Date & Time: March 3, 2026 – April 3, 2026
Unit(s) Responsible: Sheriff’s Emergency Services
 
Narrative:
 
Ventura County Sheriff’s Emergency Services is inviting the public to review and comment on the updated Ventura County Operational Area Emergency Operations Plan from March 3 through April 3, 2026, at 5:00 PM.
Residents, businesses, and community organizations are encouraged to take part in a virtual Town Hall on March 18, 2026, at 6:30 PM. Staff will highlight what has changed in the plan, explain why it matters, and outline how to submit comments. The meeting will also include a preview of the County’s upcoming Hazard Mitigation Plan update.
The Emergency Operations Plan serves as the County’s playbook for preparing for, responding to, and recovering from disasters. It defines roles and responsibilities, supports coordination across jurisdictions, and outlines how the Emergency Operations Center is activated during incidents.
To review the draft plan, register for the Town Hall, or submit comments, visit:

Requests should be submitted by noon on March 13, 2026, to allow time for coordination.
