| Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
| The California Governor's Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) sub-grants federal funding for the Emergency Services Performance Grant and acts as a pass-through for other state funds to local jurisdictions throughout the state. For each year's grant application process, Cal OES requires that the local governing board of each subgrantee jurisdiction designate an authorized agent to execute the necessary documents to obtain and administer the available federal funding. This designation will allow the Yolo Operational Area to continue to receive available funding during federal fiscal year 2021 and to apply for future funds as they become available. |
