File Number: 12 -058 <br />Karen Langmaid from SLzUSD reported that the District is looking to expand training of their staff <br />at all levels, not just for disaster response. <br />Dan Bates from SLzUSD commented that he recently attended training for addressing the needs of <br />students with special needs, and how important it is to include disaster response planning for <br />residents with special needs. <br />Kathy Ornelas reported that an EOC drill is planned on March 16 for City EOC personnel. It will be <br />a real -time drill in that EOC participants will receive notification that "a disaster has just occurred" <br />and will be ordered to report to the EOC to determine how long it takes the organization to get the <br />EOC up and operational after an emergency has occurred. <br />Vice Mayor Gregory concurred that the real -time drill concept is valuable and should be considered <br />for schools, students and parents as well. <br />5.
