OSWEGO – The Oswego County Legislature’s Public Safety Committee presented a proclamation to staff from the county’s Emergency Management Office designating September as Disaster Preparedness Month.

Communities across the county have experienced emergencies and disasters caused by flooding, high wind and severe weather.

This designation is a good reminder for residents to make an emergency plan and prepare their families, homes, businesses and communities for the such occasions.

Early planning and preparedness will improve the community’s resiliency and recovery efforts.

Be prepared
