STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS Goal 1: Provide for a safe community a. Provide staffing and resources to deliver services that ensure public safety. 6. DISCUSSION AND BACKGROUND The Fire Department is a party to a state-level agreement with The California State Office of Emergency Services (Cal-OES) to provide fire and emergency assistance to state and federal fire agencies. This agreement is managed by Cal-OES and referred to as the California Fire Assistance Agreement (CFAA). Under this agreement, Orange City Fire Department generally provides resources two different ways: Strike Teams and Individual Overhead. Strike team deployments involve an Engine Company or Battalion Chief or Deputy Chief responding with their vehicle as part of a multi-agency team to an incident. Individual Overhead resources respond to fill a specific role for an incident, such as Safety Officer or Line Emergency Medical Technician (EMT). Following the return from one of these incidents, reimbursement paperwork and invoices are submitted by the Fire Department to Cal-OES. The additional funds, if appropriated, will reimburse Fire Department overtime and travel expenditures incurred during these incidents. 7. ATTACHMENTS None. ITEM 3 05/14/2019
