RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE Appropriation and Revenue Adjustment No.005051 authorizing new revenue in the amount of $44,900 from the Contra Costa Community College District and appropriation of the funds to the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District (7300) for maintenance of training facilities.

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% CCCFPD General Fund. The College District paid the Fire District a facilities fee of $38,500 for use of the Fire District training facilities, and a live fire training fee of $6,400 for live fire training conducted with the assistance of the Fire District.

BACKGROUND:

On August 10, 2021, the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District Board of Directors authorized the Fire Chief, or designee, to execute a Training Facility Use Agreement with the Contra Costa Community College District (Los Medanos College). Los Medanos College provides an Accredited Regional Firefighter 1 Training Program (ARTP) as one of their many educational programs.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

The Fire District maintains a State Accredited Fire Academy (facility, equipment, props, and classrooms) that provides the location for the Los Medanos College ARTP.

The Training Facility Use Agreement permits the College District to deliver their ARTP using the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District Training Center.

The Fire District needs to perform maintenance on its training tower. Practice fire training drills cause extreme wear on the structure and it requires periodic refurbishing to keep it in good condition.
