AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENT
WITH THE COUNTY OF ALAMEDA REGARDING PARTICIPATION IN THE ALAMEDA
COUNTY VEOCI SYSTEM
WHEREAS, Prior to October 1, 2013, the Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal
OES) provided the Response Information Management System software to all county and city
jurisdictions for the purposes of coordinating response, reporting situation status, and requesting
resources during an emergency or disaster; and
WHEREAS, Cal OES then transitioned to WebEOC as the emergency management
software for the State but only provided it to county governments, leaving local governments with
no streamlined method for communicating with the Operational Area (County) during an
emergency; and
WHEREAS, VEOCI is an interactive emergency management system intended to provide
sufficient situation analysis in the event of an emergency, provide cities an ability to send requests
to the County for incidents, and provide for the delivery of actionable information intended to
enhance public safety; and
WHEREAS, in 2019, the Alameda County Office of Emergency Services applied for and
received funding from the State Homeland Security Grant Program (SHSGP) to fund the purchase
of VEOCI for all agencies within the County; and
WHEREAS, the City will receive at least 31 licenses at no cost as a part of this program
and will have the ability to purchase licenses above that amount at the price negotiated by the
County; and,
WHEREAS, the Alameda County Office of Emergency Services requires that all cities
participating in this program enter into a Memorandum of Agreement which memorializes mutually
agreeable guidelines for accessing and using the County’s VEOCI System.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Dublin does
hereby authorize the City Manager to Execute a Memorandum of Agreement with the County of
Alameda Regarding Participation in the Alameda County VEOCI System, as attached hereto as
Exhibit A to the Resolution.
