City Council Meeting

Meeting Date:	07/19/2022
FROM:	Bill Gallardo

Subject:

Applicants Agent Resolution for Homeland Security Funds

RECOMMENDATION

Adopt the attached Governing Body Resolution which authorizes and designates City staff to perform as an Applicants Agent to complete and sign State and Federal documents related to homeland security, disaster response and disaster recovery.

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION

In Order to receive federal financial assistance from the Department of Homeland Security, a document must be on file which designates personnel authorized to complete and sign on behalf of the agency. A document has been on file since 1998. The last update was April 6, 2021.

The personnel placed on this list were selected based on their involvement with the City's homeland security and disaster efforts. The personnel are designated by position/title rather than name to ensure maximum flexibility to meet timelines. Financial assistance managed under this resolution will include grants, equipment, training and disaster recovery funds.

The only change to this form since 2021, is the title Emergency Preparedness Analyst to Emergency Preparedness Coordinator.

FISCAL IMPACT/SUMMARY

A failure to file this form will result in an immediate and long-term loss of homeland security related grants and significant potential loss related to disaster recovery.

RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED:

William Gallardo, City Manager
Prepared by: Lisa Keyworth, Emergency Preparedness Coordinator
