boundary may be utilised.
The final decision on the specific location for the relief or recovery centres will be made after consultation between the Council Municipal Emergency Resource Officer (MERO), Council Municipal Recovery Manager, Control Agency and Municipal Emergency Response Co-ordinator (Victoria Police).
Emergency CentresEmergency Relief Centres are known by many names and have many uses. These ‘locations’ can be broadly described as:
Relief Centres / Evacuation CentresCentres where short term shelter, emergency accommodation, feeding, information can be offered. These could be halls, schools, sporting facilities, clubs or any other suitable centre.
Recovery CentresThese are essentially Relief Centres, but offer the affected community a centre where information and advice can be obtained rather than emergency accommodation and the like.
Assembly Areas Locations for the assembly of persons affected by the emergency.
These areas are decided upon on the day required.
Neighbourhood Safer Places/Places of Last ResortNeighbourhood Safer Places are considered as a place of last resort, ie a ‘Plan B’ for residents if their own fire plan fails. They do not perform the same role as an Emergency Relief Centre and/or a Recovery Centre and are not to be considered a safe place but a safer place.
As at September 2017, Council has no CFA Certified Neighbourhood Safer Places.
Fire Refuges
As at September 2017, Council has no identified Fire Refuges.

PART 11 APPENDICES: 2015 – 2017 APPENDIX ECOUNCIL – LEVELS OF RESPONSE
11.5 Appendix E: Council – Levels of Response
Levels of ResponseThe City Of Greater Geelong’s Operations area has developed two Level of Response (LOR) tables that are used to assist in making the decision to move from one response level to the next higher. These tables are located on the following tables.
City of Greater Geelong Standard Operating ProceduresThe objective of Standard Operating Procedures (SOP's) is to outline particular actions of Council to be undertaken when reacting in an emergency/crisis which is considered to be a Level 1 incident. These involve common activities no matter what the crisis or the circumstances and are usually managed by a Duty Officer. Once an incident meets pre-set criteria and moves to a Level 2 or 3 incident an Incident Management Team is established and the members of this team use specific sub-plans to assist them in managing council’s response operation.
Emergency Management SOP’s used by the Council’s Operations Duty Officer are listed in the table below:
NOTE: Currently scheduled for review
SOP Number Title100 Series Flooding Incidents
100 General Flooding – Not related to river/creek/lake110 Moorabool River Flooding, (Batesford Precinct) Minor & Moderate,120 Barwon River Flooding (Geelong Precinct) Minor & Moderate130 Barwon River Flooding (Barwon Heads Precinct) Minor & Moderate140 Flooding Lake Victoria Precinct (flood level <1.4m)

11.10 Appendix J: Vulnerable People / Facilities
Vulnerable People & Funded Facility Details
During November 2011, DHS wrote to councils to outline key elements under the Departments of Health and Human Services ‘Vulnerable People in Bushfire Risk Areas Policy 2011-12. These key elements outlined council’s role in emergency management planning. The policy states, on p4, sect 6.2 Vulnerable people in facilities that Municipal Emergency Management Plans are required to include:
‘…a current and comprehensive list of facilities in high bushfire risk areas where vulnerable people are likely to be situated - such as aged care facilities, hospitals, schools and child care centres’. The policy went on to state; ‘…Municipal Councils are expected to include facilities funded or regulated by the Departments of Health, Human Services and Education & Early Childhood Development, where vulnerable people are likely to be located’.
In addition, the policy stated;’…municipal councils should also consider and identify other local facilities or amenities that may have vulnerable people … consideration may be given to a facility or amenity such as a Senior Citizens Centre, or some hostels or caravan parks where there are long-term vulnerable residents (ie not a primarily tourism based or caravan park’.
Information location Details on both vulnerable individuals and facilities no longer appear in the Municipal Emergency Management Plan. This is due to both privacy, accuracy and that the software program Crisisworks (aka MECC Central) now has the ability to store and display this data.
In addition, having the data on Crisisworks allows those emergency management services allocated with access to log onto Crisisworks and view the data remotely. Having a hardcopy within the MEMPlan can quickly become out of date.
Vulnerable Persons living within the Community
Since the introduction of Crisisworks, details on those individuals who have been assessed against the DHS Assessment Criteria as being vulnerable have been uploaded and maintained by the primary service provider onto the Vulnerable Person’s Register. Access to this Register is restricted.

Vulnerable Funded Facilities
City of Greater Geelong Council owns or manages more than 750 sites.
The following assumptions have been used in developing the Vulnerable facilities list Some venues meet one category while others meet them all How vulnerable the sites are will depend on the type of emergency, local and the time
of week or year. Facilities have been chosen in relation to who may utilise and unknown frequency of
use- ( ie halls) Sporting venues have not been included but can be accessed through Council’s
Community Directory Information already held by DHHS on funded agencies is NOT included in CoGG
information
This includes the following and the information is managed, updated and accessed by DHHS Disability group homes Hospitals Aged Care facilities Schools Retirement Villages Licensed Early years sites such as Kindergartens Long Day Care programs
Vulnerable Facilities Definition Facilities identified as potentially vulnerable meet one or more of the following criteria
Facilities in vulnerable areas ie isolated Facilities with vulnerable people not captured in DHHS data – ie Maternal and Child
Health Centres, Seniors Facilities that have volunteer management – ie community halls Caravan Parks
Information location As per above, the spreadsheet that lists Funded Facilities where vulnerable individuals are likely to be has been loaded onto the Documents page on Crisisworks The information can also be accessed through the City of Greater Geelong Community Directory

The following sections provide an outline of the important aspects of the ‘before, during and after’ phases of an emergency event, and the role of the CEO in each of these stages.
Before an Emergency Event
Emergency Management Planning and Governance Responsibilities
Legislative RequirementsA detailed description of key statutory and recommended municipal emergency management roles and an overview of the various municipal emergency management responsibilities can be found in the Local Government Emergency Management Handbook, available from the MAV or the Coordinator Emergency Management/MERO..
The Emergency Management (EM) Act 1986 prescribes many municipal obligations. The key emergency management planning responsibilities for councils stem primarily from Part 4 of the
Issue Date: December 2018Revision 2 – September 2018
Key Considerations
know the legislative responsibilities of councils in emergency management. In particular understand those key responsibilities detailed in the Emergency Management Act 1986.
ensure that under delegation the appropriate statutory roles of MERO and MFPO are appointed. Other non-statutory roles should also be appointed and provided with instruments of delegation.
ensure your council has a Municipal Emergency Management Plan (MEMPlan) and that it is up to date and endorsed by council. Make sure it appropriately interfaces with your council’s business continuity plan.
ensure adequate resources (physical, financial and human resources) are allocated to emergency management so as to ensure the organisation is meeting its legislative responsibilities. Ensure staff are trained and ready.
monitor the implementation of mitigation and preparation activities that are the responsibility of council under plans or legislation
ensure your emergency plans are able to be implemented and are tested consider resource sharing protocols or memoranda of understanding with
neighbouring or partner councils. These are a proven method to improving capacity and reducing the risk of failure.
engage with and be proactive in stakeholder forums relating to emergency management
when planning a new community facility give consideration to the role it could perform during or following an emergency.

PART 11 APPENDICES: 2017 – 2019 APPENDIX LRole of CEOs, Mayors & Councillors in Emergency Management
Act, which requires councils to prepare and maintain a Municipal Emergency Management Plan (MEMPlan) that:
identifies the municipal resources (being resources owned by or under the direct control of the municipal council) and other resources available for use in the municipal district for emergency prevention, response and recovery
specifies how such resources are to be used for emergency prevention, response and recovery
in the case of a municipal district that is located wholly or partly in the country area of Victoria within the meaning of the Country Fire Authority Act 1958—
o identifies all designated neighbourhood safer places in the municipal district or, if no places have been designated under the Country Fire Authority Act 1958, recording that fact; and
o designates any places in the municipal district that are community fire refuges within the meaning of Part IIIA of the Country Fire Authority Act 1958.
Part 4 of the EM Act also sets out municipal co-ordination and planning requirements: a municipal council must appoint a person or persons to be the Municipal Emergency
Resource Officer (MERO) a MERO is responsible to the municipal council for ensuring the co-ordination of municipal
resources to be used in emergency response and recovery a municipal council must appoint a Municipal Emergency Management Planning
Committee (MEMPC) constituted by members and employees of the municipal council, response and recovery agencies and local community groups involved in emergency management issues

These Acts relate directly to emergency management. However, emergency management has important relevance to many parts of council business, including planning and building, infrastructure management, environmental management, animal management and public health and wellbeing.
Municipal Emergency Management Plan (MEMPlan)The MEMPlan and its sub-plans are the key documents for prevention, preparedness, response, relief and recovery activities to be used before, during and after an emergency event. The MEMP needs to be audited and updated at least every three years. The MEMPlan is a multi-agency plan. Council is the custodian of the MEMPlan but all agencies on the MEMPC are responsible for its development and implementation.
Delegation under the Local Government ActIn relation to emergency management, written delegation under s98 of the Local Government Act 1989 may be issued to the Municipal Emergency Resource Officer (MERO), Municipal Recovery Manager (MRM) Municipal Fire Prevention Officer (MFPO), Environmental Health Officer (EHO) and Municipal Building Surveyor. This delegation will give the officer the authority to undertake actions on behalf of the council regarding the use of council resources, and other critical decisions relating to an emergency.
Business Continuity PlanningDuring an emergency, a key priority for the CEO is to keep the organisation running. As much as possible, council should continue to meet the needs of the emergency as well as delivering core services to the community. This will require continuous monitoring and deliberate prioritisation and allocation of resources.
Councils are not structured or funded to be emergency response organisations, and will be stretched in the event of a large-scale emergency. Events that extend for significant periods of time will exceed the capacity of an individual council to provide an ongoing response, and can have a serious impact on the council’s ability to carry out its everyday business. Large scale emergencies can also directly affect council staff living in or near the emergency.
For these reasons, it is prudent to link in municipal emergency management planning with the council’s business continuity planning. Emergency management needs to be supported as a critical service during emergencies, along with other identified critical council services. Where possible, effective business continuity planning includes diverting available resources from other non-critical council services to support critical services as a temporary measure.
Resource SharingCouncils are strongly encouraged to become signatories to the MAV Inter-council Emergency Management Resource Sharing Protocol. The protocol provides clarity regarding the provision of resources to assist other councils with response and recovery tasks during and after emergencies. It also clarifies operational, insurance and reimbursement issues that may arise through municipal resource-sharing arrangements. This protocol can be applied to

both equipment and staff secondments and can be very helpful in preventing staff burn-out after an emergency event.
Stakeholder EngagementThe CEO needs to have strong stakeholder relationships prior to an emergency event. These relationships will prove invaluable when an emergency occurs. Good relations with neighbouring council CEOs, sister-council relationships, and critical industries in the local area such as tourism operators, port authorities or power stations, are highly beneficial during times of emergency.
During non-emergency periods, establish productive relationships with regional emergency management representatives from:
Victoria Police CFA or MFB State Emergency Service Catchment Management Authorities VicRoads Departments of Health and Human Services Department of Primary Industries Red Cross
and any other local agencies/organisations identified in the MEMPlan. Get to know what their role will be during an emergency event. Encourage key municipal emergency management officers to also establish good working relationships with them.
Good relationships with your local Members of Parliament will also be beneficial during an emergency.

During an Emergency Event
An emergency event may affect the council organisation or its locality, its region, the state or the nation. A single agency must be appointed as the control agency at each emergency. Councils are never control agencies. Part 7 of the Emergency Management Manual Victoria (EMMV) specifies which organisation is the control agency for each type of emergency. During an emergency event, council emergency management officers will activate the relevant sections of the MEMPlan to support control and response agencies and commence relief and recovery
services as required.
Issue Date: December 2018Revision 2 – September 2018
Tips for CEOs – things to keep in mind:
keep a group list of council emergency management contacts in your phone as well as hard copy
keep the organisation running – as much as possible council should meet the needs of the emergency as well as delivering core services to the community
anticipate possible risks to the organisation; plan and respond accordingly maintain a strong focus and oversight of the physical, human, and financial
resources of the council to ensure current and future demands are able to be met, prioritising as necessary
ensure that the physical and psychological welfare and safety of council staff and councillors is maintained
provide leadership to council officers and staff, and act as the main contact point for the Mayor and councillors
keep a log or record of important decisions and events is a Municipal Emergency Coordination Centre (MECC) activation required? Has the
EM team done this? Note the Police MERC makes the final decision as to whether the Council MECC is to be activated
relief starts as soon as the emergency happens. Is an Emergency Relief Centre (ERC) needed?
are you likely to receive dignitaries and high-profile visitors? (see background notes) recovery activities will probably need to commence while the emergency event is still
underway know your procurement policy (s186 of LG Act) and ability to undertake emergency
works as needed.

PART 11 APPENDICES: 2017 – 2019 APPENDIX LRole of CEOs, Mayors & Councillors in Emergency Management
Communications and Media ManagementEstablishing good working relationships with local media during non-emergency times can prove very helpful during an emergency event. As part of its broader communications plan, council should develop a media and communications policy for use during an emergency and through longer term recovery, with an appropriate spokesperson identified. This should also include a process for ensuring consistent communications from all parts of the organisation, including the Mayor and councillors.
Unlike some other interstate and international jurisdictions, the Mayor and councillors do not have operational roles in emergency management. During an emergency the role of the Mayor and councillors is to communicate with and advocate on behalf of their local community.
Types of information council might deliver could include: preparation advice ahead of a period of high risk notification of community meetings and relief and recovery services details of any disruptions to council services advice regarding the availability of support, counselling or insurance services, including
the locations of relief and recovery centres general public announcements details of any public appeal for financial assistance for affected residents messages to boost community morale where it may be flagging ongoing advice in the post-emergency period advice to volunteers, where to go and what to do.
Importantly, in a multi-agency event, information relating to the emergency itself should only be issued by the spokesperson nominated by the control agency, as it may have legal ramifications.
Social Media Twitter and Facebook can be powerful communication tools and have been successfully used in emergencies. The time to establish a council’s online presence is before an emergency event. Waiting until an emergency occurs is too late – the time and effort it will take council staff to establish an effective, targeted Twitter or Facebook profile would be better spent responding to the emergency. Councils should integrate emergency management into new or established social media communications strategies.

PART 11 APPENDICES: 2017 – 2019 APPENDIX LRole of CEOs, Mayors & Councillors in Emergency Management
Following an Emergency Event
Relief and RecoveryAfter (and often during) an emergency event, relief and recovery activities are undertaken to restore social (both individual and community), built, economic and natural environments. Depending on the nature of the emergency, recovery can take months and often years.
One of council’s largest emergency management responsibilities is the coordination of emergency relief and recovery services at the local level. Emergency relief services and activities, and the nominated agencies responsible for providing these at the local level must be designated in the Municipal Emergency Management Plan (MEMP). If an emergency event exceeds the council’s capacity to provide these services, it should be escalated to the DHS region for assistance.
CEOs that have experienced natural disasters in their municipalities advise that the best way of delivering recovery services is to ensure that the council promotes recovery with the community, rather than imposing recovery onto the community.
In the longer term, critical strategic issues that may emerge include ongoing financial viability, staff fatigue and staff turnover.
Existing and Emerging Leaders
Issue Date: December 2018Revision 2 – September 2018
Key Considerations relief and recovery are key leadership roles for councils. Recovery may be a long
process and can last years. be sure to recognise when you and your council need help, ask for assistance early
and do not try and go it alone put time and effort into setting up enduring systems of operations across all aspects of
recovery – remember all four pillars of recovery; the social (community), built, economic and natural environments – and plan accordingly. Make sure regional and state arrangements are understood and supportive.
financial assistance through DTF and other sources is available. Initiate this action early in the process.
closely monitor the health and wellbeing of staff and councillors, ensure support is readily available and routinely offered
maintain close contact with key stakeholders and realise that for some time you will be running two businesses, the normal business of council and the business of recovery
emergency events change people and new leaders emerge. Be prepared to vary traditional approaches to ensure effective leadership and direction amongst staff and in the community.
look after yourself and take appropriate time out and rest.

PART 11 APPENDICES: 2017 – 2019 APPENDIX LRole of CEOs, Mayors & Councillors in Emergency Management
When recovery activities are underway, the CEO should take the opportunity to look beyond traditional sources of community leadership, by exploring existing community groups, organisations and individuals that can adapt to assist with recovery efforts. For example, the local bush nurse, a sporting or service club, or a cultural activity organisation could be a source of informal or non-traditional leadership to help guide community recovery in real and valuable ways.
Natural Disaster Financial AssistanceThe Victorian Department of Treasury and Finance provides Natural Disaster Financial Assistance (NDFA) for local councils to assist in the recovery process and alleviate some of the financial burden that may be experienced following a natural disaster. Financial assistance is available for approved emergency protection works and the approved restoration of municipal and other essential public assets. Up-front payments are available in some cases. Details regarding eligibility criteria and lodging a claim for financial assistance are available via the DTF website, www.dtf.vic.gov.au
Dignitaries and High-Profile VisitorsDuring a prolonged or major emergency event, it is not unusual for the CEO to become the contact point for other levels of executive government, particularly in relation to ministerial visits and direct assistance. Visits from dignitaries, ministers and other high-profile people can be complex and all-consuming and include considerations such as hosting, briefing, safety, logistics and media management. The CEO should factor this in to their anticipated time commitments during an emergency event and delegate some of these tasks whenever possible.

PART 11 APPENDICES: 2017 – 2019 APPENDIX LRole of CEOs, Mayors & Councillors in Emergency Management
Role of Mayor and Councillors in Emergency Management
Under Victorian law, councils are required to assist with local planning and preparation for emergency events. The result of the emergency planning process should be a coherent and easily understood Municipal Emergency Management Plan (MEMP). The multi-agency Municipal Emergency Management Planning Committee (MEMPC) is responsible for preparing the MEMP.
The MEMP is a multi-agency plan for the municipal district. It is not only a council plan. However, under current arrangements, the plan will come to council for final endorsement and council is responsible for making sure the plan is compliant when audited. All agencies, MEMPC members, the Mayor and councillors, senior council officers and all staff who have emergency management responsibilities should be familiar with the contents of the MEMP.
The pressure of an emergency event can strain relationships, so building solid and strategic local connections can prove to be invaluable before, during and after an emergency event. It is also important to remember that every person reacts differently to the stress of an emergency situation.
During an Emergency EventIssue Date: December 2018Revision 2 – September 2018
As a council, key areas of governance that relate to emergency management include: consideration of the Municipal Emergency Management Plan (MEMP) produced
by the multi-agency Municipal Emergency Management Planning Committee (MEMPC)
ensuring council emergency management planning and business continuity planning are complementary and support good governance and operations
ensuring health, safety and wellbeing policies within council provides support and pastoral care for senior officers and council staff, including the CEO and councillors, during and after an emergency
other policies that relate to community support during emergencies.
Councillors can expect to see reports to council on: designations of bushfire Neighbourhood Safer Places mitigation works that relate to emergency management, including capital works
and maintenance planning and building issues, some of which may have emergency management
and community safety implications provision of emergency management facilities and decisions about critical
infrastructure detailed planning for recovery following an emergency event media protocols relating to emergency response and recovery (including social
media).

PART 11 APPENDICES: 2017 – 2019 APPENDIX LRole of CEOs, Mayors & Councillors in Emergency Management
The Mayor and councillors do not have an operational or response role during an emergency. The council’s municipal emergency management officers have operational responsibilities and legislative obligations they need to carry out. Councillors should assist them by steering clear of operational areas, while staying informed of the situation.
The role of the Mayor and councillors in emergency management is quite different. Councillors do not usually play a prominent role in an emergency event.
Issue Date: December 2018Revision 2 – September 2018
Do’s and Don’ts – Handy HintsHere are a few quick suggestions for mayors to remember during an emergency:
Do: work in close partnership with the CEO and their key emergency management officers. Mayors and councillors can be a conduit between the community and council.
Do: seek information from internal council briefings, seek daily briefings if possible
Do: provide approved comments to the media if requested. Always check in with the CEO first for the latest information.
Do: ensure that your media comments relate to representing the views of the community, not operational matters
Do: help boost community morale where it may be flagging Do: be consistent and follow-up Do: be patient. Information on what is happening and the impact of an emergency
takes time to assess and verify. Do: explain to residents that the council isn’t “running” the emergency; it plays a
support and facilitation role. Don’t: enter operational areas. The best place for the Mayor during an
emergency is among the community, not in council operational spaces. Don’t: try to take command of the situation. Emergency management officers
have statutory responsibilities they must carry out in an emergency event. Don’t: bypass existing communication and incident command structures Don’t: give answers other than current facts, especially when speaking to the
media or residents.

PART 11 APPENDICES: 2017 – 2019 APPENDIX LRole of CEOs, Mayors & Councillors in Emergency Management
Media and CommunicationsIf the Mayor is the council’s nominated spokesperson, they can play a helpful and prominent role before, during and after an emergency event by providing approved comments and information to the community and media. This should be done in close consultation with the CEO or their delegated communications/emergency management officer.
It is vital that the Mayor always ensures s/he is fully briefed before making media comments. Comments to the media should focus on representing the community’s needs and views, not operational matters relating to the emergency.
If the Mayor is the council’s nominated spokesperson, other types of information they might deliver could include:
preparation of advice ahead of a period of high risk notification of community meetings and relief and recovery services details of any disruptions to council services advice regarding the availability of support, counselling or insurance services,
including locations of relief and recovery centres general public announcements details of any public appeal for financial assistance for affected residents.
Any media comments should be drafted in consultation with the council’s communications/emergency management staff with the necessary approvals.
Importantly, in a multi-agency event, specific crisis management information should only be issued by the spokesperson nominated by the control agency as it is likely to relate to technicalities of the emergency and may have legal ramifications.
Communication is a two way street. The Mayor may also receive vital information from local residents that should be passed on to the emergency management team via the CEO. This ensures that information coming from the community is collated to enable the best possible decision-making. Accurate information about the emergency and the impact on the community will also be necessary if the Mayor is advocating to other levels of government or other agencies for assistance for the community. Advocacy should be done in consultation with the CEO, who will be gathering information and receiving advice from a range of internal and external sources.

PART 11 APPENDICES: 2017 – 2019 APPENDIX LRole of CEOs, Mayors & Councillors in Emergency Management
Establishing good working relationships with local media during non-emergency times can prove very helpful during an emergency event.
Relationships with State and Federal MinistersThe Mayor can also play a linking role to other levels of executive government, working with the CEO on this action. However it is important not to take pre-emptive action (and thereby disturb existing procedures).
Following an Emergency Event
At the local level, councils have a long-established role in coordinating the provision of relief and recovery services to their communities, and the expectation of this important function is increasing. The recovery period that follows an event can last from months to years. In the aftermath of an emergency event, the Mayor should monitor recovery activities and maintain their strong engagement with and advocacy for the community.
Moral Support and Pastoral CareThere may be an opportunity for the Mayor and councillors to boost morale or provide comfort to residents affected by an emergency event. This should be done in consultation with the CEO, who will liaise with the emergency management team to determine what would be most helpful.
Public Appeal for Financial AssistanceIn consultation with the CEO or their delegate, the Mayor can be the public face of an appeal for financial assistance from the wider public.
The Mayor can act as the focal point for queries from service clubs and community groups that may wish to support an appeal or start their own. This focal point for queries is important because during past emergency events, these organisations have sometimes expended significant amounts of well-intentioned energy gathering goods that are not actually required by the community in crisis.
It is usually far more useful that willing residents/organisations donate financial assistance or time rather than goods.
