NEW BUSINESS a) Critique of the Annual Training Exercise- Mark Alison - Thought it was a good exercise. It opened our eyes as to what needs to be adjusted. Need to move the radio antenna. Logistically, there needs to be a designated runner. Alison signed up for Emergency Information Officer course. Closing the loop is very important. Adrienne- Thought it was very helpful to have insight as to how ARES works including understanding there is a time lag between messaging. She has some GPS locating devices with staff in remote areas and they have now done some retraining in this area. All managers know how these work. Adrienne will be taking the same course as Alison. It is making them look into how we need to have infrastructure in place in their building. Not just about message communication, we can send small files as well. It created possibilities. Gary - Thought that the amateur radio people are a good idea and recognized that there is a time lag in closing the loop on the communications. Colleen - Found it informative and thought the radio was great. Liz - Saw it as a great opportunity in building relationships. Angelique - Realized it is important to be clear and concise in how it is related. Kevin - Thought it was a good opportunity in how to put it on screen and see it in real time. David M - Liked the fact we actually went through the exercise. David G – Thought it was very good and noticed it was hard to prioritize. Paul – It was a fabulous opportunity to work with EM Comm, to involve all townships. Mark did a terrific job, he is so keen on Emergency Management, Paul would like to formally thank him with a letter on file Action Item- Paul will thank Mark b) Confirm CEMC and Alternates- Mark There will be no changes. Paul, Dave and Mark c) Confirm Program Committee Membership- Mark
