Two devastating fires, a severe windstorm and a major water main break are among the events last year that forced the city to activate their emergency management plan.
Bruce Burrell, director of Calgary’s Emergency Management Agency, says the response team had a good year.
Burrell tells The Calgary Sun a new emergency operation centre in Crescent Heights helped them respond to major events.
The cost to respond to emergency events last year racked up to more than $670,000.
