Emergency Preparedness

In the event of an earthquake or other natural disaster, are you prepared? Everyone should be ready to provide for their own needs for a minimum of 72 hours. Natural disasters can happen at any time. Your potential for survival is greatly increased by being prepared. You will find links for emergency preparedness on this page to help you with your planning.

The City of Coronado has several resources dedicated to emergencies:
