APPROVE Appropriations and Revenue Adjustment No. 5003 authorizing new revenue in the amount of $54,527 in
the Sheriff's Office Emergency Services (0362) and appropriating it for support of the Community Warning System.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This action increases revenue and appropriations for FY 13/14 by $54,527.
BACKGROUND:
The Community Warning System (CWS) is an emergency warning system that consists of alert, notification and
education. The alert and notification features are linked by a radio frequency network, and are designed to function
when telephone systems fail. Signals carried by radio frequency activate every part of the emergency system.
The Contra Costa County's Community Warning System alerts the community and emergency responders when there
is a hazardous materials incident. The CWS includes a system of outdoor sirens that can be quickly sounded by an
large industry in the event of a chemical release that could impact the public. Emergency response agencies can also
activate the warning system for transportation and other types of incidents.
