Disaster Service Worker activities such as this training require prior approval by the City’s Disaster Council pursuant to 19 CA Code of Regs 2573.1(b)(2). STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Approve the Dublin CERT Phase 2 Course . FINANCIAL IMPACT: The City contracts for Fire Services with Alameda County Fire Department (ACFD). This contract includes the costs for ACFD to provide disaster preparedness training and support, which includes support for the City’s CERT Program. DESCRIPTION: In 2021 the City launched the Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) Program. CERT is a nationally supported initiative, organized by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Dublin’s CERT Program is coordinated through the Alameda County Fire Department, who manages CERT Trainings. Traditional CERT programs are conducted in- person over several classes with one additional “hands-on” skills class. However, due to COVID-19, these in-person classes were conducted virtually with the “hands -on” skills class to be taught, pandemic permitting. The City held two CERT Cohort virtual sessions, which 34 residents successfully completed. To finalize their training, they must complete an in -person skills training. Page 2 of 2 Pursuant to the California Code of Regulations, Title 19, Section 2573.1(b)(2), the accredited disaster council (i.e., City Disaster Council) shall ensure disaster training is approved, documented, and supervised, and shall ensure disaster training is commensurate with the duties of the disaster service worker volunteer. CERT members are considered Disaster Service Worker (DSW) volunteers. The first CERT Skills training will be held on August 13. A second CERT Skills training, tentatively scheduled for the Third Quarter of 2022, may also be required to accommodate the schedules of CERT Team Members. Both trainings will be held in the parking lot of the Dublin Civic Center/Public Library. The proposed agenda for the training can be found in Attachment 1. ACFD CERT Coordinator Jill Dutchover, will supervise the training, with assistance from other ACFD staff. Next Steps Following approval by the Disaster Council, AFCD will proceed with holding th e CERT Skills Training. STRATEGIC PLAN INITIATIVE: None.
