The Milford Village Business Association has taken on the important role of forming an emergency response management group for the Milford catchment. This is in response to the problems that arose from the terrible flooding Auckland suffered last year. Every community is asked to stand up a local team.
I have invited many local organisations to meet and set up a high-level group using a template that has been used in many other communities. If you are part of a group or organisation that would like to be involved, please email “MERM” to manager@milfordshops.co.nz. Please, no individuals (it must be an organisation) and just to be clear, this has nothing to do with resolving the outstanding issues from those disastrous floods.
This is not creating another bureaucratic organisation, but rather a phone tree using WhatsApp that enables the community to get hold of wide variety of resources for whatever emergency arises. It is not intended to be an organisation that has regular meetings with ‘make-believe’ scenarios. Just a practical group of organisations that can be mobilised at short notice, as and when required.
