RECOMMENDED ACTION
1. Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to act on behalf of the City of Santa Ana for
the purpose of obtaining and utilizing federal Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP) funds
for hazard mitigation planning, provided by the US Department of Homeland Security and sub -
granted through the State of California.
2. Approve an appropriation adjustment recognizing up to $74,000 in Hazard Mitigation Grant
Program (HMGP) funds in revenue account (no. 12814002-52001), and appropriating same to
expenditure account (no. 12814416 - 62300).
3. Authorize the City Manager to execute a two-year agreement with a provision for a one-year
extension to Emergency Planning Consultants, for the period of July 1, 2020 through June 30,
2022, for preparation of a Hazard Mitigation Plan, in an amount not to exceed $74,000, subject
to non -substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney.
DISCUSSION
As a result of wildfire and debris flow disasters that occurred in California in December 2017 (DR-
4353), the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) made several hundred million dollars
available to the State of California (State) under the Hazard Mitigation Grant Program (HMGP), a
competitive grant designed to mitigate the impacts of natural disasters before they occur. As a
result, the State is making this funding available to individual jurisdictions for the purpose of
developing Local Hazard Mitigation Plans and mitigation projects.
A Local Hazard Mitigation Plan will identify the primary natural hazards that may impact the City,
such as earthquakes, floods or droughts, and estimates the losses that could be expected to occur,
such as injuries, deaths, property damage or economic loss. The Plan then identifies and
prioritizes projects that can be performed beforehand to mitigate the expected losses, which may
include seismic retrofitting of buildings, improvements to storm drain or flood control infrastructure,
strengthening other critical infrastructure, or improvements to building codes or other regulatory
55A-1

protections. Once a Hazard Mitigation Plan is reviewed and approved by the State and FEMA and
formally adopted by the City, the City will then become eligible to apply for hazard mitigation funding
to complete the mitigation projects identified in the plan.
The City applied for HMGP funding to hire a contractor to assist the City in researching, drafting
and submitting a plan, and was awarded up to $105,000 for this purpose. The City is required to
match this funding in a 75/25 split, but can fulfill its share with the cost of City staff time devoted to
the planning effort, requiring no cash match from City funds.
On January 14, 2020, the City released a Request for Proposals (RFP 19-134) for a planning
consultant and received proposals from seven firms: Emergency Planning Consultants,
Engineering Solutions Services, Hagerty Consulting, Interwest Consulting, Michael Baker
International, Stantec Consulting and Witt O'Brien's LLC. An evaluation committee consisting of
representatives from the Police Department, Planning & Building Agency, Public Works Agency,
and the Risk Management Division reviewed and rated the proposals based on evaluation criteria
set forth in the RFP. The results were:

Stantec Consulting

Interwest Consulting
63.87
Hagerty Consulting

Engineering Solutions Services

Emergency Planning Consultants (EPC) was the most responsive and capable proposer. EPC
demonstrated the most experience in developing new Hazard Mitigation Plans for cities and other
local governments within southern California, demonstrated significant experience in developing
hazard mitigation guidance and regulation at the state and federal levels, and demonstrated
significant experience coordinating the city planning and emergency management functions. EPC
also proposed the lowest price, well within the available grant funds.
The City desires to award a two-year contract, with an optional one-year extension, to Emergency
Planning Consultants, in an amount not to exceed $74,000. The timeline for development of the
plan includes one year to research and draft the plan and one year for State and FEMA review and
approval of the plan, although this timeline may be delayed by the current emergency response to
the COVID-19 disease outbreak.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
Approval of these items assists the City in meeting Goal #1 - Community Safety, Objective #2
(broaden communications, information sharing and community awareness of public safety
activities), Strategy D (expand community awareness of public safety activities, programs and
services that focus on risk reduction (smoke alarms, water safety, pedestrian safety, fire
safety/prevention)); and Goal #6 - Community Facilities and Infrastructure, Objective #1 (establish
and maintain a Community Investment Plan for all City assets), Strategy C (invest resources and

technology to extend the service life of existing infrastructure to protect the City's investment and
support high quality of life standard).
FISCAL IMPACT
The appropriation adjustment will recognize up to $74,000 in HMGP Grant funds in revenue
account (no. 12814002-52001), and appropriate same to expenditure account (no. 12814416 -
62300). Staff time of City staff working on the plan fulfills the requirement for matching funds.
Funds for this agreement will be budgeted in the HMGP Grant contact services account (no.
12814416 — 62300) for fiscal year 2020-21.

This is an updated proposal in response to the Request for Proposal (RFP) for
development of a Local Hazard Mitigation Plan (LHMP) for the City of Santa Ana. It
also reflects a conversation with the City's Emergency Operations Coordination Mr.
Stephen Rhyner.
Emergency Planning Consultants (EPC) has written more than 110 FEMA-approved
hazard mitigation plans as well as additional now in the plan writing and review phase.
Additionally, EPC updated the City of Santa Ana's Emergency Operations Plan
approximately 10 years ago.
Hazard mitigation planning has been at the very core of "recovery planning" for decades
but the Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 elevated the importance of developing pre -
disaster mitigation activities. Mitigation activities includes projects, programs, and plans
that assist with minimizing or eliminating threats associated with hazards. Since the
passage of DMA 2000 there have been numerous case studies proving that the steps
taken ahead to minimize and/or eliminate risks has greatly reduced damages and loss
of life. Like wearing a seat belt in a car, mitigation has revolutionized disaster
outcomes. Whether thought of as "insurance" or a "good investment", there is no doubt
that mitigation is the right thing to do. If that's not enough incentive, federal regulations
require public jurisdictions to maintain a FEMA-approved HMP in order to be eligible for
post -disaster Hazard Mitigation Grant Program funds. Additionally, recently there has
been considerable discussion among other federal agencies about the future need for
HMPs to qualify for other types of post -disaster funding.
EPC maintains the outstanding qualifications required to conduct hazard research and
mapping, facilitate a robust planning process, actively encourage public involvement,
negotiate with the California Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) and the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) during the formal review process, and garner
adoption by the City of Santa Ana City Council. EPC President Carolyn Harshman has
enjoyed two careers: City Planning and Emergency Management. Both careers
required continued improvement in professional skills of research, data collection,
mapping, stakeholder involvement and community outreach, technical writing, public
speaking, training design and delivery. Without a doubt, Emergency Planning
Consultants is the subject matter expert in the field of hazard mitigation in California

Exhibit A
Scope of Services
At present, the City of Santa Ana is not in compliance with DMA 2000 and therefore not
eligible to complete for Hazard Mitigation Grant Program funds which are made
available to jurisdictions within the declared area following a Presidential Disaster
Declaration. In order to accomplish eligibility, a FEMA-approved Hazard Mitigation Plan
must be developed that accomplishes the following:
The intent of DMA 2000 is three -fold:
a) To gather hazard, vulnerability, and mitigation information from the local level for use
in state -level planning;
b) To ensure that state and local hazard mitigation planning is coordinated to the
greatest extent practical; and
c) To ensure that local jurisdictions are made aware of the hazards and vulnerabilities
within their jurisdiction and to develop strategies to reduce those vulnerabilities.
In order to meet all of those objectives, FEMA developed a "checklist" for use by the
State and Federal reviewers. The Region IX Local Hazard Mitigation Plan Review Tool
(FEMA Review Tool) includes the following tasks:
➢ Element A: Planning Process
➢ Element B: Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment
➢ Element C: Mitigation Strategy
➢ Element D: Plan Review, Evaluation, and Implementation
➢ Element E: Plan Adoption (by City Council)
It's important to note that it is especially important to hire a firm with an extensive history
of preparing FEMA-approved Hazard Mitigation Plans. Without adequate experience, it
would not be unusual to spend as much time in the "Cal OES and FEMA review phase"
as in preparing the actual plan. EPC prepares approvable plans and in the event a Cal
OES or FEMA reviewer disagrees, knows how to discuss the difference in interpretation
to gain approval. Specific strategies for accomplishing Element A-E are discussed
below in Methodology and Quality Control.
Methodology and Quality Control
Preparation of the Hazard Mitigation Plan will incorporate all of the federal requirements
relating to local hazard mitigation plans. EPC's hazard mitigation planning approach
has been perfected since 2005 when the federal government first required plans for
local jurisdictions. Since that time great effort and time has gone into tracking the
changes of "interpretations" by the regulatory agencies of the DMA 2000 legislation.
Without publishing updates to the originating legislation, FEMA instead has published
guidelines (see below) and has amended the FEMA Review Tool used to judge the
adequacy of plans. Understanding all the changes in interpretation is critical to writing a
plan that can go through the state and FEMA reviewers with only minor revisions. State
and FEMA have both made significant staffing changes over the past year resulting in
more consistent reviews and fewer unjustified requested changes. Recently, FEMA
review staff have worked closely with state review staff to better understand the
requirements in order to streamline the review process. With so many FEMA approved
#36221v2 3
55A-18
Exhibit A
plans, obviously EPC clearly understands both the regulations and "interpretations" so
goes into the review process as aligned as possible. All said, the key to a successful
review is to be absolutely certain that every required component is clearly marked in the
plan and on the FEMA Review Tool.
Nothing can replace EPC's years of experience and track record at facilitating and
writing FEMA-approved Hazard Mitigation Plans. This experience has also prepared us
for any unexpected challenges with other aspects of the planning process — Planning
Team Meetings, community outreach, and participating in the adoption meeting. EPC
prides itself on working closely with the jurisdiction's Point of Contact to bend and adjust
to the content, format, and scheduling needs.
Hazard Mitigation Planning Process
Preparation of the Hazard Mitigation Plan will be completed
in compliance with the requirements of the federal
government Disaster Mitigation Act of 2000 (DMA 2000),
FEMA's Local Multi -Hazard Mitigation Planning Guidance
published July 2008, the Local Mitigation Plan Review Guide
published in October 2011, and the Local Mitigation Planning
Handbook published March 2013. Building on those
Local Mitigation materials and other FEMA mitigation "how-to guides", the
Plan Review Guide following methodology will be utilized:
OcloLtr 1,:011
Planning Tools have been developed by EPC that
FEMA will significantly decrease the amount of jurisdictional staff
time required for completion of the HMP. EPC developed
these tools during preparation of the 2014 update to the County of Los Angeles All -
Hazards Mitigation Plan.
County of orange 0 Risk and Vulnerability Assessment includes
& preparing the Hazard Identification, Risk Assessment, and

of Orange and Orange County Fire Authority Hazard
Mitigation Plan as well as the 2018 State of California Multi -

General Plan — Safety Element and Emergency Operations
Plan will be reviewed for hazard and risk -related information
as well as history of previous occurrences. EPC also
Local Hazard Miniptlo Plan November maintains a broad range of resources for information
2015 regarding historical disasters. The EPC Team will base its
research on the hazards on those as identified in the
California Multi -Hazard Mitigation Plan. During the first Planning Team meeting, the
hazards will be discussed, and EPC will provide recommendations on a final
hazards list. The Risk Assessment in the HMP will include hazard -specific chapters
#36221v2 4
55A-19
Exhibit A
including EPC-produced hazard maps showing location of critical and essential
facilities and HAZUS-MH (see below).
Community Profile will be developed for the project area. More than just
demographics and organizational structure, the Profile will reflect the history and
unique characteristics of the community.
Mapping resources within the jurisdiction will be utilized by EPC to assist the reader
in understanding the location and vulnerability to hazards. Additionally, EPC will
produce any other maps necessary to properly explain the location of hazards as
they relate to critical and essential facilities. Also, see below for a discussion on
HAZUS-MH.
HAZUS-MH (Hazards United States — Multi -Hazard) is software produced by FEMA
designed to estimate loss projections for earthquake, hurricane, flooding, and
tsunami. EPC will provide nine HAZUS-MH Level 2 maps and reports — 6
earthquake scenarios and 3 flood scenario including Prado Dam inundation. The
scenarios will be selected by the Planning Team. HAZUS-MH utilizes data from the
most recent U.S. Census. That information is overlaid with a hazard scenario (e.g.
Newport -Inglewood Fault). In the case of an earthquake scenario, the HAZUS-MH
output is a map showing shaking intensities along with a very detailed report on
impacts to people, structures, infrastructure, and utilities. A sample HAZUS-MH
flood map prepared by EPC is shown below:

Exhibit A
Capability Assessment includes a list of the programs (budgets, facility
improvement plans), policies, and personnel available to each of the participating
jurisdictions to complete the Mitigation Strategy.
Mitigation Strategy is the comprehensive list of each existing and future
mitigation action item for the jurisdiction. The Planning Team members will be
relied on to identify the jurisdiction's ongoing mitigation action (e.g. tree trimming
before a storm, etc.) while ideas for the future will be drawn from the General
Plan -Safety Element and Capital Improvement Program along with ideas from
the Planning Team members. During this brainstorming process, members will
be encouraged to think through the various hazards and come up with projects
and programs that could be funded through HMGP and other pre- and post -
disaster funding mechanisms. EPC Tools will facilitate this process. FEMA
regulations, each of the mitigation action items will include a description of the
action item, identification of coordinating department, timeline, priority, cost,
benefit, goals accomplished, impacts to new and existing structures, and
planning tools for implementation. EPC will present simple tools for ranking cost
and benefit. The resulting Mitigation Actions Matrix is the very core of the
mitigation planning process and will include action planning tools to be used by
the Planning Team during the implementation process.
Community Outreach will be discussed at the first Planning Team Meeting. In
order to comply with FEMA requirements, it is critical that individuals and
organizations outside of the Planning Team have access to the Plan during the
"plan writing process".
o Numerous methods including social media will be utilized to announce the
availability of the Second Draft Plan and the opportunity to provide input. In
addition to encouraging participation in contributing to the Second Draft Plan,
EPC will provide the following community outreach tools:
• Distribution of EPC-produced handouts sharing mitigation techniques
available to residents and businesses.

Planning Team
The Planning Team will consist of representatives from the City as well any
contracted providers of service. As participants are selected, it's important to keep
in mind that hazard mitigation focuses on regulatory controls as well as construction
and maintenance of buildings and infrastructure. EPC will provide agendas,
handouts, minutes, and PowerPoints for each meeting. EPC President Carolyn
Harshman will facilitate each of the meetings.
o Planning Team Meeting #1 (2 hours)
• The purpose of the first meeting is to provide a general overview of the
project, timeline, gather pertinent documents, confirm roles and
membership of the Planning Team, review the concepts and standards
contained in the DMA 2000 regulations and FEMA Review Tool,
#36221v2
55A-22
Exhibit A
discuss availability of mapping resources, and discuss opportunities for
public participation.
• Initial review of hazards.
o Planning Team Meeting #2 (2 hours)
• The purpose of the second meeting is to review best practices in
hazard mitigation and examine opportunities to integrate the mitigation
plan with the City's existing development policies included in the
General Plan and other regulatory documents.
o Planning Team Meeting #3 (2 hours)
• The purpose of the second meeting is to begin work on the Mitigation
Strategy. This will involve capturing existing mitigation activities along
with developing mitigation action items for the future. EPC will work in
advance of the meeting to review the General Plan -Safety Element,
Annual Budget, and Capital Improvement Program in order to capture
any already identified mitigation -related projects.
o Planning Team Meeting #4 (2 hours)
• The purpose of the third meeting is to continue to develop new
mitigation action items. During the meeting EPC will distribute a
planning tool that contains a comprehensive list of mitigation actions
from a wide variety of jurisdictional plans. The use of this
comprehensive list will assist and expedite the Planning Team's
process of identifying existing and future mitigation actions.
o Planning Team Meeting #5 (2 hours)
• Review of the First Draft Plan will be preceded by advance distribution
of the document to the Planning Team via the City's Point of Contact.
The meeting will provide an opportunity for the Planning Team to share
comments and corrections to the document. Also, this meeting will
include a discussion on preparations and logistics for conducting the
public participation process and soliciting input from the general public
and external agencies during the distribution of the Second Draft Plan.
General Public and External Agency Input
FEMA requires the Second Draft Plan be made available to the general public
and external agencies (e.g. adjoining jurisdictions, servicing special districts,
etc.). EPC recommends posting the Second Draft Plan on the City's website and
using existing notification methods perhaps including a newsletter or other
means to inform the general public of the Plan's availability. As for the external
agencies, EPC will provide email content for distribution to the various agencies
(not yet including Cal OES and FEMA) including a link to the posting of the
Second Draft Plan. All information gathered will be included in the Third Draft
Plan.
Finalization will include sending an electronic copy of the Third Draft to the Point
of Contact along with a cover letter and completed FEMA Review Tool for
submission to Cal OES. Following any DMA 2000-justified revisions by EPC, Cal
OES will forward the Plan to FEMA for review and issuance of an Approval
#36221v2 8
55A-23
Exhibit A
Pending Adoption. As with the review by Cal OES, EPC will complete any DMA
2000-justified revisions while being certain to protect the City from unfair and
unjustified revisions. EPC guarantees the HMP will receive an Approval Pending
Adoption. Upon receipt of the Approval Pending Adoption letter from FEMA, the
Final Draft Plan will be scheduled for presentation to the City Council for
adoption. EPC will prepare a staff report and resolution. EPC President Carolyn
Harshman will be available for the presentation to the City Council should that be
desired. Following the meeting, proof of adoption will be forwarded to FEMA.
FEMA will then send an email and letter of Final Approval which will be
incorporated into the Final Plan. EPC will continue to lead the planning process
until the Final Approval is received from FEMA, proof of adoption by the decision
maker body is submitted to FEMA, and said documents are incorporated into the
Final Plan.
