Government Code Section 8630 States:
(a) A local emergency may be proclaimed only by the governing body of a city, county, or city and county, or by an official designated by ordinance adopted by that governing body. (b) Whenever a local emergency is proclaimed by an official designated by ordinance, the local emergency shall not remain in effect for a period in excess of seven days unless it has been ratified by the governing body.

BACKGROUND
The United States of America has confirmed cases of individuals who have a severe acute respiratory illness caused by a novel (new) corona virus("COVID-19" or "the virus") first detected in Wuhan, Hubei Province, People's Republic of China ("China"). The virus was first reported in China on December 31, 2019. As of March 2, 2020, the World Health Organization ("WHO") has reported more than 3,000 deaths stemming from approximately 89,000 confirmed cases of COVID-19 and the virusis present in 67 countries. The number of confirmed cases has continued to escalate dramatically over a short period of time. World Health Organization (WHO) officials now report that Agenda Item Number 5

City Council Meeting January 17, 2023
sustained human-to-human transmission of the virus is occurring. Transmission from asymptomatic individuals has been documented. Suspected community transmission of the virus is occurring in the United States. Although the majority of individuals infected with COVID-19 recover from the disease without special treatment, there is significant potential for serious infection and death. On January 30, 2020, the WHO declared the COVID-19 outbreak a public health emergency of international concern, and on January 31, 2020, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services declared a Public Health Emergency for the United States of America. On March 11, 2020, WHO declared that the Novel Coronavirus COVID-19 Outbreak a Global Pandemic. The United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has determined that the virus presents a serious public health threat, requiring coordination among state and local health departments to ensure readiness for potential health threats associated with the virus. The County's Public Health Officer has found that the conditions constituting a threat to community health, including a presumptive case of community infection, may be present in the County warranting a proclamation of a Local Health Emergency.
DISCUSSION:
The threat of the COVID-19 Coronavirus will last an indefinite period and could significantly impact the health and safety of City employees and residents as well as critical public services. Conditions may require the provision of additional public safety and emergency services. The conditions of extreme peril warrant and necessitate the proclamation of a Local Emergency to enable the City of Sebastopol and other local government entities to adequately plan, prepare and preposition resources to be able to effectively respond to the threat posed by COVID19, and to warn City of Sebastopol residents and visitors of the threat posed by COVID-19 and to enable them sufficient time to plan and prepare.
Section 2.36.060 (a) of the Sebastopol Municipal Code empowers the Director of Emergency Services to Request the City Council to proclaim the existence or threatened existence of a “local emergency” if the City Council is in session, or to issue such proclamation if the City Council is not in session. Whenever a local emergency is proclaimed by the Director, the City Council shall take action to ratify the proclamation within seven days thereafter or the proclamation shall have no further force or effect.
Fire Chief Bill Braga, Acting as Director of Emergency Services, signed an Emergency Proclamation on March 12, 2020 (Attachment 1) which found that conditions of extreme peril to the safety of persons or property within the City exist, which has been caused by the Global Pandemic of the COVID-19 Coronavirus. The Council first extended the emergency proclamation at their May 5, 2020, City Council meeting in accordance with the government code and further extended the declaration at the October 18, 2022, City Council Meeting.
The Mayor and Vice-Mayor met and directed a number of measures be taken to safeguard the public, City staff, and Council members, including reducing or eliminating unnecessary travel, limiting large public meetings, limiting exposure and practice by what is being called “social distancing”, and reducing Council meetings to essential items only. We feel that the prudent and responsible course of action is to do everything that we can to limit the spread of the virus.
The City Council is requested to adopt the attached resolution (Attachment 3) Extending the Existence of a Local Emergency caused by the Novel Coronavirus COVID-19 Global Pandemic.
GOALS:
Goal SA 3: Protect the Safety of Life and Property by Ensuring Emergency Preparedness.
Policy SA 3-3: Provide an effective communications system to properly respond to emergencies and ensure interoperability with all County and State communications systems.
