Emergency Management

We assist all emergency response agencies to ensure that the resources required for a safe and effective response and/or recovery are made available to the citizens of New Berlin. The department works with county, state, and federal agencies to ensure that all recovery resources are made available, including after the fact grants, loans, and public assistance programs.

The Emergency Management Department is also tasked with the responsibility of training and familiarizing the citizens of New Berlin to help them avoid becoming victims of man-made or natural disaster

Please visit the Municipal Code Chapter 24, Emergency Management for more information.
