In addition to the Emergency Operations Center, the Administrative Services Center (hurricane rated to Category 5) next door to City Hall houses 12 dorm rooms and some support resources (showers/kitchen). In the event of a hurricane, emergency personnel will work alternating 12 hour shifts and stay on site before, during, and after a storm. While it is not easy to leave family behind, that affords us the opportunity to respond quickly to whatever aftermath we encounter. It isn’t the Four Seasons, but it will suffice.
