Emergency & Safety
Wildfire, flood, and boil-water alerts are rare. The City keeps the information, contacts, and prep resources you need before, during, and after.
Concept demonstration
On the worst night of a fire season, a communications officer should not be making eleven separate edits under pressure. In this pattern, one switch does it all:
The demonstration follows you across the site until you end it here or from the banner control. Nothing about it is real: Silvermere is a fictional city.
Featured hub
Silvermere’s full preparedness hub: Silvermere Alert Alert sign-up, the 72-hour grab-and-go kit, the Evacuation Preparedness guide, the Emergency Preparedness Guidebook, and the partners who respond when something happens (Emergency Management BC, BC Ambulance, RDWH, Silvermere Society for Search and Rescue, Canadian Red Cross, the Silvermere School District, ESS).
What the hub covers
Preparedness by hazard
Wildfire
Free FireSmart assessments are offered May through September. Reduce risk with defensible space, fire-resistant landscaping, and a family evacuation plan.

Seasonal snowmelt can push Silver Lake and the creeks beyond normal. Know your flood zone, sign up for Silvermere Alert, and have a kit ready.
