SAFETY & SECURITY COMMITTEE (SSC)
Emergency Preparedness Plan ( January 2024)
Appendix A ORPS Resident Duties
● Make a plan to manage the hazards on your lot - know your power and propane shutoffs. ● Determine a pre-arranged meeting place if your family is separated. ● Think about an evacuation route, in the unlikely event it is safer outside the resort. ● Keep full fresh water in your freshwater tanks. Disinfect tanks at least annually. ● Maintain a dedicated and easily accessible emergency kit in your RV. ● Pack extra flashlights, batteries, chargers, a portable radio, duct tape, and even matches and candles in your emergency kit. ● Keep on hand higher levels of food, meds, and pet food to ensure a seven day supply. ● Have cash on hand - in ones and fives - in case the banking system is down. ● Think about warm clothing and blankets - can you keep warm without power? ● Local radio stations are: AM 920 1010 1140 FM 104.7 106.1 96.7 They will have the best local information. ● Choose one out of state contact who can collect information on each member of your family, because sometimes out of state phone lines work best. ● Use texting if phone calls don’t work, it uses much less bandwidth than voice or video calls. ● Check your first aid supplies - add more if your supply is low or has missing items. ● Keep enough fuel in vehicles to evacuate ORPS if required. ● Check on the safety of ten (10) closest neighbors. Likewise, neighbors will do the same. ● Residents who are able should transport themselves and others to the first aid treatment area for assistance as needed. The first aid treatment area will likely be located at the La Palma Clubhouse. ● For additional information during an emergency event contact the ORPS Command Post (likely at the LaPalma Clubhouse) or the security team at the main entry.
