THE CITY OF <br /> pLEASANTONC <br /> • Work cooperatively with the American Red Cross and others to set up memoranda of <br /> understanding for use of education facilities as emergency shelters following disasters. <br /> LPFD Emergency Preparedness. (EDUC-b-1); <br /> • Work cooperatively to ensure that school district personnel and relevant staff understand <br /> and are trained that being designated by the American Red Cross or others as a potential <br /> emergency shelter does not mean that the school has had a hazard or structural evaluation <br /> to ensure that it can be used as a shelter following any specific disaster. LPFD <br /> Emergency Preparedness & Pleasanton Unified School District. (EDUC-b-2); <br /> • Work cooperatively to ensure that school district personnel understand and are trained <br /> that they are designated as disaster service workers and must remain at the school until <br /> released. LPFD Emergency Preparedness & Pleasanton Unified School District. (EDUC- <br /> b-3); <br /> • Work on and/or support efforts by schools, local governments, and other agencies to <br /> utilize their unique ability to reach families through educational materials on hazards, <br /> mitigation, and preparedness, particularly after disasters and at the beginning of the <br /> school year. These efforts will not only make the entire community more disaster- <br /> resistant, but speed the return of schools from use as shelters to use as teaching facilities. <br /> Pleasanton Disaster Council. (EDUC-c-1); <br /> • Work on and/or support joint efforts of schools and fire jurisdictions to develop plans for <br /> evacuation or sheltering in place of school children during periods of high fire danger, <br /> thereby recognizing that overloading of streets near schools by parents attempting to pick <br /> up their children during these periods can restrict access by fire personnel and equipment. <br /> LPFD. (EDUC-c-2); <br /> • Offer the 21-hour basic CERT training to teachers and after-school personnel. LPFD <br /> Emergency Preparedness. (EDUC-c3); <br /> • Offer the 20-hour basic CERT training course through the Adult School system and/or <br /> through the Community College system. LPFD Emergency Preparedness. (EDUC-c-4); <br /> • Continue to enforce State-mandated requirements, such as the California Environmental <br /> Quality Act, to ensure that mitigation activities for hazards, such as vegetation clearance <br /> programs for fire threat and seismic retrofits, are conducted in a way that reduces <br /> environmental degradation such as air quality impacts, noise during construction, and <br /> loss of sensitive habitats and species, while respecting the community value of historic <br /> preservation. Planning. (ENVI-a-1); <br /> • Encourage regulatory agencies to work collaboratively with safety professionals to <br /> develop creative mitigation strategies that effectively balance environmental and safety <br /> needs, particularly to meet critical wildfire, flood, and earthquake safety levels.
