Item No: 8C <br />MOUNDSIVIEW Meeting Date:07/10/2023 <br />Type of Business: Council Business <br />Administrator Review: <br />City of Mounds View Staff Report <br />To: Honorable Mayor and City Council <br />From: Ben Zender, Chief of Police <br />Item Title/Subject: Resolution 9776 Adoption of the Ramsey County <br />Comprehensive Emergency Operations Plan <br />Introduction: <br />The City Council will consider adopting the update to the Ramsey County <br />Comprehensive Emergency Operations Plan (CEOP). <br />Discussion: <br />The Ramsey County CEOP details all comprehensive emergency management efforts <br />within the County. It is designed to comply with all applicable federal and state <br />regulations and to provide the policies and procedures to be followed in dealing with a <br />significant emergency and/or disaster which requires a multi -jurisdictional response. <br />The CEOP identifies the hazards that could affect the county and the city, sets forth the <br />responsibilities of local government departments and agencies, and outlines a means <br />for local and state resources to be used to support impacted populations. <br />This is a countywide document that will provide cohesive, coordinated, and cooperation <br />among and between the municipal governments and the county. Approving the updated <br />plan maintains the City's eligibility for FEMA hazard mitigation grants should some sort <br />of disaster occur in Mounds View. There is no direct City cost associated with <br />participating in the CEOP. <br />Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Chapter 12, this plan will be reviewed annually and <br />updated as necessary by Ramsey County's Department of Emergency Management. <br />Future updates will require City Council adoption. <br />Recommendation: <br />Staff recommends the City Council adopt the attached resolution adopting the updated <br />Ramsey County Comprehensive Emergency Operations Plan. <br />Respectfully Submitted, <br />Ben Zender <br />Chief of Police <br />
