\u2022 Ed Bohn \u2013 EMA, Red Cross, Keith Parrill, Senior Disaster Program Manager\/Ohio Buckeye Region – Mr. Bohn, along with Mr. Parrill met with the Commissioners to discuss the Red Cross organizing a chapter here in Paulding County.\u00a0 Mr. Parrill commented that the Red Cross is completely neutral utilizing local resources, until we run out.\u00a0 We are not first responders. We have had more volunteers join the Red Cross in five months then we\u2019ve had in the last five years.\u00a0 Our disaster volunteers are not free labor. We test like crazy to make sure we\u2019re prepared. The State of Ohio is accountable for mass care. The Red Cross is pretty good at mass care.\u00a0 We have a national hotline.\u00a0 Our standards are to show up within an hour. The Red Cross\u2019 job is to make you look good.\u00a0 We are good at what we do.\u00a0 We lost volunteers. We went from 1100 to 600, some of which do not want to take the additional training. We don\u2019t do businesses, we do residential. As you get out to residential, we share our information with our partners. We track everything spent on the Red Cross. A lot of this is driven financially of what we are capable of and what we can do financially. We get the resources to you early, scale up early and scale up often. We don\u2019t have that many volunteers that live in Paulding County. In the next 60 days, you\u2019ll accept APPS on your phone to identify Red Cross shelters.\u00a0 Our ultimate goal is to take care of the client and protect our donor dollars. Client recovery is what the money is used for. We cannot be responsible for what people use the funds received for. We won\u2019t come to a scene unless you call us. The Red Cross is not going anywhere, but we are stepping back. Our emergency operations plan states that the Red Cross, for a disaster, will still be there. Commissioner Zartman commented to Mr. Parrill that he appreciates the Red Cross assisting our community.<\/p>\n
\u2022 Ed Bohn, EMA – Mr. Bohn continued a discussion with the Commissioners moving forward with Emergency Response Plan. Mr. Bohn will be meeting with the School Boards about the Emergency Response Plan. This allows for every responding agency to know where they need to be. They need to be able to become accustomed to having the response plan. All three school boards and one hundred fifty copies of the plan for the emergency responders in Paulding County total approximately $7000. Mr. Bohn advised the Commissioners that he is trying to get the grant funding reinstated. Mr. Bohn will be hosting live propane training in April.<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
