STAFF REPORT
SUBJECT
Resolution authorizing the City of San Bernardino Fire Department to enter into a mutual
aid protection agreement with the State of California, Department of Forestry and Fire
Protection for the purpose of receiving a Federal Strip number to purchase products
through the General Services Administration.
BACKGROUND
The Fire Department is requesting authorization to enter into a mutual fire protection aid
agreement with the State of California, Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. The
agreement is to provide efficient use and coordination of fire service resources for
wildland fire protection incidents that are beyond the control of either party and to
provide quickest appropriate initial response regardless of jurisdictional boundaries.
The necessities of the agreement shall not impose an unconditional obligation on any
party to provide aid and assistance per the request from another party. Each party's
authorized designee will determine if needs within their jurisdiction are being addressed
prior to committing resources to jurisdictions beyond their boundaries.
In addition, the agreement will authorize the Fire Department to obtain a Federal
Standard Requisition and Issue Procedure number (known as FedStrip number) to
purchase equipment from the General Services Administration Wildfire Protection
Equipment and Supplies Catalog (GSA). GSA is a Federal purchasing agent that allows
State Forestry to purchase equipment, supplies, and services at the Federal government
rate. In order to realize this benefit, the City of San Bernardino must sign a Mutual Aid
Agreement with the State of California Department of Forestry, similar to the agreement
signed under the California State Master Mutual System already in effect. The process
will take approximately 8 to 12 months for the State to release a FedStrip number to the
City authorizing purchases from the GSA system.
The term of this mutual fire protection aid agreement is for five years from the date of
last signature on the agreement. Also, both parties have the right to terminate their
participation under the agreement by providing thirty (30) days written notice to the other
party.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no cost to the city. There is language contained within the agreement that
neither party shall be obligated to reimburse the other for any action taken or aid rendered
in the course of fire protection assistance.
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt resolution.

STAFF REPORT
SUBJECT
Resolution authorizing the City of San Bernardino Fire Department to enter into a mutual
aid protection agreement with the State of California, Department of Forestry and Fire
Protection for the purpose of receiving a Federal Strip number to purchase products
through the General Services Administration.
BACKGROUND
The Fire Department is requesting authorization to enter into a mutual fire protection aid
agreement with the State of California, Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. The
agreement is to provide efficient use and coordination of fire service resources for
wildland fire protection incidents that are beyond the control of either party and to
provide quickest appropriate initial response regardless of jurisdictional boundaries.
The necessities of the agreement shall not impose an unconditional obligation on any
party to provide aid and assistance per the request from another party. Each party's
authorized designee will determine if needs within their jurisdiction are being addressed
prior to committing resources to jurisdictions beyond their boundaries.
In addition, the agreement will authorize the Fire Department to obtain a Federal
Standard Requisition and Issue Procedure number (known as FedStrip number) to
purchase equipment from the General Services Administration Wildfire Protection
Equipment and Supplies Catalog (GSA). GSA is a Federal purchasing agent that allows
State Forestry to purchase equipment, supplies, and services at the Federal government
rate. In order to realize this benefit, the City of San Bernardino must sign a Mutual Aid
Agreement with the State of California Department of Forestry, similar to the agreement
signed under the California State Master Mutual System already in effect. The process
will take approximately 8 to 12 months for the State to release a FedStrip number to the
City authorizing purchases from the GSA system.
The term of this mutual fire protection aid agreement is for five years from the date of
last signature on the agreement. Also, both parties have the right to terminate their
participation under the agreement by providing thirty (30) days written notice to the other
ply.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
There is no cost to the city. There is language contained within the agreement that
neither party shall be obligated to reimburse the other for any action taken or aid rendered
in the course of fire protection assistance.
RECOMMENDATION
Adopt resolution.
