expanding existing community programs; to assist in achieving and maintaining accreditation through the
Emergency Management Accreditation Program; to facilitate communication between Collier County &
State & Federal agencies on all hazards activities, as well as to enable Collier County to identify outside
resources such as grants, training opportunities and equipment. The committee members represent
various community organizations. Each member shall be considered a liaison between their respective
organization and the committee, and shall be recommended by their organization to the Board of County
Commissioners for consideration for appointment to the committee for a four year term. A list of the
current membership is included in the backup.
