Area Security Initiative grant from the federal Department of Homeland
Securi ty, through the State of California, Office of Homeland Security.
This initiative was designed to enhance the domestic preparedness of urban
areas by ensuring that all emergency first responders have adequate
equipment and systems to prevent, respond to and recover from acts of
terrorism. The grant provides total reimbursement to local agencies for
equipment purchases approved and authorized by the Office of Disaster
Preparedness.
The State Office of Homeland Security recently disencumbered Homeland
Security Grant funds and is now making these funds available to eligible
grant recipients. The City of Santa Ana has been identified as an eligible
recipient and may be awarded up to $4,000,000.
These funds must be expended within 60 days of receipt and will be used to
procure services and equipment needed to enhance the urban areas capability
to prevent, respond to and recover from acts of terrorism.
