Title
Adopt City Council Resolution Approving Mutual Aid Agreement Providing for Emergency Assistance Among the County of Mendocino, City of Ukiah, City of Fort Bragg and other Signatory Cities or Special Districts
Summary
The City of Fort Bragg, City of Ukiah and County of Mendocino have been working on a solution to provide water to the unincorporated coastal area. The Mutual Aid Agreement provides the mechanism to allow the parties to move forward with hauling water from Ukiah to Fort Bragg that would then be resold by Fort Bragg to the water haulers on the Coast. The City Council adopted a Resolution in support of this solution at its August 23, special meeting. The Mutual Aid Agreement goes further in providing a process and template for future mutual aid efforts between the entities that could be expanded to include the City of Willits, Point Arena and other special districts or local agencies. The Mutual Aid Agreement strengthens all the parties' ability to plan for and respond to future emergencies.
