The plan outlines how Easthampton would prepare for and respond to hazards; Fire Chief Norris said it has changed very little over the past five years. Committee members requested updates to some wording and information about how the plan would be shared with residents, including CODE RED and reverse 911 alerts. The committee also raised flooding and pedestrian-safety concerns on Cottage Street and planned further review of traffic rules and a difficult-to-see stop sign at West Street and Loudville Road.
