Lexington public safety commissioner shares lessons learned from March 3 storms

Lexington’s public safety commissioner says within days of the March 3^rd storms that battered the Bluegrass, city organizations were working on an after-action report. Ken Armstrong briefed the urban county council earlier this week. He said one finding is that having the Emergency Operations Center operate virtually, as many cities do, did not work as well as hoped.

“So we've changed that we're only going to do it in person, which, you know, up to this point, we had always kind of done it that way on most events anyway. So it was something that was tried, probably prematurely, I will admit that. Also, we didn't know to what scale this windstorm was going to be.”
