ITEM EXPLANATION:
The US Department of Homeland Security developed the Buffer Zone Program to significantly
enhance the protection around critical infrastructure and key resource sites in the nation and to
deter threats or incidents of terrorism aimed at those facilities.
The Governor's Office of Homeland Security and the Department of Homeland Security, Office of
State and Local Government Coordination and Preparedness approved funding under the FY 05
Buffer Zone Program for 22 Buffer Zone Program sites within San Diego County. The San Diego
County Board of Supervisors authorized the County of San Diego Office of Emergency Services to
accept and administer the Buffer Zone Program funding for the region. Two of the approved sites
are within the City of Carlsbad. The two designated sites are Plaza Camino Real Westfield
Shopping Town and Legoland California.
Vulnerability reduction plans were developed for each site and Vulnerability Reduction Purchasing
Plans were submitted and have been approved by the Department of Homeland Security. The
vulnerability reduction equipment approved for purchase for each site includes wireless IP video
surveillance systems at each location.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The cost of the project is estimated to be $99,697. A total of $94,575 will be funded through
reimbursement from the Office of Homeland Security. The remaining balance of $5,392 will be
funded from existing appropriations within the police department. Maintenance costs are
estimated at up to $8,000 during 07-08 and $23,000 in subsequent years and will be budgeted.
