Emergency Services and Contact Numbers

The Emergency Management Act (Public Act 390 of the Public Acts of the State of Michigan of 1976, as amended) has been adopted as the City emergency management ordinance. Public Act 390 provides that County government is charged with the responsibility of providing emergency management services for all municipalities within the county. It also provides for an exception for those municipalities with a population in excess of 10,000 people, in which case the municipality may opt to provide its own emergency management services.

Although the City of Midland qualifies for the exception, it has chosen to allow the Midland County Emergency Services Department to provide these services for the City of Midland.

The Midland County Emergency Services Department has prepared an Emergency Services Handbook that was published in the Midland Daily News October 7, 2001 edition. Below are links to some of the information contained in the handbook.
