Local Governments

Local governments will be involved in every aspect of pandemic planning within their jurisdictions as well as coordinating pandemic planning with other localities, agencies, and organizations within Lane County, in neighboring counties and in the State.

Local governments are planning, cooperating and preparing now to maintain government services and support to the residents of Lane County during a pandemic. The Lane Preparedness Coalition is one example of the collaborative efforts which are taking place throughout Lane County in preparation for a pandemic.
