== What the CRD Committee Does (and Doesn't Do) == | == What the CRD Committee Does (and Doesn't Do) == | ||
* | * The CRD Committee is an ADMINISTRATIVE committee, as opposed to concerning itself with disaster operations and response (which is the job of the NETs). | ||
* The CRD committee is STRATEGIC, as opposed to tactical (which is the job of the NETs). The CRD committee works big picture issues inside the CRD concerning community outreach and engagement, finding resources (e.g. fundraising), and identifying and completing community resilience goals. The CRD Committee can give tactical advice to its NETs, but cannot write a NET’s operations plan. | |||
* The CRD Committee will identify issues particular to its service area (e.g. hazardous material tank farms) and appoint task forces to research and make operational policy recommendations to their NETs on how the community will deal with/respond to those issues. | |||
* The CRD Committee is concerned with managing resources that are limited or unique inside the CRD service area (such as a BEECN, the HAM radio at the local fire station, or training opportunities offered by the local fire station). | |||
* Though the CRD is not a NET, NETs collaborate with the CRD. It is CRD business to monitor how many block-scale NETs are inside the CRD, how well organized they are, and how ready they are to deploy. It is CRD business to cultivate and create more NETs inside the CRD service area. The goal is for 100% of the CRD service area to be covered by block-scale NETs. |
