The Culture of Preparedmess
San Francisco must be prepared to survive and respond to such a calamity with only the resources available at the time, and to recover quickly in the days and weeks afterward, restoring vital infrastructure and the economy. As San Francisco’s major citizens planning organization, SPUR’s (San Francisco Planning and Urban Research Association’s) mission is to promote good planning and good government. In keeping with that mission, SPUR is examining the readiness of the City and County of San Francisco to protect its population in the event of such a disaster.
