<br />CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: <br /> <br />~ <br />~ <br /> <br />CLERK OF COUNCIL USE ONLY: <br /> <br />REQUEST FOR <br />COUNCIL ACTION <br /> <br />MARCH 7,2005 <br /> <br />APPROVED <br /> <br />TITLE: <br />AGREEMENT FOR UASI COUNTYWIDE <br />STRATEGIC PLAN FOR TERRORISM <br />PREPAREDNESS <br /> <br />o As Recommended <br />o As Amended <br />o Ordinance on 1st Reading <br />o Ordinance on 2nd Reading <br />o Implementing Resolution <br />o Set Public Hearing For <br /> <br />rf <br /> <br />~v~~ <br /> <br />CITY MANAGER <br /> <br />CONTINUED TO <br /> <br />FILE NUMBER <br /> <br />RECOMMENDED ACTION <br /> <br />Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager, Chief <br />of Police and the Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with URS <br />Corporation to develop a countywide Strategic Plan for Terrorism <br />Preparedness in an amount not to exceed $395,100. <br /> <br />DISCUSSION <br /> <br />On August 16, 2004, the City Council accepted a $15 million Urban Area <br />Security Initiative grant from the federal Department of Homeland Security, <br />through the State of California, Office of Homeland Security. This <br />initiative was designed to enhance the domestic preparedness of urban areas <br />by ensuring that all emergency first responders have adequate equipment and <br />systems to prevent, respond to and recover from acts of terrorism. The <br />grant provides total reimbursement to local agencies for equipment <br />purchases approved and authorized by the federal Office of Domestic <br />Preparedness. <br /> <br />The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), through the Office of Domestic <br />Preparedness (ODP), designated the cities of Santa Ana and Anaheim as Urban <br />Areas (UAs) under the FY 2004 Urban Area Security Initiative (UASI). Each <br />city has been awarded a grant to create a sustainable model for <br />preparedness to prevent, respond to and recover from acts of terrorism. <br />Although each city is a designated Urban Area in its own right, the cities <br />developed and submitted to ODP a joint grant strategy. Continuing in this <br />spirit of cooperation, the Santa Ana and Anaheim Urban Areas (UAs) are <br />working with the Orange Operational Area and are pooling resources to <br />develop a countywide strategic plan. This plan will accurately assess <br />vulnerabilities and gaps, and help develop effective strategies to fill <br />those gaps on a countywide basis by using existing and future grant funds. <br /> <br />25B-1 <br /> <br />
