In accordance with state law and the City of Keller Code of Ordinances, the mayor serves as the Emergency Management Director of the City of Keller and has appointed the fire chief to serve as the community’s Emergency Management Coordinator.

The City of Keller's Emergency Management Plan is an all-hazards approach meeting the daily threats to the city both natural and man-made. 

In addition to managing the plan, the Emergency Management Coordinator ensures that the City’s workforce training and emergency operations are in compliance with the National Incident Management System (NIMS) and conducts annual training exercises with the plan through an activation of the Keller Emergency Operations Center.

Emergency Preparedness, Mitigation, Response and Recovery are the four phases of Emergency Management.
