There is no property tax support increase in FY 2016. 2. HAZMAT expense remains at $200,000 in FY 2016 and is offset by Federal HAZMAT reimbursement revenue of $200,000. This will allow the Dubuque County Emergency Management Agency Commission to recover costs for all agencies involved in a hazardous materials incident in the county. The Emergency Management Agency per Dubuque County code of ordinances will gather all agencies costs for response and then will invoice the responsible party. Once paid, the Commission will deposit the check and then reimburse all -41- fire, EMS, Hazmat Teams, cities and Emergency Management Agency for their costs of response. The HAZMAT budget gives the Emergency Management Agency the spending authority in the event of a major event or multiple events. Revenue 3. Federal funding is anticipated to remain at $39,000 in FY 2016, which amounts to 21.1% of the total budget excluding HAZMAT of $200,000 for FY 2016. In FY 2015, the federal share supported 21.9% of the total budget excluding HAZMAT. 4. The City's participation of $80,000 remains unchanged from the prior Fiscal Year and reflects 43.4% of the total budget excluding HAZMAT in FY 2016 as opposed to 45.3% of the total budget excluding HAZMAT in FY 2015. 5. The County share of $53,406 remains unchanged and reflects 28.97% of the total budget excluding HAZMAT in FY 2016 as opposed to 30.3% of the total budget excluding HAZMAT in FY 2015. 6. Balances of $11,927 are being reduced from the FY 2016 operating budget. The goal is to keep the working cash balance at approximately 10% of their annual operating budget (excluding the designated balance of $26,000). The City and County agreed to this approach and the minimum balance to be maintained in the Emergency Management Fund. -42- EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT Plan and prepare for, respond to, and recover from natural and human made disasters in a coordinated response utilizing our local government and agency resources.

Maintaining the Dubuque County Comprehensive Emergency Plan and providing the proper training to agencies and services is vital to ensure responders are prepared to mitigate a multitude of emergencies including floods, tornadoes, earthquakes, severe weather major mass casualty incident, mass fatality incident, hazardous materials incident, nuclear attack, terrorism, bio -terrorism event, public health emergency, radiological incident and any other natural or man- made disaster. In 2014 the comprehensive emergency management plan conversion to emergency support functions completed a five year transition plan. The plan was approved by the State of Iowa Homeland Security and Emergency Management Division which in turn allows local government and public safety agencies eligible for federal disaster and emergency preparedness grants and funding. Other preparedness plans updated during 2014 include: • Hazard Analysis and Risk Assessment • Mass Fatalities Plan for the county Preparedness plans reviewed and updated annually include: • Dubuque City/County Severe Weather Plan, Mass Casualty Plan • Winter Storm Plan • Excessive Temperature Plan (In cooperation with City Health Services) • Multi -Jurisdictional Hazard Mitigation Plan • Recovery Plan • Emergency Operations Center Manual Preparedness Activities include: • Assisting the City of Dubuque Fire Department with the maintenance of the outdoor emergency warning system and conducting regular tests of the system throughout the City and County • Testing and operating the local Cable TV over ride system in the event of a local emergency or event affecting the City of Dubuque and Dubuque County • Providing twenty-four coverage of storm warning and operations at the Emergency Operations Center through a coordinated effort by the staff of the City and County. • Partnering and participating in the public health coalition to prepare for public health emergencies. -48- EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT Objective: Maintain a working relationship between all City Governments, County Government and public safety agencies to provide a uniform emergency response to reduce the impact of disasters to individuals and minimize damage to property. All disasters start at the local level and they also conclude at the local level. It is imperative that the county and cities provide mutual aid assistance to one another to start the immediate response to a major event. The key to successful working relationships during a disaster includes: • The planning process of developing response and mitigation plans. • Providing training to local emergency responders and staff that respond to emergencies. • Exercising the plans, conducting after action reviews and making revisions. • Maintaining a great working relationship with our partners in neighboring jurisdictions, regional EMA's, the state and also FEMA. • Exercising plans and conducting tabletop, functional and full scale exercises with community members. Objective: Actively promote Emergency Management activities to ensure citizens are prepared for unforeseen disasters and promote an atmosphere of personal security. The emergency management director participates in educating the citizens for emergency preparedness activities and talks to schools, groups, organizations and citizens to provide information to help them prepare their emergency plans. Upon request by local service clubs, organizations and institutions the EMA Director has a planned presentation about severe weather awareness and emergency preparedness. The agency is active in working with local schools to assist with emergency drills and severe weather shelter areas. This includes local colleges, high schools, grade schools in the City of Dubuque and Dubuque County. The agency will participate with local school emergency planning committees at their request. When a local disaster exceeds the response and recovery capabilities of the local and state governments, federal aid can be requested by the Governor and awarded through a Presidential Disaster Declaration. As you can see from the chart, there have been local disasters that qualified for a Presidential Declaration. The information in the chart below shows the total dollar amount of public assistance damages for all governmental entities and non 8,000,000: 6,000,000-1 4,000,000./ 2,000,000. 2001 2002 2004 2008 2010 2011 O Public Assistance Damages from recent Presidentially declared disasters -49- EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT profits for each of the presidential disasters since 2001.
