Summary of Request:
On December 14, 2021, the Mendocino County Board of Supervisors (BOS) approved investing one-time Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) disaster settlement funds in the amount of $1,000,000 to fund Mendocino County Association of Fire Districts (MCAFD). Through this approval, each of the twenty-two districts will receive $45,454.55 for various purchases and projects according to the BOS approved MCAFD PG&E Settlement Allocations. The proposed contract with Whale Gulch Volunteer Fire Company for purchase of water storage tanks, portable radios, and remote mount deck radios is among the contracts approved. Mendocino County drafted the contract with Coastal Headwaters Association as it is the non-profit parent entity of the Whale Gulch Volunteer Fire Company. The Coastal Headwaters Association maintains a financial account that the management committee of the Fire Company administers; funds from the account are used only for the Company’s fire and emergency services.
Pursuant to the proposed Agreement, Whale Gulch Volunteer Fire Company will utilize funding to purchase equipment and supplies, for use primarily in and around Mendocino County. Award of PG&E funds for this purpose will support Whale Gulch Volunteer Fire Company’s provision of services in Mendocino County, enhancing the County’s resiliency and directly facilitating effective response to disaster.
