The plan aims to organise teams, protect workers and service users, and maintain healthcare during disasters as the city prepares for possible El Niño effects. The city also published a flood-health pocket guide and said sanitary-surveillance staff trained shelter coordinators in food handling. These are preparedness measures and guidance resources, rather than evidence that a new disaster has occurred or future disruption has been eliminated. ## Data ### Source publication Publication of the official announcement on 30 October 2026.
