Emergency Contact List Update

The Town of Readfield has an Emergency Operations Plan to ensure timely and effective responses to any disasters that might confront our community.  The plan includes a contact list of residents who might need a check-in or assistance during an emergency situation. 

Community members are encouraged to complete a voluntary Emergency Contact Form (also available in hard-copy at the Town Office) to inform Town staff and emergency personnel that they or another community member may be at increased risk during severe weather events, prolonged power outages, or other emergencies. Examples of community members who might need a check-in or assistance during an emergency situation include those with special medical needs, powered medical equipment, mobility issues, isolated locations, or anyone with general concern for their safety or wellbeing during emergencies.  Names and contact information are kept confidential and are used exclusively to perform check-ins during emergency situations. 

If you are signing up a friend or neighbor, please check the appropriate box so we can contact the individual and confirm their interest in being on the list.

Finally, if you're interested in volunteering to assist town staff and emergency personnel in making emergency contacts please fill out the "Volunteer" section at the bottom of the form.

Taking care of everyone in our community is something Readfield does well, and is something I am personally grateful for this Thanksgiving.

Thank you, and be safe!

Eric Dyer,
Town Manager
