<br />II. General Statement of City Service Priorities in the Event of Pandemic <br />Influenza: <br /> <br />Should there in fact be an outbreak of Pandemic Influenza the City of Centerville <br />will move into a "Pandemic Emeraencv Operations Mode" whereby the <br />following six priorities will take precedence of other all other City operations: <br /> <br />1. Ensure that potable water is being pumped into the City's Water <br />Tower(s). Depending on severity of Pandemic the City may <br />restrict use of water to only fire fighting and limited domestic use, <br />with limited to access for other uses such as lawn watering, car <br />washing, etc. <br /> <br />2. Ensure that sanitary lift stations are functioning and drawn down, <br />if necessary via the use of portable electric generation or septic <br />contractors if available. <br /> <br />3. Ensure that City streets (specifically Priority Routes) are passable <br />to emergency vehicles; this may require the assistance of Anoka <br />County or other communities in the event of a significant <br />snowfall. <br /> <br />4. Ensure general peace and order are preserved. Work with other <br />jurisdictions, National Guard, etc. <br /> <br />5. Ensure fire fighting services are available (Centennial Fire <br />District) <br /> <br />6. Act in concert with Anoka County or other coordinating health <br />agencies to distribute possible antiviral medications or other <br />available vaccine(s) if available. <br /> <br />Beyond these priorities; general City operations will be suspended until further <br />notice. The City Council will determine at what stage the City moves into this <br />Pandemic Emeraencv Operations Mode. Should the City Council not be able <br />to make such determination, the City's Emergency Management Coordinator <br />may make this determination after consultation with the City Administrator if <br />available. <br /> <br />Under this Mode, the City Administrator and the Emergency Management <br />Coordinator may take meaningful and necessary steps to respond to the <br />Pandemic Emergency where possible but consistent with the six priorities and <br />applicable law <br /> <br />Page 5 of 18 <br />
