Final answer:
The statement that it is important to involve your local Emergency Services when developing a Disaster Plan is true. However, Dillon's Rule actually indicates that local governments have limited autonomy, as they can only execute powers granted by the state, making the claim that it provides freedom and flexibility false.
Step-by-step explanation:
When developing a Disaster Plan, it is important to involve your local Emergency Services. The statement is True. Collaborating with local emergency services, such as fire departments, police, and medical units ensures that disaster plans are realistic, comprehensive, and effective. These services have invaluable expertise and experience that can greatly enhance the disaster preparedness and response capability of a community.
In contrast, Dillon's Rule states that local governments do not have inherent sovereignty and can only exercise powers expressly granted to them by the state government, or those powers that are essential for the execution of their express powers. As such, the claim that Dillon's Rule gives local governments freedom and flexibility to make decisions for themselves is False.
