The meeting was rich with information exchange:
A few announcements
Good byes to Mark Menne
Presentation by Chief Turbeville on how to read an incident map (the links from the chat included in the notes and the link to the recording)
Presentation of some of the COPE survey data especially regarding communication. Here is the pdf.

Again, lots of robust info shared in the chat can be found in the meeting notes.

Quilts
Quilts have been generously donated by the Moonlight Quilters of Sonoma County. If you have not contacted me about fire survivors in your area, please do. We will be distributing some of the quilts soon. It will take time to get them all made. We would love to give one to everyone who has lost a home.
If you are so moved to donate to the guild here is their website.
