Program details

How it works

Scott County says its Emergency Management Agency focuses on protecting lives and property through planning, training, and education.

What the service covers

The listed services include:

  • disaster planning
  • community preparedness education
  • Community Emergency Response Team training
  • severe weather watch/spotting
  • amateur radio / emergency communications
  • flood plain management

Home hardening relevance

The page also explains how to get an E911 address and how to display house numbers so responders can locate a property in an emergency. That is operational readiness rather than a retrofit program, but it is a current county-level service relevant to disaster preparedness.

How to access

Homeowners are told to contact the Emergency Management Director for flood plain permit questions and the 911 Emergency Services Board for E911 address questions.
