Fellow Scotts Mills-Area Residents:
In line with Marion County Citizen Corps and projects focused on Disaster Preparedness, a “Mapping Your Neighborhood” Project is underway in the Scotts Mills area. The project, in part, asks residents to advise what equipment or skills they have that could be put to use in the case of a local disaster. You may not think of yourself as having skills that could be used in a ‘community emergency,’ but even having a well stocked pantry can be surprisingly helpful! Or having a room that could be warm, dry, and comforting for someone temporarily displaced. “Mapping” also provides some contact information relative to volunteers assisting others. A prime example: If there was an emergency situation involving your residence, are there elderly or ‘handicapped’ individuals or small children that would perhaps need additional help? Are there pets that may need to be ‘rescued’ or moved temporarily?
The following information will be helpful as we look at developing a reference tool for the City, the Volunteer Neighborhood Watch/Citizen Patrol, and the Volunteer Fire Department.
Please complete the following and drop it off at 401 Crooked Finger Road, or mail it to:
