Be Smart, Be R.E.A.D.Y.     Residents Emergency Assistance Dispatch (For & By) You

You never know when a disaster will strike.

Are you READY for a fire, earthquake, or other disaster? READY is your resident volunteer disaster team. Our goal is to provide help and information when needed to all our residents in the event of a major emergency. Having a “plan of action” can help. Professional emergency services may not be readily available. The San Marcos emergency radio station is AM 1610.
