Subject:Appointments to the Bay Area Regional Interoperable Communications System (BayRICS) Authority
BACKGROUND:
The Bay Area Regional Interoperable Communication System (BayRICS) is next phase
of linking public safety interoperability systems. BayRICS is composed of the 10 Bay
Area counties and several cities. The BayRICS participants wish to form a Joint Powers
Authority (JPA) to address the challenges of sustaining and managing shared
interoperability assets and enhancing the effectiveness of public safety communications
systems. The BayRICS Authority (Authority) will oversee and implement the next phase
of the strategic plan to create a technologically advanced voice and data interoperability
system throughout the Bay Area region.
Membership in the BayRICS Authority will provide representation for the County to
ensure that the UASI (Urban Area Security Initiative) funding allocation for Contra Costa
County is commensurate with other counties or regional groups. As a member of the
BayRICS Authority, Contra Costa County will continue to develop and implement
mission-critical interoperable communications for public safety. BayRICS will enable
first responders to proactively respond and recover more efficiently and effectively to
major intentional or natural events.
At its June 28, 2011 meeting, the Board of Supervisors considered and approved County
membership in the Bay Area Regional Interoperable Communications System
(BayRICS) Authority and appointed Supervisor Gayle B. Uilkema as the Board of
Supervisors' representative and Supervisor Federal D. Glover as the Alternate
representative to the Authority.
According to the policies and procedures adopted by the Board pertaining to Board
member appointments, the Chair of the Board makes recommendations regarding
appointments, and the Board of Supervisors must adopt a Master Resolution with a
complete roster of all appointments whenever terms expire or new appointments are
made. This Board Order and Resolution effectuates those policies and procedures for
these appointments.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The Board of Supervisors would not have an updated roster and resolution including
these appointments.
