The City of Suffolk is vulnerable to a variety of environmental events that may jeopardize the continuity of City operations. In recent years the region has experienced states of emergency caused by hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, and severe winter storms. With primary evacuation routes for the entire Southside Hampton Roads and Northeastern North Carolina passing through Suffolk, it is recognized that preparedness is the foundation for ensuring the safety and wellbeing of citizens, travelers, and employees.
The City???s Department of Public Works, in conjunction with Emergency Management, Risk Management, Suffolk Fire and Rescue, and the Suffolk Police Department will train and equip a select group of full time employees (Strike Teams) to provide these services.
Strike Team vehicles specified herein will be manned by this select team of individuals.
