UASI provides funds to local emergency first responders to <br /> enhance security and overall preparedness to prevent, respond to, and <br /> recover from acts of terrorism. The grant specifically provides funding <br /> for anti-terrorism equipment, planning, training, and exercises. Santa Ana <br /> has been designated as an Urban Area Core City for the past eight years. <br /> The City of Santa Ana has fiscal responsibility for the FY07 UAST grant for <br /> the Santa Ana / Anaheim Urban Area which encompasses the 34 jurisdictions <br /> in Orange County. <br /> On November 17, 2008, LDM Engineering was awarded a $325,000 contract to <br /> upgrade the computer and radio service room to house an expanded security <br /> camera system. However, staff identified a need to increase the scope <br /> during the installation process to include the purchase and installation of <br /> EMT (Electronic metallic Tubing) conduit. Approximately $5,000 is included <br /> for annual maintenance. The Video Security System is now operational and <br /> enhances the protection of the Police Administration Facility. <br /> 22D-1 <br /> <br />
