RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff-Coroner, or designee, to execute a contract containing modified indemnification language with Willson Porter in the amount not to exceed $50,000 for helicopter pilot services for the period October 1, 2020 through June 30, 2022.

FISCAL IMPACT:

$50,000. Budgeted. No General Fund impact. These expenditures are covered by a combination of agency user fees, annual SLESF (Supplemental Law Enforcement Services Fund) allocation, P-6 Central Administrative Base (Zone) revenue, and indirectly offset by State of California Department of Boating and Waterways grant funding.

BACKGROUND:

Under this contract, Willson Porter will provide backup pilot services for the Sheriff’s helicopters. The helicopter is an integral element of effective law enforcement operations, providing enhanced patrol, surveillance, and search and rescue capabilities. Continuation of the helicopter program hinges on services provided under this contract.





CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to approve this contract would ground the helicopter and deprive the citizens of Contra Costa County of a vital law enforcement tool. This would limit the Office of the Sheriff to adequately respond to law enforcement emergencies in any terrain, throughout the County.
