November is recognized as Native American Heritage Month. This month is a time to honor and appreciate the rich cultures, traditions and contributions of Indigenous people to our country and community.

Happy World Communication Week 2023!
In the first week of November, we celebrate communication in all its forms. Telecommunicators, also known as 9-1-1 Call-Takers and Dispatchers, rely on large satellites, cell towers, and phone systems in order to communicate with the public.
Telecommunicators have a unique communication style because while asking important questions, they must rely on their auditory skills to help keep first responders safe. When hired, they take a hearing test because, in an emergency, they won’t be able to pick up on anything visual, like facial cues or physical warning signs. Simply hearing a smoke alarm, tires squealing, or someone crying in the background can provide important clues for first responders.
If you call 911, remember to stay on the line until the Calltaker says it’s okay to disconnect, they just might hear something that could save your life.

Eric joined the service at 19 and was a Navy corpsman combat medic on the USS Comstock, and he served with Martine Unit 3rd LAR out of 29Palms CA. Eric was also deployed to Bosnia with Fleet Hospital 6 with joint NATO Command during the Bosnian and Persian Gulf Wars.
Once he left the Navy, he worked at a rehabilitation hospital helping wounded veterans and civilians.
Now Eric is a Shift Lead with Plano 911 and he continues to answer the call of public service and leadership.
Thank you for all you do Eric, we salute you!

Water from the crested Rowlett Creek is rushing into the lake at Oak Point Park & Nature Preserve, as seen from this video taken earlier today. Please be extra cautious when walking on the concrete trails and try to avoid flooded areas like these in our parks until the water has receded. Thank you! City of Plano, Texas Government Plano 911
Dear park patrons and general adventurers: Please use extreme caution before entering areas or using facilities that remain affected by the wet conditions. Most parks generally remain open, but understand that many of Plano's parks are located within flood plains, and creeks are cresting. If you do go out, make sure you are properly attired and use extreme caution due to standing water and soft and slippery conditions.

Some wildlife have also been displaced, so snakes and other animals may be encountered. In addition, mowing or any work requiring large or heavy equipment on turf or in natural areas may be delayed due to wet conditions. City of Plano, Texas Government Plano 911
With flooding and severe weather expected to continue this week, it's important to make sure your pets are prepared. Don't forget the furbabies when making your disaster plan and emergency kit! Plano 911 Plano Animal Shelter Plano Moms
