Don’t forget that the various public works departments are also first responders. In fact, without PW crews the rest of the first responders would not be able to get around and do their important work. PW clears the roads, establishes electric, gets the facilities back in order to operate and many more services. When public works does their job, they are nearly invisible. Please thank the state’s invisible hero’s. www.tampabaytraining.com

TROPICAL STORM HELENE

BE PREPARED!
During a disaster, safety is the main concern. Hillsborough County is urging businesses to prepare for the approaching storm:

Review Business Continuity Plans to ensure the safety of employees and property.
Confirm that all employees are aware of their hurricane preparedness plan and their individual responsibilities.
Monitor relevant emergency management news for weather and safety updates.

Document property - photographs and inventory lists should be compiled prior to the storm. These can be used as insurance evidence for damage assessments after the storm.
If an evacuation is ordered, businesses owners should secure their businesses and follow instructions by local emergency management on evacuation orders. Remember, if your local emergency management officials order an evacuation and you decide to remain in your business, emergency responders will not be able to respond to you during the disaster. You and your employees will be on your own until the storm passes and first responders are able to secure the area.

Get Connected. Stay Alert.
For more information on Hillsborough County’s response to Tropical Storm Helene, visit HCFL.gov/StaySafe and sign up for the HCFL Alert system. Additionally, you can follow Hillsborough County on social media at Facebook, X, and Neighbors for updates.

Residents without digital access are encouraged to call (813) 272-5900, the County's main information line.
