Proposed Mission Statement for the SWNI NET Team
November 10, 2006 - 6:31pm — Dennis Siegman
Recognizing that there are emergency preparedness situations which may not directly impact specfiic neighborhood, but rather SWNI, or the City of Portland as a whole, the SWNI Emergency Preparedness Committee has formed the SWNI NET Team. The SWNI NET Team will be available to respond to incidents such as floods, windstorms, public speaking requests and recruitment opportunities as requested by SWNI, POEM or Portland Fire Bureau.Note: This is just a proposal. Your input is both solicited and appreciated.

SWNI NET
why is there a creation of another NET team? There are already teams covering the area, divided by Fire Mangement Areas. This proposal was not approved by the city of Portland. POEM will not let a team be responsible to a Neighborhood coalition. Any members recruited would reduce membership on legitimate teams and create confusion about who has authority. It sounds like someone wants authority over all NET's in SW. You can be sure that it will not be SWNI.
