Summary of Request:
On August 17, 2021, the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors approved a Prioritized Spend related to projects for strategically investing one-time Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) disaster settlement funds. The Mendocino County Emergency Medical Care Committee (EMCC) requests the reallocation of the $183,534 previously allocated for Training and Education, $100,000 previously allocated for Emergency Medical Technician (EMT)/Paramedic Scholarships, and $62,500 previously allocated for PulsePoint from the one-time PG&E settlement funds to fund $24,340 to implement a tablet command two-way interface with the Mendocino Unit Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) system. The committee also requests the remaining amount of $321,694 be distributed among the County’s Fire and Emergency Medical Services (EMS) transport agencies for EMS equipment and supplies and purchasing iPads to support the tablet command interface.
If approved, staff will begin the execution of an agreement with Peraton, Inc. for the tablet command two-way interface and work with the County’s Fire and EMS Transport agencies to create a budget for their share of the $321,694 for EMS equipment and supplies.
