Through such collaboration, the City will be better prepared <br />to meet the needs of both its residents and daytime population (visitors, employees,etc.). <br /> <br />OUTREACH <br />City staff, including through the Disaster Preparedness Working Group and their partners, <br />promote public awareness and education to strengthen overall preparedness and community <br />resilience. By providing community education, outreach, training, and coordination, the City <br />increases the ability of community members and organizations to adequately prepare for and <br />meet their own needs. By promoting self-reliance and preparedness, the City reduces the <br />overall burden on resources and competing needs that may arise during critical incidents. <br /> <br />STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT <br />This item advanced the ONE Pleasanton Strategic Priority of Safeguarding Our City D.1. <br />Assess the City's overall emergency preparedness capabilities, resources, and tools and <br />implement changes as needed to ensure the City is properly positioned to respond to <br />disasters, which is one of the top seven City Council priorities identified for focus at the last <br />strategic planning workshop. This effort also supports Optimizing Our Organization B.6. <br />Update City policies and procedures to clarify roles, provide training and proactively plan to <br />address workplace health and safety issues, ensuring compliance with state and federal <br />Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) requirements. <br /> <br />FISCAL IMPACT <br />The Emergency Management Division is allocated $40,000.00 from the General Fund for <br />training, professional services, and miscellaneous supplies and equipment for Fiscal Year <br />2025-2026. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Page 194 of 264
