22.06 EMERGENCY.
Service or the level or sequence of service may be suspended during emergency conditions. An “emergency condition” is considered as one where a loss of life is probable, where serious injury has occurred, or where extensive loss of property is imminent. These conditions should be verified through the 911 dispatcher or Sheriff’s office. The County may respond to all “emergency conditions,” either during or after a snowstorm. Any person who makes a false report of an emergency to an officer, official or employee of the County or who causes a false report to be so made shall be in violation of this Code of Ordinances. Service or the level or sequence of service shall be further suspended in the event the Governor, by proclamation, implements the State Disaster Plan, or the Chairperson of the Board, by proclamation, implements the County Disaster Plan. If such occurs, the County personnel and equipment shall be immediately subject to the direction of the Governor or the Chairperson of the Board of Supervisors.
