SUBJECT: Continuation of Emergency action originally taken by the Board of Supervisors on
January 4, 2006 related to storm damage
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION • 0 O
I. RECOMMENDATION:
DETERMINE there is a need to continue the Proclamation of a Public Emergency
(proclamation of a local emergency) proclaimed in Resolution 2006/04 by the Board
of Supervisors on January 4, 2006, as prescribed by state law, by ordinances of
this County, and by the Contra Costa County Emergency Operations plan.
II. BACKGROUND:
On January 4, 2006, the board acknowledged that conditions of extreme peril to the safety
of persons and property had arisen within the County caused by severe storms and that
the storms had caused damages of at least $10 million.
The conditions of extreme peril that necessitated the proclamation of the existence of a
local emergency still exist within the County and, due to ground saturation of storm water
and the foreseeable expectation of further storming within the County, it is necessary to
continue the Proclamation of a Local Emergency.
III. FISCAL IMPACT:
The Declaration of a local emergency enables Contra Costa County and its political
subdivision to request financial assistance from the State of California under the
California Disaster Assistance Act (Cal. Gov. Code §8680 et Seq.) and from the Federal
Government under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act
(P.L. 93-288, 100-707).
