Leduc’s Emergency Management Bylaw directs the City’s emergency operations response under the Emergency Management Act.

This bylaw establishes the City’s Emergency Advisory Committee and the Leduc Emergency Management Agency (LEMA). The Fire Chief fills the role of Director of Emergency Management.

The Emergency Advisory Committee:

  • Advises on and guides the development and implementation of Leduc’s emergency management plan and program
  • Can declare a state of local emergency
  • Includes the Mayor, one other appointed Council member and the City Manager

The Leduc Emergency Management Agency (LEMA):

  • Provides training, exercises, community awareness, and regional collaboration
  • Maintains the City’s municipal emergency plan
  • Mitigates factors like preventable events and prepares appropriate responses if an unforeseen situation occurs
  • Includes municipal departments, allied agencies, and public stakeholders to provide diverse and inclusive perspectives on the City’s emergency management program to serve the well-being of the community
  • Is directed by the Director of Emergency Management

Disasters and Emergencies

Disasters and emergencies can take the form of severe weather events (tornadoes, extreme cold, severe storms, etc.), water contamination, hazardous chemical exposure, pandemics, wildfires, and floods.

Emergency Notification

When lives are in immediate or imminent danger, the City of Leduc will send an alert through the Alberta Emergency Alert System, describing the threat and the action required. Further updates or information on less urgent situations will be provided on the City’s website and social media channels.

Recovery and Relief

If you need support after an emergency or are looking to assist others, the City’s Family and Community Support Services team provides resources to help you get back on your feet.

Personal Preparedness

While the City is preparing for emergencies that impact our community, there are several things residents can do to help prepare themselves and their families.

Every household should have an emergency kit. This kit should be properly labelled and packed with items for at least 72 hours.

For more tips, review the AEMA “Be Prepared” resources from the Province.
