| 20260120 | LA County | San Gabriel | City Council | Order of Business 4 | D. PURCHASE OF MOBILE DATA COMPUTERS AND DOCKING HARDWARE FROM DURATECH USA, INCORPORATED UNDER THE 2023 STATE HOMELAND SECURITY GRANT PROGRAM IN THE AMOUNT OF $89,705.28 The United Stated Department of Homeland Security (DHS) provides funding to state and local governments through the State Homeland Security Program (SHSP). In past years, the City has received several such grants to fund equipment and training for police officers, firefighters, and emergency managers. Since 2005, SHSP has assisted with providing funding for equipment that supports responses with a terrorism nexus and related training. The San Gabriel Police Department (SGPD) is allocated $90,000, which is exclusively dedicated to the procurement of Mobile Data Computers (MDCs) and docking hardware. These funds are restricted specifically for the purchase of equipment that enhances information and intelligence sharing, along with strengthening emergency communication capabilities through technology. The DHS will reallocate these funds to other local agencies if SGPD does not purchase the approved equipment within the allotted performance period. The 2023 SHSP sub-recipient agreement and Resolution No. 24-60 were presented and approved by the City Council on November 19, 2024, which awarded the City $90,000 in grant funds. This program does not require matching funds from the City. California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Determination: Not a Project as defined in Section 15378 of the State CEQA Guidelines. Recommended Action: Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to purchase 18 Getac Mobile Data Computers and all associated docking hardware from DuraTech USA, Incorporated, using the allocated State Homeland Security Program grant funding. | January 20, 2026 LA County San Gabriel City Council Order of Business 4 #D |
