| Statewide Interest: |
| While the Town of Eatonville's Disaster Management Plan is specific to the community, the Town is a also a signatory of Orange County's Emergency Management Strategic Plan. The Eatonville Plan is designed to layer Orange County's Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan, which is layered to the State of Florida Emergency Management Plan and the Federal Response Plans. This layering (mirroring the plan's concepts an dformats) facilitates an effective mutual aid transistion for assistance when the local disaster incident escalates beyond the Town's capabilities and resources. This demonstrates that Eatonville's plan is consistent in every respect to the emergency management plans (county, state, and federal) upon which it is layered.
The primary linkages between Eatonville's Disaster Management Plan, the Orange County Comprehensive Management Plan, and the State of Florida Comprehensive Management Plan are shared and mirroreed in 20 emergency support funcitons. A number of the support funcitons relating to disaster mitigation strategies may be impacted or impeded due to the curren condition of Eatonville's Fire Station facility, which continues to expose fire station contents (apparatus, gear, communicaitons equipment) and staff to a state of significant risk. Some of these support functions would include the following areas:
. Transportation
. Communications
. Fire Services
. Information and Planning
. Health and Medical
. Search and REscue
. Hazardous Materials
