STAFF ANALYSIS
The Riverside County Fire Chiefs Association has developed a Tactical Response
Standard Operating Guide (SOG) for the County with input from all Law Enforcement,
Emergency Medical Services (EMS), and Fire agencies within Riverside County. Both
the Palm Springs Fire and Police Departments had significant input on the development
of this Countywide SOG.
In order for the Palm Springs Fire Department to develop a Tactical Response Program
it will require the purchase of medical litters, medical bags, and gear bags containing
ballistic vests and helmets. The funds will be used to purchase 50 gear bags containing
ballistic vests and helmets. The medical litters and medical bags have been previously
purchased for this program.
The Fire Department has received funding via two grants. The Agua Caliente Band of
Cahuilla Indians has awarded the Fire Department a grant in the amount of $25,000.
The second grant was through the State Homeland Security Program (SHSP) grant
program application that was written by the Riverside County Office of Emergency
Services on behalf of all fire departments in Riverside County. The Governor's Office of
Emergency Services (OES) has awarded the Riverside County Operational Area (OA)
federal pass-through funding in the amount of $141,214 to enhance local agencies and
jurisdiction's abilities to prevent, deter, respond to and recover from threats and
incidents of terrorism. The lead agency for the SHSP grant, on behalf of the OA, is
Riverside County Office of Emergency Services (County OES).
The $141,214 grant amount awarded to the OA by ATAA for the Tactical Response
Program was divided between fire departments in the County of Riverside based on the
number of Battalions contained in each department. Palm Springs Fire Department has
one Battalion and thus received $10,863.
Seven (7) equipment suppliers responded to the Request for Quotes for the equipment
and SecurityProUSA of Culver City was the lowest responsive, responsible quote in the
amount of$33,283.15. The highest quote was $85,228.65 from Life Assist Inc.
FISCAL IMPACT
The Fire Department has received grant funding in the amount of $25,000 from the
Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians for the Tactical Response program. These
funds have been deposited into the Active Shooter Safety Equipment Grant Account
(160-4525-60215). In addition, the Fire Department is the recipient of $10,863 from the
