Missouri City Launches New Web Site to Assist Its Citizens During Hurricane Season

9 07 2010

With Hurricane Season under way, Missouri City is prepared to provide residents with vital updates on our emergency information website: missouricityready.com.

At the July 6 City Council meeting, Emergency Management Coordinator John Sheffield briefed members on the website, which was launched last year. “We are prepared and ready to respond should a disaster strike,” he said during the presentation.

The site serves as a primary source of public information during any natural or man-made disaster affecting the City, including hurricanes. The website offers tips and strategies for preparing homes, businesses and families for emergencies, links to websites of other emergency management agencies, weather, traffic and other emergency alerts and information on how to take care of special needs or pets during disasters.

Residents can also logon to the site and sign up to receive news releases and notifications via email. A link to missouricityready.com is available on the City’s home page, www.missouricitytx.gov, under the “Quick Links” tab.
