4. / SUBJECT: / SAN DIEGO COUNTY FIRE AUTHORITY - ADMINISTRATIVE AUTHORITIES FOR CONTRACTS, GRANTS, REVENUE AGREEMENTS AND SOLE SOURCE PROCUREMENT (DISTRICTS: ALL)
OVERVIEW:
Since 2005, the Board has taken significant action to improve fire and emergency medical services in the unincorporated areas of the county. This is a request to authorize several administrative actions that will facilitate additional steps towards improving fire and emergency medical services within the Public Safety Group Executive Office, San Diego County Fire Authority (SDCFA) and with its partner agencies.
On June 25, 2008 (1), the Board approved the negotiation and award of new and amended contracts with fire service entities to improve fire protection and emergency service response in unincorporated areas. The SDCFA currently maintains contracts with CAL FIRE, Volunteer Fire Companies, Fire Protection Districts, and a Municipal Water District, which expire June 30, 2013. If approved, this request will authorize the Director of Purchasing and Contracting, on behalf of the Chief Administrative Officer, to negotiate new contracts and revenue agreements with fire service agencies to improve fire protection and emergency response services in their service areas. This is also a request to authorize the submission of grant applications to improve fire prevention and protection services and authorize a sole source procurement of fire rescue equipment.
Fiscal impact:
Funds for this request in the amount of $120,000 are included in the Fiscal Year 2012-13 Adopted Operational Plan. Funds for new contracts and procurement of equipment under this request are included in the Fiscal Year 2013-15 CAO Recommended Operational Plan in the Public Safety Group Executive Office, San Diego County Fire Authority (SDCFA). Ongoing funding will be included in SDCFA future Operational Plans, subject to Board approval. If approved, this request will result in annual ongoing costs of approximately $12.8 million for contracted services. The estimated cost for the rescue equipment varies on an annual basis, but is approximately $100,000 for each fiscal year. The funding sources are General Purpose Revenue and Fund Balance available. If the grant applications are successful, staff would return to your Board to accept the grant awards and establish appropriations, if necessary. There will be no change in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years.
