CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
Meeting: September 21, 2010
Subject
Submit grant documents to the Department of Homeland Security for the purchase an installation
of a portable emergency generator at City Hall.
Recommended Action
Adopt Resolution.
Description
Authorize the City Manager or Administrative Services Director to finalize documents for a
$3,000 grant to the City.
Discussion
In fiscal year 2010, the federal Department of Homeland Security allocated a $300,000
Emergency Operations Center grant to the City to acquire and install a portable emergency
generator at City Hall. City staff is preparing the formal grant documents to finalize and receive
the award. As part of this process, the federal government requires that the City Council
authorize, by resolution, the City staff members that can prepare and sign such documents. Since
the emergency preparedness division originally applied for the grant, the City Manager and
Director of Administrative Services are seeking this authority.
Fiscal Impact
The City has a current budget of $400,000 for this project in account 420-9254, using the grant
funds and $100,000 from the General Fund for the required local match.
