CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING AGENDA PACKET

City of Pleasanton Emergency Operations Plan 6 June 2025 2.2.4 Local Government The City of Pleasanton, as a local government, retains the responsibility and authority for managing response activities within its jurisdiction. To support these efforts, the City may activate its EOC and departments may activate respective Department Operations Center (DOCs). The EOC provides agency coordination, provides logistical support, establishes common operating procedures, identifies overarching priorities, and prioritizes available resources. Additionally, the EOC coordinates with Alameda County Operational Area (OA)/County EOC. 2.2.5 Operational Area The OA provides response coordination for all political subdivisions within the County’s jurisdiction. The OA coordinates response activities within the County’s jurisdiction through the County EOC, if activated. The OA serves as a link to the regional level and other OAs within the region. Pleasanton is part of the Alameda County OA and coordinates with the Alameda County Office of Emergency Services (OES). The City participates in Alameda County OA planning, and during a critical incident, coordinates with the OA through either the Alameda County OES or the Alameda County EOC, if activated. 2.2.6 Regional The State of California is divided into three regions that each maintains Regional Emergency Operations Centers (REOC) to coordinate resource requests, support mutual aid, and promote situational awareness between their respective OAs. The City of Pleasanton and Alameda County are in the Coastal Region. 2.2.7 State The Governor, through California Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) and its mutual aid regions, will coordinate statewide operations to include the provision of mutual aid and other support to local jurisdictions and the redirection of essential supplies and other resources as required. Alameda County is part of the OES Coastal Region. Requests that exceed the capabilities of the OA will be forwarded to the Region. The Cal OES Director, assisted by State Agency Directors, their staff, and volunteer agency staff, will constitute the State emergency management staff. 2.2.8 Mutual Aid The California Mutual Aid System operates within the framework of the California Master Mutual Aid Agreement (MMAA) and under the authority of the California Emergency Services Act.
