Doesn't the City of NO have a dept of public safety with an emergency manager that is supposed to step in in case of impending disaster rather than have the Mayor, who is a politician not a tech manager, try to do these things?

Yes. His name is Terry Ebberts. His claim to fame here is standing around, for five days, saying "The lack of response here is a national disgrace," forgetting, obviously, that the initial response was his job definition.

Sheesh. We have had emergency managers who slept in their pickup truck with the light rack switch and bullhorn within arms reach when there was nothing at all going on. In fact, we have had emergency managers who would turn the whole town out for drill at 3 AM. If they have an emergency manager that doesn't like to give orders to a crowd just for practice, they need to find a new one.
