Polk County’s Extreme Temperature Plan: Keep Warm This Winter

As the winter season sets in and temperatures drop, Polk County has implemented its extreme temperature plan to ensure residents stay safe and warm during these colder months.

With temperatures officially deemed unsafe, community members are encouraged to take advantage of the resources available to them.

Ensuring Safety in Cold Weather

When the thermometer dips to unwelcoming lows, it's critical for individuals, especially those who may be vulnerable to the cold, to have access to safe environments. Polk County has recognized this need and has activated its plan to provide community members with several heating centers.
