(Jay Corella/The Astorian)Astoria adopted its 2026 emergency operations plan on July 20, finishing a three-year process with other communities across Clatsop County. “If they have our plan, they may be able to do things that make it difficult to put our specific plans in place,” Crutchfield said. The bigger pictureAstoria didn’t update its plan in a vacuum — the cities of Cannon Beach and Seaside plus Clatsop County all updated their Emergency Preparedness plans at the same time. Crutchfield said the structure of the plans would all be the same, but the information is community — or county — specific. The updated plans put all the emergency plans in sync with each other.
