RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Sheriff-Coroner, or designee, to execute a contract with California Office of Emergency Services California Specialized Training Institute, in the amount not to exceed $250,000 for emergency management and public information officer training for the term of March 9, 2020 through June 30, 2022..

FISCAL IMPACT:

$250,000 grant funds; State Homeland Security and Bay Area Urban Areas Security Initiative.

BACKGROUND:

The Office of the Sheriff-Coroner was awarded grant funding through the Bay Area UASI and State Homeland Security Grant Program to fund emergency management training for Emergency Operations Center (EOC) and field incident managers. The courses being contracted are foundational courses for EOC personnel and Public Information Officers for crisis management. Contra Costa cannot conduct these certified State courses internally. Contracting with CSTI will ensure local personnel receive these core trainings necessary to respond proficiently in times of disaster.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The Office of the Sheriff-Coroner will not be able to expend awarded grant money and would have to de-obligate these funds.
