PURPOSE/INTRODUCTION:

At the September 7, 2021, City Council meeting, the City Council received a presentation, discussed the draft proposed Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) and on September 21st, 2021, by resolution adopted the EOP. During the meetings Council provided direction to the Director of Emergency Services (Fire Chief) for additional information and preparing amendments to the Municipal Code, Chapter Two, Section 2.36 Emergency Management Ordinance, to be consistent with the EOP.

BACKGROUND:

The City’s Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) is a foundational document for emergency management systems, practices, and procedures for City staff, key partners, and the community and shall be based on and consistent with the Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) as adopted by the State of California and the National Incident Management System (NIMS) as adopted by the Federal government.

The Sebastopol Municipal Code Title Two, Administration and Personal, Section 2.36 pertains to Emergency Management within the City. With the adoption of the revised EOP, Council directed staff to review and make the necessary recommendations ensuring the code is consistent with the adopted EOP.

DISCUSSION:

At the March 15, 2022, City Council meeting, the City Council received a presentation, discussed the draft proposed Emergency Operations Plan (EOP), and supported adoption of the proposed document with the following direction to the Director of Emergency Services as provided in the EOP and as listed below:

iii. Location of our Evacuation Centers
iv. Procedures for opening said buildings (Cooling Centers, Warming Centers, Evacuation Centers, etc.)
v. Location of Radio Operators & Hubs utilizing FRS/GMRS Radios with SNCU Team Members
a. Return to City Council with current budget for modifications to the Emergency Operations Center located at the Sebastopol Police Department.

The primary City Emergency Operations Center (EOC) is located at the Sebastopol Police Department, 6850 Laguna Parkway. The alternate EOC is located at the Sebastopol Fire Department, 7425 Bodega Avenue.

Generally, emergency management operations will be conducted from the primary EOC, however situations may arise which dictate EOC operations be conducted from alternate sites, i.e., the primary EOC is either nonoperational due to damage or inaccessible, or the situation resulting from the event may dictate that both facilities be activated. As a result, both centers should be equipped to manage any emergency that arises in the city. Funding for the alternative EOC at the Sebastopol Fire Department will be budgeted for the FY2023-2024 Fiscal Year.

The Director of Emergency Services completed an assessment of both buildings and prepared a list of equipment and materials needed to update and operate the centers efficiently. Items include. • First Responder SIM Cards for Dept Laptops, Hotspots, Routers • Monitors
• Mounting units, cables, electrical surge protectors
• Miscellaneous office supplies
b. Return to Council with Amendments to the Emergency Management Ordinance to be consistent with Emergency Operations Plan.

Current Sebastopol Municipal Code Title Two, Administration and Personal, section 2.36 pertains to Emergency Management. With the adoption of the revised EOP, staff is recommending making the following changes to section 2.36 for consistency with city practices and the EOP:
• 2.36.010 – Purpose

Page 3 of 48 ends

With the proposed language staff is recommending adding language to the section which dictates the Disaster Council meet at least once a year upon the call of the chairperson. This language is consistent with Council request, and the EOP, which dictates the Director of Emergency Services to review the EOP annually and report back to the Council on required changes to the EOP. • 2.36.060 – Powers and Duties of Director and Assistant Director of Emergency Services Current Language -

The proposed language removes the requirement that the Sebastopol Disaster Council shall be responsible for the development of the City of Sebastopol emergency plan. It directs the Emergency Services Director as being responsible for developing and maintaining an updated and current EOP, in accordance with the provisions of the California Emergency Services Act and shall be subject to the approval of the City Council.

The above-described proposed changes are the only recommended changes to section 2.36 Emergency Management. Attachment A is a red line version of complete ordinance as proposed for adoption. c. Conduct annual mock training drills/exercises to ensure staff is prepared for emergency situations and maintain Certificates of Training.

The Director of Emergency Services is responsible for ensuring staff meets all the training requirements per the State and Federal Emergency Management Systems.

I. INTRODUCTION
Purpose
This Annex establishes general and specific policies, procedures, and protocols for the use of Evacuation, Cooling, and Warming Centers in the City of Sebastopol Operational Area (Op Area) during actual or potential emergencies that pose a significant threat to life or property. This plan serves as a functional annex to the Sebastopol Emergency Operations Plan (EOP).

Situation Overview
Depending on the emergency and the conditions, public safety officials may utilize a variety of ways to alert you that it is time to evacuate. Below is information on evacuation communication tools that you need to be aware of during emergencies (Refer to the City of Sebastopol Annex – Alert Warnings).

Reminder: Always use your best judgement in an emergency situation. If you feel unsafe, spot fires ignite, or conditions change, do not wait for an evacuation order; leave early if you are unsure to avoid being trapped by severe conditions.

Evacuation Center Information
During emergencies and when conditions warrant, the City stands up an evacuation, cooling, and warming centers to direct residents to available resources. The location of the centers is particular to the specific incident and will be announced by the City of Sebastopol and/or County of Sonoma Social Media, City’s Website, Nixle, Facebook, and press releases.

Preparing is a Year-Round Endeavor
A wide variety of emergencies may cause an evacuation. In some instances, you may have a day or two to prepare, while other situations might call for immediate evacuation.

Planning ahead is vital to ensuring that you can evacuate quickly and safely, no matter what the circumstances.

Before an evacuation:
• Know Your Zone and evacuation route. Plan how you will leave and where you will go if you are advised to evacuate. Know and practice multiple routes out of your neighborhood. Listen to local radio stations.
• When disaster strikes, residents may be asked to evacuate their homes or place of employment. The safest route out of your neighborhood may not be the typical route you would take. Know all the ways out and listen for instructions from emergency personnel on which way to go when asked to evacuate.

• Learn your Escape Routes at https://ci.sebastopol.ca.us/CityGovernment/Department-Services/Fire/Evacuation-Information. There are interactive street-by-street maps and expandible PDF maps at this link. • Prepare your Go Bag and Grab List items.
• Be sure you can open your garage if the power goes out. • Keep pets close and have carriers readily available.
• Be aware of nearby road conditions and potential obstacles, such as locked gates and overgrown vegetation.
• Talk to your neighbors about evacuation concerns and work together to mitigate potential hazards.
• Identify several places you could go in an emergency such as a friend’s home in another town or a motel. Review the additional living expenses (ALE) coverage in your insurance policy.
• If you have a car, keep a full tank of gas.
• If you do not have a car, make arrangements with family, friends, or neighbors.

During an evacuation:
• Monitor social media channels-- including local law enforcement agencies, Sonoma County and your city, Nixle, and traditional sources of media for evacuation information.
• Listen for Hi-Lo sirens from our Emergency Vehicles.
• Take your Go Bag.
• Leave early enough to avoid being trapped by severe weather. • Secure your home by closing and locking doors and windows. • Leave a note telling others when you left and where you are going. • Wear sturdy shoes and clothing that provides some protection such as long pants, long-sleeved shirts, and a hat.
• Check with neighbors who may need a ride.
• Follow recommended evacuation routes. Do not take shortcuts; they may be blocked.
• Use your evacuation tag to let first responders know you have safely evacuated. • Be alert for road hazards such as downed trees, blocked roads or bridges and downed power lines.

After an evacuation:
• Once you are safe, let friends and family know you are out of harm’s way. • Charge devices and consider getting back-up batteries in case power outages continue.

• Monitor social media channels-- including local law enforcement agencies, Sonoma County, and your city, Nixle, and traditional sources of media for instructions on when to return home.

Returning home:
• Residents returning to disaster-affected areas after significant events should expect and prepare for disruptions to daily activities and remember that returning home before debris is cleared is dangerous.
