Emergency Management

Emergency Management

Emergency events can occur at any time with little warning, rapidly spread over designated boundaries, and cause diverse and widespread impacts across affected communities.

The City of Holdfast Bay can help to minimise these threats and contribute to the safety and well-being of its community by participating in local emergency management alongside neighbouring councils. The City of Holdfast Bay is committed to emergency management planning and ensures that the council has a coordinated and planned approach to managing emergencies.

For the purpose of emergency management, South Australia is divided into 11 Emergency Management Zones. The City of Holdfast Bay is part of the Southern Adelaide Zone with our neighbouring councils: the Cities of Onkaparinga, Mitcham, and Marion. Key Hazards and Risks relevant to the Southern Adelaide Zone have been assessed and summarised in the Southern Adelaide Zone Emergency Management Plan.

The following website links and emergency apps provide contact details and information on emergency incidents.
