3 issues in public safety
AEDs at City Parks
The Sonoma County Fire District wants to install a public-access defibrillator cabinet at Sunrise Park, one of the city's busiest parks. Sudden cardiac arrest survival drops sharply without quick defibrillation, so having an AED on-site could save lives.
Emergency Radio System Project
The council continued funding the replacement of the city's emergency antenna and radio system, approving an extra $225,612.76 change order and a $155,145 budget amendment. This is the system police and fire rely on when you call 911.
El Niño Storm Preparedness and Creek Maintenance
A mobile home park resident warned the city isn't ready for a strong El Niño, citing inadequate storm drains at Rancho Verde and poor coordination with Sonoma Water on creek maintenance.
