Summary of Request:
On October 16, 2018, in light of the fire emergencies Mendocino County experienced in the previous two years, the Executive Office and the Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) presented to the Board of Supervisors on various Local Emergency Medical Services Agency (LEMSA) models in order to facilitate a discussion about the County’s existing model. That presentation included an overview of County and LEMSA roles and responsibilities as well as a review of LEMSA options available to Mendocino County.
Pursuant to Board direction, HHSA is returning to the Board to provide an update. Updates include an overview of the LEMSA contract with Sonoma County, investigation of other regional LEMSA models, and development of key positions necessary for a single county LEMSA model.
HHSA and the Executive Office present to the Board today to facilitate further discussion about possible LEMSA options for Mendocino County and to consider next steps, including Board review of a revised Sonoma County contract for continued Emergency Medical Services oversight.

Provide alternative direction to staff.
