Wolf Administration Encourages Pennsylvanians to 
“Resolve to be Ready” 
by Planning for Emergencies in the New Year

As the decade draws to a close and millions of Pennsylvanians’ thoughts turn toward the positive changes they want to see in their lives, Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency (PEMA) Director Randy Padfield is encouraging citizens to “Resolve to be Ready” in 2020 by creating family emergency plans and emergency kits.

“The single, most effective way to ensure the safety of your loved ones during an emergency situation is to have a plan,” Padfield said. “Being prepared and knowing ahead of time how to react are critical elements of emergency response training. You can do the same by practicing your plan and having a basic emergency kit.”

Padfield said to create an emergency plan, you should:

• Identify locations in both your community and in a nearby town, where you can meet loved ones;
• Identify an out-of-town contact everyone can check in with;
• Text or use social media to let others know you are safe and where you are;
• Have hard copies of lists of phone numbers and other important information such as doctor’s offices as well as copies of important documents; and
• Practice your plan just like you would a fire drill.

A basic emergency kit should include enough basic supplies to support your loved ones for several days. Padfield said it should include:

• One gallon of water per person per day;
• Non-perishable food and a manual can opener;
• Vital medical supplies, hearing aid batteries or other medical equipment and mobility devices you may need;
• Specialized items such as baby supplies and pet care products;
• First aid kit;
• Hand-crank or battery operated flashlights and radio;
• Car cell phone chargers or battery packs;
• Special toys or supplies to keep children and pets occupied and busy.

Additional resources, including emergency plan templates and emergency kit checklists, are available on the ReadyPA website. Padfield also encourages social media users to follow PEMA on Facebook and Twitter for timely emergency preparedness information. It’s important to note that you do not need to have a Facebook or Twitter account to access the information.

Washington Township, PA – On November 12, 2019, the Washington Township Board of Supervisors was notified that it had been awarded a $1 million Multimodal Transportation Fund (MTF) grant for the continued extension of the Washington Township Boulevard.  The grant was one of 141 awarded by the Commonwealth Financing Authority (CFA) for multimodal transportation projects throughout the Commonwealth. The MTF grant funds will assist the Township in continuing its efforts of constructing a major relief route that provides improved connectivity, addresses existing safety concerns, and provides transportation infrastructure to support new commercial, housing and retail development in the greater Waynesboro community.

“This project has been an ongoing priority for the Township. On behalf of the Board of Supervisors, I would like to thank our state elected officials, especially Senator Mastriano, for their continued advocacy and efforts in helping to secure this grant,” said Chad Reichard, Chairman.

“These are important projects that will bolster community safety and bring new life to an important property,” said Senator Doug Mastriano (R). “Anytime a municipality receives grant funding, it is a win-win situation for the 33^rd Senate District – it shows that our local governments and stakeholders are forward thinking with their initiatives, foresight and planning.”

The grant will help the Township continue the progress it has made over the last decade on the construction of a large-scale municipal transportation relief route known as the Washington Township Boulevard.  Once complete, the Boulevard will provide an important alternate route around Waynesboro, relieving congestion along State Route 16 (SR 16). The improvements to be funded by the MTF grant include paving from Gehr Road (T-384) to Tomstown Road (SR 2015), and promoting multimodal travel through the construction of an 8-foot wide pedestrian and bicyclist path in the right-of-way on the Boulevard.

“One of the main goals of this project is to improve safety throughout the area, act as a main connector from the north to four major commercial areas just outside of Waynesboro, and provide direct access to residential developments in the area,” stated township manager Jeff Geesaman.

The MTF Program is funded through revenue from the 2013 Transportation Bill (Act 89-2013).

Please send any questions or comments to Jeff Geesaman, Township Manager at jbg@washtwp-franklin.org.
