1 Attachment A County Executive Office/Legislative Affairs DRAFT January 24, 2017 Item No. 36 Vol. III, No.4 County of Orange Report on Grant Applications/Awards The Grants Report is a condensed list of grant requests by County Agencies/Departments that allows the Board of Supervisors to discuss and approve grant submittals in one motion at a Board meeting.

Receipt of grants $50,000 or less is delegated to the County Executive Officer. Grant awards greater than $50,000 must be presented to the Board of Supervisors for receipt of funds. This report allows for better tracking of county grant requests, the success rate of our grants, and monitoring of County s grants activities. It also serves to inform Orange County s Sacramento and Washington, D.C. advocates of County grant activities involving the State or Federal Governments. On January 24, 2017 the Board of Supervisors will consider the following actions: RECOMMENDED ACTIONS Approve grant applications/awards as proposed and other actions as recommended. ACTION ITEMS 1.

Purpose of Grant Funds: Provide a summary and brief background of why Board of Supervisors why should accept this grant application/award, and how the grant will be implemented. From 2008 through the present, recent terrorist incidents highlight the emergence of a more recent threat known as complex terrorist attacks. Complex terrorist attacks are acts of terrorism that involve synchronized and independent team(s) at multiple locations sequentially or in close succession, initiated with little or no warning, and employing one or more weapon systems, including firearms, explosives, fire as a weapon and other non-traditional attack methodologies which are intended to result in large numbers of casualties. The emergence of these types of threats represent a need for communities to work towards strengthening their capabilities in order to prepare for, prevent and respond to a complex, coordinated terrorist attack. The FY 2016 Program to Prepare Communities for Complex Coordinated Terrorist Attacks (Program) provides funding to local, tribal and territorial jurisdictions of different types, sizes and capabilities to improve their ability to prepare for, prevent and respond to complex coordinated terrorist attacks in collaboration with the whole community. The Program also focuses on Page 3 of 18

4 developing regional partnerships intended to strengthen the applicant s capacity for building and sustaining capabilities specific to identifying gaps, planning, training and exercising associated with preparing for, preventing, and responding to a complex coordinated terrorist attack. The Program objective is to build and sustain the capabilities of local, state, tribal and territorial jurisdictions to enhance their preparedness for complex coordinated terrorist attacks by achieving the following activities: Attachment A Identifying capability gaps related to preparing for, preventing and responding to a complex coordinated terrorist attack. Developing and/or updating plans, annexes and processes to address the identified gaps. Training personnel and the whole community to implement the plans and processes and build needed capabilities. Conducting exercise(s) to validate capabilities and identify opportunities for additional corrective action. The Program priorities are as follows: Develop comprehensive and sustainable approaches to enhance preparedness for complex coordinated terrorist attacks. Develop and advance regional partnerships and whole community collaboration. Promote creative, innovative and replicable approaches to preparing for complex coordinated terrorist attacks. Develop and share lessons learned and best practices associated with preparing for complex coordinated terrorist attacks between jurisdictions. The Sheriff-Coroner Department (Sheriff) intends to submit an application to develop an inclusive Operational Area approach to solve realistic threats facing the county. The Sheriff understands the benefits of working with a multi-jurisdictional, multi-discipline team of partners, and will develop a working group that will plan, coordinate and implement county-wide training and exercises to successfully respond and recover from coordinated terrorist attacks. Two of the most relevant threats identified in the Sheriff s 2016 Threat and Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment Report are directly related to coordinated terrorist attacks and how the Orange County Operational Area (OCOA) would respond in a preventative and responsive role. If the grant is awarded, a portion of the funding would be allocated to a limited-term grant coordinator position. This position will be working exclusively on deliverables associated with this grant application, as well as serving as a County liaison in support of the projects funded through this grant source. This position s main role would be to conduct technical and operational planning in order to facilitate the development and delivery of county-wide training and exercises, as well as working on the development of grant metrics and assurance of programmatic compliance. If awarded, the grant would also fund two county-wide exercises and multiple training deliveries in support of the entire OCOA. If awarded, the Sheriff-Coroner Department plans to return to the Board of Supervisors to request approval to accept the award and approval of the resulting Memorandum of Understanding. Board Resolution/Special Instructions Nicole Sims will review and approve the application packet before submission. Include requirement for a Board Resolution or authorization to accept the grant award without further Board action.
