TL;DR (generated · confidence: medium)

Portland Bureau of Emergency Management decision packages include adding an Alert Warning Coordinator III position, implementing crisis information management software, and carrying forward funding for disability equity and climate mitigation programs. The bureau also plans to eliminate two positions and meet citywide enterprise efficiency reduction targets.
