RECOMMENDED ACTION:
City Council adopt Resolution No. 2005-01 1 accepting Federal grant funds
through the Urban Area Security Initiative Grant Program (UASI) for domestic disaster
preparedness for incidents of terrorism involving Weapons of Mass Destruction.
ITEM EXPLANATION:
The United States Department of Justice (DOJ), Office of Justice Programs (OJP) and the
Office of Domestic Preparedness (ODP) provide federal grant funds which are administered
to states through the State Domestic Preparedness Grant Program for the purchase of
specialized equipment and training to enhance the capability of state and local agencies to
respond to incidents of terrorism involving the use of Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD).
For the federal grant funds associated with the UASI Grant Program, the City of San Diego
Office of Homeland Security is the designated “Metropolitan Urban Area” for the San Diego
Operational Area, and as such, is the entity that applies for, receives and locally administers
federal UASl grant funds. The UASI Program is a new program. The Urban Area Working
Group is the governing body and determined the local distribution formula for UASl grant
funds, which is also based upon the percentage of “first responders” in each jurisdiction
within the Metropolitan Urban Area.
No matching funds are required for the Urban Area Security Initiative Grant. The Federal
grant funds allocated to the City of Carlsbad are noted in the following table:
Attached as Exhibit No. 2 is the Grant Fund Distribution List for the FY 2003 UASI Grant
(Part II) designated for training. Attached as Exhibit No. 3 is the Grant Fund Distribution List
and the Equipment Purchase Summary for the FY 2004 UASl Grant. The City of Carlsbad
Police and Fire Departments jointly review the list of UASl grant-fund qualified Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE) and WMD-related equipment, determine the needs of each
department, and allocate the funds for purchases based upon identified department needs.
Equipment is then purchased and paid for by the City. Paid purchase invoices for UASI-
related purchases are then sent to the City of San Diego Office of Homeland Security for full
reimbursement to the City.
The FY 2003 (Part II) and FY 2004 UASl Training Grants require that the grant funds only
be used for terrorism and weapons of mass destruction-related training and the expenses
associated with attendance at the training for police, fire and other first responder City staff.
PAGE 2 OF AGENDA BILL NO. 17,943
The cost of the training and all related expenses are fully reimbursable under the terms of
the UASI Training Grants. The UASl Training Committee has developed a list of approved
grant-related training and continues to review other training that is grant applicable. Similar
to the PPE and WMD-related equipment purchases, the City of Carlsbad Police and Fire
Departments jointly review the UASI-related training needs of both Departments and
allocate the funds for training based upon identified department needs. Training is then
scheduled and paid for by the City. Paid invoices for UASI-related training and the
expenses associated with the training are then sent to the City of San Diego Office of
Homeland Security for full reimbursement to the City.
FISCAL IMPACT:
All UASl grant-related purchases and training costs and expenses are 100% reimbursable.
The Police and Fire Departments request that the City Council appropriate from the General
Fund the total of all UASl grant funds, in the amount of $196,633, to Disaster
Preparedness. Upon completion of the UASl grant-related purchases and training, the
General Fund will be reimbursed by grant reimbursements. It is anticipated that all
expenditures and reimbursements associated with the FY 2003 UASl (Part II) Training
Grant will be completed before the close of FY 2004/05. The FY 2004 UASI Grant (all
parts) will be completed before the close of FY 2005/06.
