Witten Communication:
Report dated November 21, 1995, from the Engineering and Building Director,
recommending that a request from the Hidden Mountain Homeowners Association be denied
to install a three-way stop sign with crosswalks at the intersection of San Juan Creek Road
at Avenida La Mancha. The Report addressed alternatives considered by staff, including "no
U-turn" signs. The Report advised that warrants could not be met for an all -way stop sign,
the need for a crosswalk was limited, and the intersection was functioning adequately. This
item was continued from the meeting of November 7, 1995, to ensure proper public
notification.
Mr. Huber made an oral presentation.
Public Comments:
(1) Charles Hulce, representing the Hidden Mountain Homeowners Association,
expressed strong concerns regarding safety in the area. He offered to pay for the
installation of the stop sign and agreed to a trial period at his expense.

AGENDA ITEM November 21, 1995
TO: George Scarborough, City Manager
FROM: Douglas D. Dumhart, Management Analyst II
SUBJECT: Consideration of Agreement to Establish State Mandated Operational Area for
Emergency Management
By motion, adopt a Resolution approving the Operational Area Agreement with the County of
Orange.
The 1991 Oakland Firestorm prompted new law requiring significant changes to the way local and
state agencies respond to major emergencies. The Standardized Emergency Management System
(SEMS) regulations were developed to help ensure that the people and agencies responding to
disasters have an organized and standard approach to the situation. SEMS requires the Board of
Supervisors to establish an Operational Area of all of the Cities, Public Agencies, and Special
Districts (Subdivisions) in the County by December 1, 1995.
Although multiple approaches for developing operational areas have been used across the State,
Orange County has chosen a more formal agreement. The Agreement actively seeks the participation
of all Subdivisions in the geographic area and treats them as equals in order to ensure that thier
emergency needs and resources are considered. The Agreement (provided as Attachment `B")
establishes a beginning framework for the administrative and emergency organization of the
Operational Area, which will be further developed by the member Subdivisions. SEMS also states
that, "non -participation of any Subdivision does not affect the authority and responsibility of the
Operational Area." Hence the County is responsible for acting as the Operational Area lead whether
Subdivisions execute this agreement or not.
The intent is to build a strong Operational Area to allow all the Subdivisions in the County to
communicate, act and speak together with one voice to our State and Federal counterparts, in both
response and recovery from a major emergency affecting several counties. It will allow Orange
County to compete for emergency resources with other counties and provide the structure to employ
those resources where they are most needed. At this time, staff is recommending approval of the
Operational Area Agreement by Resolution.
FOR CITY COUNCIL AGENT (/ 0,

Agenda Item -2- November 21, 1995
In developing the Operational Area a priority was placed on ensuring representation, while attempting
to maintain groups of a workable size. The multiple organizations of the Operational Area are a result
of an approach designed to meet both legal requirements, as well as ensure that all Subdivisions,
emergency functions are fully represented in the planning and operation of the Operational Area.
Generally, all meetings will be subject to the Ralph M. Brown Act, including posting of meeting
locations and agendas.
The Agreement specifies that each Subdivision is responsible for complying with SEMS, as well as
to participate to the maximum extent possible in the Operational Area. Participation in the
Operational Area is detailed in Section K of the Agreement, but each Subdivision will address the
level of their participation individually, depending upon its resources and expertise. There are four
areas of participation:
Executive - All signatory Subdivisions will be requested to consider major policy issues such
as amendments to the Agreement and any fees should they become necessary, and to
designate two representatives: one from their governing body and one from the staff
responsible for emergency management issues. Meetings of the governing body
representatives are not anticipated to be regular or frequent.
Executive, Administration - Subdivisions may have Executive staff selected to act as
Executive Board members, with the requirement to direct OCEMO in the development of the
Operational Area, and to direct the Operational Area Manager. The Executive Board will
meet quarterly.
Staff, Administration - The development of an Operational Area administrative and
emergency organization, plan, procedures, training and exercises which meets its member
Subdivision's needs will require input from all Subdivisions. The Operational Area can only
serve needs which have been identified and planned for. The level of staff participation in
OCEMO, and in reviewing plans, policies and procedures, will determine the quality of the
communication and incorporation of each Subdivision's capabilities, resources and risks
faced. Each Subdivision will need to determine the extent of its own participation.
Staff, Emergency - Secondary staff of the OAEOC during an emergency may be requested
of Subdivisions from staff trained in emergency management or, if necessary, from other staff
who can support trained staff.
The Executive Board is formed of representatives at the executive level to provide direction to the
Operational Area on a regular basis. The membership is balanced between municipal functional
0 9
Agenda Item -3- November 21, 1995
experts, county -wide aid coordinators, and Subdivision representatives. They will meet quarterly to
direct and review the work completed by the Operational Area Manager and OCEMO (Orange
County Emergency Management Organization) on the Operational Area plan, training and exercises.
The Executive Board will receive copies of the OCEMO Representative Board minutes.
OCEMO is an expansion of the membership, empowerment of, and direction to, the existing
organization, OCCEMO (Orange County -Cities Emergency Management Organization) of which the
City of San Juan Capistrano has been a member for fifteen (15) years. OCEMO is formed of staff
level representatives from all signatory Subdivisions and, by approval of OCEMO and the Executive
Board, representatives of organizations which play a major role in emergencies such as the Red Cross
shelter personnel. These representatives will be directly involved in the development of recommended
plans, procedures, training and exercises for the Operational Area. The full OCEMO membership will
be convened by the OCEMO/Representative Board President as appropriate. However, due to the
potentially large size of this group, it is expected that working committees of similar organizations
will be formed to work on appropriate areas.
The OCEMO Representative Board is formed of staff level representatives of the cities, the County,
the school districts, and one representative from each of the types of special districts. The
Representative Board will be responsible for planning and implementing the work to establish the
Operational Area plans, procedures, etc., including forming committees of OCEMO members to
complete the work. The OCEMO President will be directly responsible for reporting OCEMO
progress at the quarterly meetings of the Executive Board. All OCEMO members will receive copies
of Representative Board minutes.
The organization formed during emergencies is separate from the Administrative Organization. The
Operational Area Emergency Organization follows the SEMS required five (5) functions, and
includes a pre -designated Operational Area Coordinator who is responsible for the direction of the
Operational Area Emergency Operations Center (OAEOC) in its role of communicating and
coordinating between Subdivisions and mutual aid systems, but who does not direct the emergency
response. The Operational Area Coordinator is a pre -designated assignment to ensure that the
OAEOC, which will be located in the County EOC, is activated and staffed in a timely manner. The
Mutual Aid Coordinators for Fire and Rescue, Law Enforcement, Public Works and Health Care are
designated as Coordinator during specific emergencies. For practical reasons, although they will have
two (2) different sets of responsibilities, the Mutual Aid Coordinator designated to be Coordinator
for each emergency is the same as the Director of Emergency Services pre -designated by the County
for an emergency. The Coordinator will have direct contact with and advice from the other Mutual
Aid Coordinators, who will function in the OAEOC both as Mutual Aid Coordinators and
Operational Area Executive Board members.
The Agreement makes provisions for the use of a Unified Command which will be facilitated by all
Mutual Aid Coordinators being responsible for providing a representative in the OAEOC. In addition,
0 0
Agenda Item -4- November 21, 1995
the Multi -Agency Command System is incorporated in the OAEOC, as the Mutual Aid Coordinators
are members of the Executive Board, and affected Subdivisions will be actively providing policy
advice to the Operational Area Coordinator. As situations change, the Executive Board is empowered
to appoint a successor to the initial response Coordinator to ensure appropriate expertise is
maintained. In addition, a representative of the Board of Supervisors is specifically included on the
Executive Board to ensure timely declaration of county -wide emergencies for the benefit of all
Orange County Subdivisions.
The State mandated legal requirements for activation of the OAEOC are included in the Agreement.
They are very broad and include circumstances which would not require the County to activate the
EOC for its own use. Activation of the OAEOC provides an impacted Subdivision with a multitude
of resources through Operational Area coordination with all other Subdivisions and direct access to
the State. The County has volunteered the use of its EOC and initial Operational Area staffing for any
incident. However, the County may be ineligible for any direct State or Federal reimbursement for
staffing the OAEOC if the County could not legally declare an emergency.
The intent of the Agreement is to allow the County to submit costs of the OAEOC to the impacted
Subdivision, with the Subdivision including the costs in its claim for reimbursement, as allowed in
State and Federal claiming procedures. In addition, other Subdivisions will be requested to provide
secondary OAEOC staffing. The Agreement allows the Executive Board to develop policy and
procedures for reimbursement of the County and/or other Subdivisions, from the Subdivisions
receiving the benefit of the OAEOC, should it ever be necessary. This major policy issue and
procedure would be submitted to the member Subdivisions for approval. There are similar provisions
for reimbursement of costs in mutual aid agreements. The State has recently completed a draft of the
Emergency Managers Mutual Aid Agreement which may provide a model for appropriate policy and
procedures for the OAEOC.
SEMS requires all Subdivisions wishing to maintain their eligibility for reimbursement of emergency
response costs to be in compliance with SEMS by December 1, 1996. Participation in the Operational
Area is only one component of SEMS. The City will need to develop and adopt an Emergency
Operations Plan (EOP) that meets SEMS requirements as referenced in Title 19, Division 2, Chapter
1 of the California Code of Regulations. Also, the City will need to provide and document
accomplishment of the required SEMS training.' It is the intent of the Operational Area Agreement
to bring together Subdivisions to share information, skills and expertise to assist all Subdivisions to
achieve compliance.
'The City has requested proposals from consultants to prepare the required plan and conduct the
required training prior to the December 1, 1996 deadline. Staff believes a SEMS required plan could be ready
for City Council adoption by March 1996, and training courses conducted concurrently with plan preparation.
Agenda Item -5- November 21, 1995
Both the Orange County Fire Authority and Orange County Sheriffs Departments are recommending
approval of the Operational Area Agreement.
It is the intent of the Agreement to maximize the use of existing resources to the greatest extent
possible and to capitalize on the development of Operational Area operating procedures already being
completed by Subdivision representatives in OCCEMO. The County has offered the use of the
County EOC during Operational Area activations. Because the County EOC already exists and the
County funds the phone lines, copiers, faxes, etc., the collocation of the OAEOC and the County
EOC means there will be no need to build/develop/fund an OAEOC, thereby achieving an efficient
use of scarce resources.
At this time, the State has indicated that it will reallocate Federal Emergency Management Assistance
(EMA), administrative grants, taking them away from the cities and counties who currently receive
them. The State will use a portion of the EMA funds to allocate a minimum of $30,000 to each
Operational Area. This is intended to fund half of the salary and benefits of one position. Each
Operational Area will be required to provide staff time to match the grant awarded, but the time spent
by all Subdivisions on the Operational Area, (ie. participating in development and review of the
Operational Area plan), may be counted toward that match. It should be noted that the State has
admitted that it believes a minimum of two (2) full time staff will be necessary to complete the work
of the larger Operational Areas.
The remaining EMA grant funds will be allocated to the fifty-eight (58) Operational Areas in the State
on a per capita basis. It is estimated that the Orange County Operational Area will be eligible to
receive approximately $200,000. It is the intent of the Agreement to maximize the use of such
existing resources.
The draft Operational Area Agreement requires the Executive Board to direct the development of
a budget and staffing for the Operational Area and to seek funding for its operation, including an
EMA grant. Included in that budget and staffing will be the duties of the Operational Area Manager,
and any other staff support the Executive Board requests to administer the Operational Area. The
Executive Board is therefore tasked with determining the Operational Area requirements of SEMS
and developing a plan to meet them.
Should the EMA grant funds be discontinued, the Executive Board would be responsible to ensure
the work of the Operational Area is completed including reduce the budget and staffing and/or
investigate alternative funding sources, including fees to member Subdivisions. The latter would
require presentation and approval of the budget, staffing and fees by the governing body of each
signatory Subdivision. It would be necessary for a majority of all Subdivisions to approve the budget
0 0
Agenda Item -6- November 21, 1995
and staffing and to adopt fees before such fees would be implemented. Subdivisions not approving
the fees can withdraw from the Agreement. As an example using only a per capita residential
population measure (1990 U.S. Census Bureau), Santa Ana, with the largest residential population,
304,857/2,512,198 million, might anticipate a $24,270 annual share. Villa Park, with the smallest
residential population, 6,332/2,512,198 million, might anticipate a $504 annual share. San Juan
Capistrano might expect a $2,284 annual share based on a population of 28,700. Alternatively, if
continued participation is desired, such Subdivisions may continue as non-voting members.
