Summary of Request:
On August 17, 2021, the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors (BOS) approved a Prioritized Spend related to projects for strategically investing one-time Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) disaster settlement funds, and authorized the Assistant Chief Executive Officer to prepare and bring forward the necessary contracts for distribution of funds to non-county agencies. As part of the Prioritized Spend, the BOS approved investing $2,587,500 to fund projects within the Redwood Valley Calpella Fire District, which was devastated by recent past fires. Approved projects include replacing fire equipment and purchasing warning sirens for enhanced emergency response, improving the Fire Department and Water System, and supporting community needs, such as cleaning up dead trees/brush and educating the community about how to prepare for possible future disasters.
Pursuant to the original Agreement, Redwood Valley Calpella Fire District was to utilize up to $1,000,000 of PG&E funds to purchase a Type 1 Pumper Conventional Cab Water Truck, a Type 6 Wildland Brush Truck and a Patrol Engine, as well as equipment to outfit the engines to support the provision of wildfire protection services in Mendocino County. However, Redwood Valley Calpella Fire District is requesting this proposed Amendment that will add to their list of supplies/equipment needed for the three trucks, utilizing approximately $200,000 that was remaining after the purchase of the vehicles.
Award of PG&E funds to agencies providing wildfire protection services enhances the County’s resiliency and directly facilitates effective response to disaster.
