Let's prepare our region for cyclone season

As we move into cyclone season there are things we can all do to prepare and keep yourself, your family and your home safe.
A few helpful tips from NT Police, Fire & Emergency Services (https://securent.nt.gov.au/)

• Trim tree tops and branches well clear of your home 
• Clear your property of loose material that could blow about and possibly cause injury or damage during extreme winds
• In case of a storm surge/tidal warning, or other flooding, know your nearest safe high ground and the safest access route to it
• Prepare an emergency kit that can sustain every member of the household for at least 72 hours.

Council will be undertaking pre-cyclone clean-ups across all of our communities so community members can dispose of any hard rubbish that may become a risk in the cyclone season. 
As Council staff members please spread the word around our communities and help your colleagues, family and neighbours stay safe this cyclone season.
