Massachusetts Elementary Students Led Campaign to Install ‘3-D’
Crosswalk in Front of School
The optical illusion uses shaded block of paint to make crossing stripes appear to float in the air
Fifth-grader Eric and fourth-grader Isa spent a year working to bring their idea to life (City of Medford/Mayor’s Office via Facebook)
By Meilan Solly

April 25, 2019
Thank fifth-grader Eric and fourth-grader Isa of Brooks Elementary School in Medford, Massachusetts, for a new optical illusion designed to force drivers to slow
down in their community school zone. As Matt Rocheleau reports for the Boston Globe, the pair, spurred to action by a classmate's narrow miss with a speeding car,
successfully petitioned the city to install an unusual crosswalk near their school. The nontraditional crosswalk debuted earlier this week and will soon be joined by
similar “3-D” crosswalks installed at Medford’s three other elementary schools.
According to Mental Floss’ Michele Debczak, the design concept is simple: to create the illusion, the two-dimensional, grayish blocks are simply angled off of
brighter shades. The result makes the flat white sidewalk stripes appear as raised blocks to oncoming cars.
Medford is far from the first city to employ such eye-catching crossings: Dubbed “Icelandic crosswalks” in honor of the country that popularized them, the traffic
safety tools have also caught on in Kansas, India, China and Russia, Iceland magazine reports. In 2017, Ralf Trylla, the local government worker behind the
“levitating” crosswalk in the Icelandic city of Ísafjörður, told Quartz’s Anne Quito that the illusion offers a promising alternative to speed bumps, which have been
shown to exacerbate air pollution levels by encouraging drivers to abruptly speed up, then slow down.

Known as "Icelandic crosswalks" in honor of the country that popularized them, the unusual crossings use an optical illusion to force drivers to slow
down (Gústi Productions via YouTube)
Still, as Adam Gaffin of Boston-area news site Universal Hub points out, the design has its critics. Last year, Cambridge, home of Harvard University, opted to
leave its crosswalks as is amid concerns that drivers would view Icelandic crossings as “real raised objects in the roadway” and therefore swerve to avoid them.
This likely won’t be an issue with the Brooks Elementary School crosswalk, which Gaffin reports is situated at the corner of a “narrow side street that almost forces
drivers … to go slowly anyway as they turn onto it.”
According to local news station WBZ4, the students behind the idea, Isa and Eric (whose brother had the brush with the speeding vehicle), spent a year working on
their proposal. Aided by Michael Coates, a teacher at the school and adviser to the city’s Center for Citizenship and Social Responsibility, the duo shared their
proposal with local leaders including Medford Mayor Stephanie Burke. After the city later gave the work the green light, it commissioned artist Nate Swain to
implement the design while students were away for spring break.
“It’s a pretty cool concept for traffic calming and I do like the idea of slowing traffic down,” Swain—a local artist known for creating photo murals in Boston’s
North End, according to Curbed’s Tom Acitelli—tells the Globe’s Rocheleau.
It remains to be seen how parents, students and Medford residents will react to the crossing, but the finished product has at least one vocal fan: As Isa tells WBZ4,
“I love it. It looks amazing. Exactly how I pictured it and more."

Recommended Action
Recommend that the City Council adopt the updated Emergency Operations Plan.
Discussion
The Office of Emergency Services is charged by the City with the preparation and
execution of a written plan designed to address the City’s response to man-made and
natural disasters.
Staff from the Cupertino’s Office of Emergency Services has updated the Emergency
Operation Plan (EOP) consistent with the current standards in emergency management.
The EOP outlines the necessary roles and responsibilities that will be discharged by the
City staff and volunteers in the event of a disaster in Cupertino.
The EOP continues the City’s compliance with the California Standardized Emergency
Management System (SEMS) and the National Incident Management System (NIMS). It
facilitates multi-agency and multi-jurisdictional coordination during emergency
operations, public information functions and resource management.
This staff report serves to inform the community of the updated EOP as a public
document that outlines the City of Cupertino’s actions before, during and after an
emergency and guides the City’s response to major emergencies/disasters.
If this plan is not updated, the current plan dated September 2005 will remain in place.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City of Cupertino Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) is an all-hazards document
describing the City incident management organization, compliance with relevant legal
statutes, other relevant guidelines, whole community engagement, continuity of
government focus, and critical components of the incident management structure. The
incident management system is a component-based system designed to be scaled up and
components activated as necessary to reflect the incident/event’s escalation from routine
incident(s) to emergency, disaster, or catastrophe affecting the City. This EOP is not
intended to address specific emergency responses, scenarios, hazards, or threats.
Functional and hazard specific annexes to this EOP will outline specific response
activities for response organizations.
This Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) accomplishes the following:
Establishes a City incident management organization which will coordinate and
support on-scene responses including maintenance of situational awareness,
facilitation of effective communication between operations centers at various levels
of government, maintain continuity of government, and interaction with public
information sources.
Establishes the overall operational concepts associated with the management of
incidents, emergencies, crises, disasters, and catastrophes within the City.
Provides a flexible platform for planning and response to all hazards, incidents,
events, and emergencies believed to be important to the City. It is applicable to a
wide variety of anticipated incident events including earthquake, wildland fires,
floods, and public health issues.
This EOP continues to support the City’s compliance with the Standardized Emergency
Management System (SEMS), the National Incident Management System (NIMS), the
Incident Command System (ICS), the National Response Framework (NRF), and the
National Preparedness Guidelines to include Comprehensive Preparedness Guide 101:
Developing and Maintaining Emergency Operations Plans. It facilitates multi-agency and
multi-jurisdictional coordination during emergency operations, public information
functions, and resource management.
This EOP serves as the legal and conceptual framework for incident management to be
utilized by the City and its various departments. There are several separately published
annexes that support this EOP. These supporting annexes further describe the operational
or functional response to specific threats and hazards and the basic considerations, actions,
and responsibilities of specific emergency response and management disciplines or
functions.

PROMULGATION
The preservation of life, property, the environment, and the economy are an inherent
responsibility of local, state, and federal government. While no plan can completely
prevent death and destruction, reasonable plans carried out by knowledgeable and well-
trained personnel can and will minimize losses.
The City has prepared this Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) and
National Incident Management System (NIMS) compliant City Emergency Operations
Plan (EOP) to ensure the most effective and efficient allocation of resources for the
maximum benefit and protection of the civilian population during times of emergency.
This EOP establishes the emergency organization, assigns tasks, specifies policies and
general procedures, and provides for coordination of planning efforts for respective staff.
This EOP will be reviewed and exercised periodically and revised as necessary to satisfy
changing conditions and needs.
The Cupertino City Council gives their full support to this Emergency Operations Plan
and urges all officials, employees, and residents—individually and collectively—to do
their share in the whole community emergency effort of the City. This EOP became
effective on January XX, 2018 when approved by the City Council

ANNUAL REVIEW
Office of Emergency Services, with input from essential stakeholders across the City, is
responsible for maintaining, reviewing, and updating this Emergency Operations Plan
(EOP). They will—at a minimum—review this EOP every year. It is essential that OES
make revisions and updates in collaboration with participating local jurisdictions and
other planning partners identified in the EOP to ensure accuracy and validity. If the EOP
requires an immediate change due to lessons learned from trainings, exercises, or actual
incidents, the City will identify a course of action for the review, update, and
implementation of the necessary changes. All changes will be noted in the table below.

PURPOSE , SCOPE, SITUATION OVERVIEW AND ASSUMPTIONS
PURPOSE
The purpose of this emergency plan is:
To create a framework for Cupertino response personnel that will make the
continual planning process both very clear and relatively easy.
To identify the hazards that exist in Cupertino.
To enhance the development of Local Hazard Mitigation Planning on an ongoing
basis.
To address the needs of all people located in Cupertino when a disaster
happens.
To support collaborative efforts with not only City staff, but also external partners
such as fire services, law enforcement, utilities, community groups, volunteers,
and the American Red Cross. This concept serves to enhance not only response
and recovery activities, but also municipal preparedness and community
education.
To outline clearly the strengths and weaknesses of the City in its preparedness
activities. This plan will help City leadership assess training needs and where
needs exist for other preparedness activities.
To guide the City through an effective and skillful response to any emergency.
The Response Section is useful both in relation to the other sections of the plan
and as a separate document unto itself. As part of the larger document, it
provides continuity between the Preparedness and Recovery Sections and must
be kept up to date in concert with those sections. It will also be useful and
necessary in the Emergency Operations Center during an emergency, where
staff will be able to refer to it and direct response efforts with it.
To aid the recovery process of a disaster.
This City of Cupertino Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) provides a comprehensive,
single-source of guidance and procedure for the City to prepare for, respond to, and
manage significant or catastrophic natural or man-made threats, crises, incidents, or
events that produce situations requiring a coordinated response. This EOP is intended to
conform to the requirements of the National Incident Management System (NIMS),
Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS), Incident Command System
(ICS), and the California State Emergency Plan for managing response to multi-agency
and multi-jurisdictional incidents, and to be consistent with federal and state emergency
plans and guidance documents. Best practices and lessons-learned have also been
integrated into this plan where possible; these were identified in the review of after-action
reports from recent national large-scale disasters, incidents, and events (to include
Stafford Act, non-Stafford Act, terrorist non-Stafford act, and off-shore non-Stafford act
incidents and events).

City of Cupertino
This EOP is intended as a concept of collaboration and consistency amongst various
internal departments and their specific incident management plans, procedures, functions,
and capabilities. As such, the EOP is flexible enough to use in all incident types and will
facilitate short-term recovery activities.
In the event of an emergency or disaster the City’s primary responsibility is to maximize
the safety of the public, to minimize property and environmental damage, and ensure the
continuity of government. To aid in accomplishing this goal, the City has adopted the
principles of SEMS, NIMS, and ICS so that responses to such conditions are done in the
most organized, efficient, and effective manner possible. All jurisdictions within the
Operational Area (OA) operate under SEMS, NIMS, and ICS, which are used to manage
and control the response operations.
SCOPE
The EOP serves as the foundational document for the City’s emergency management
activities. While all City resources may be called upon as needed, specific departmental
responsibilities are outlined in the EOP Base Plan and associated annexes. To ensure the
City is adequately prepared, all City departments are required to actively participate in
preparedness and planning activities to include the development of departmental plans,
policies, and procedures as necessary to fulfill their assigned roles and obligations.
The EOP embraces the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) "Whole
Community" approach to emergency management and, in addition to City resources,
recognizes the roles of special districts, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs),
community-based organizations (CBOs), faith-based organizations (FBOs), private-sector
businesses, educational organizations, and other stakeholders. Additionally, the EOP is
intended to reflect the wide variety of support that may be required by residents, visitors,
and businesses, including people with disabilities and others with access or functional
needs. Consideration for people with disabilities, access or functional needs will be given
in all aspects of City emergency planning.
Certain groups and organizations will need to interface with the City's Emergency
Operations Center (EOC) and among each other, including in circumstances where
normal telecommunications may be impaired. By understanding the elements of this plan,
the City and such organizations can facilitate that process.
All members of the community should understand the potential risks and hazards we face
and the obligation to prepare personally, at a family level, and in one's organization.
LIMITATIONS
While many of the elements outlined in the EOP are designed for flexibility and
can be utilized as-needed to address several emergency and non-emergency
events, some activities require special activation or a formal disaster
05/09/2019

proclamation by the City Council or others. Similarly, the EOP is not meant to
outline procedures for routine incidents or minor emergencies which are
adequately addressed through existing processes.
The EOP identifies operational strategies and plans for managing inherently
complex and potentially catastrophic events. City assets, resources, and
departments are potentially vulnerable and may become overwhelmed.
Deviations from the organizational and response structures outlined in the EOP
may be required, based upon evolving needs and available resources. The EOP is
designed to promote flexibility whenever possible and is not intended to limit the
use of good judgment and common sense in matters not foreseen or adequately
addressed by elements of the EOP and its associated annexes, appendices, or
plans.

SITUATION OVERVIEW
Cupertino is a U.S. city of 11.31 sq miles in Santa Clara County, California, directly west
of San Jose on the western edge of the Santa Clara Valley with portions extending into
the foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Cupertino is bordered to the north by
Sunnyvale, to the east by Santa Clara and San Jose, to the south by San Jose and
Saratoga, and to the west by unincorporated Santa Clara County.
Rapid growth ensued during the 1940’s with war development and incorporation
followed in1955. The establishment of De Anza College in the 1960’s and Apple
Computer Inc. in the 1970’s led to the development of modern Cupertino as a high tech
hub housing not only Apple but other major high tech companies such as Symantec,
Portal, and Hewlett-Packard as well.
Quality schools and closeness to technology jobs make Cupertino a desirable address for a
highly educated and culturally diverse population. More than 60 percent of residents aged 25
years or older hold a bachelor’s degree or higher, and more than 40 percent were born
outside of the United States.
Cupertino aspires to be a balanced community with quiet and attractive residential
neighborhoods; exemplary parks and schools; accessible open space areas, hillsides and
creeks.
Develop cohesive neighborhoods, improve public health and safety, improve connectivity,
enhance mobility, ensure a balanced community, support vibrant and mixed-use business,
ensure attractive community design, embrace diversity, support education, preserve the
environment, ensure fiscal self-reliance. Ensure a responsive government,
Cupertino’s population of 64,220 with 22,207 households at the last census increases daily to
160,000 due to De Anza and other local businesses. City employs 180 people with a majority
living outside of Cupertino.
Transportation, Major freeways 280 and 85 dissect Cupertino and due to its location we
become a thoroughfare for the morning and afternoon commute on surface streets.
Union Pacific has an active railroad along the west side of the City which delivers fuel to
the Lehigh Cement Factory in unincorporated Santa Clara County. Airports servicing the
area are San Francisco International Airport and San Jose International and two
regional airports Reed Hillview and Palo Alto Municipal.

Unique issues to Cupertino,
Stevens Creek Reservoir is an earthen dam just beyond the southern border managed by
Santa Clara Valley Water District. Stevens Creek dam and reservoir is one of six original
systems approved for construction by voters in 1934. It was completed in 1935. In 1985, an
additional 231,000 cubic yards of material was added to the dam, raising it 10 feet. The
reservoir capacity is 3,138 acre-feet of water. Its surface area is 92 acres. The inundation
area divides the city in half and specific emergency plan was developed to address its
specific issues.
Contracted services are the City strategy. Various services are contracted and through those
relationships special considerations are needed to address these services as it relates to
emergency planning and response.
Gas and Water regional major transmission lines run through the west side of the City.
HAZARD ANALYSIS OVERVIEW
This section of the EOP consists of a series of threat summaries based upon the
Cupertino annex to the OA hazard mitigation plan. This hazard analysis was
conducted by the Santa Clara County Office of Emergency Management (OEM) and
provides a description of the local area, risk factors, and the anticipated nature of
situations, which could threaten or occur in the City. If future annex or hazard
mitigation plan development result in more current or robust hazard or threat analysis
data, future EOP revisions will incorporate that data into this section. The following
identified threats are discussed:
Major Earthquake
Wildland/Urban Interface Fire
Flood
Landslide
Drought/Land Subsidence
Climate Change
Thunderstorms and Lightning
Heat
Public Health Emergency
Technological and Resource Emergency
Hazardous Material Incident
Terrorism, Complex and Coordinated Attack, & Civil Unrest
It is important to note that these hazards are not mutually exclusive hazards. One or
more of these events may occur simultaneously. Specific actions to be accomplished
in response to these hazards as well as details of these hazards are contained in the

functional and hazard specific annexes that are separate from this EOP as well as
department specific SOPs.
PLANNING ASSUMPTIONS
The organizations described or noted in this EOP will be aware of significant emergency
conditions as they arise. These conditions will trigger a response consistent with the
respective responsibilities and roles defined either by the EOP, or other legal and policy
frameworks. The responding organizations will be constrained in their response by the
level of training, readiness activities, and interagency coordination undertaken prior to
the incident. The planning assumptions are as follows:
The City of Cupertino is susceptible to a number of hazards and risks that may
result in critical incidents
Critical incidents include a variety of natural, technological, or human-made
emergencies and disasters
Some critical incidents may have advance warning while others will not
All City departments will participate in planning and preparedness activities as
required
City personnel will be adequately trained to perform the roles in which they are
assigned
The City's EOC will be partially or fully activated to support operations during
critical incidents.
City personnel may be unable or unavailable to report to work or as assigned
Non-essential City operations may be reduced or cancelled in order to prioritize
resources
Immediate response to fire and law emergencies will be the responsibility
of Santa Clara County Fire and the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Office
Mutual aid and other assistance will be requested when City resources are
inadequate, but outside assistance and support may be unavailable for
extended periods of time
Communications equipment and infrastructure may be damaged or disrupted
Transportation infrastructure may be damaged or disrupted and access to
critical facilities may be blocked
Critical infrastructure and utilities such as natural gas, water, and electricity
may be severely impacted.
Residents, businesses, and other entities may need to be self-sufficient for one
week or more

City of Cupertino
Additional planning, resources, and support will be needed to support
people with disabilities and others with access and functional needs.
Public, private and volunteer organizations, and the general public will have to
utilize their own resources and be self-sufficient for potentially several days,
possibly longer.
In the event of a large-scale incident or event, it may become necessary to shelter
a substantial number of the City population due to either evacuation or damage
to residences.
A catastrophic earthquake would adversely impact local government and
response capabilities. Consequently, a number of local emergencies may be
proclaimed.
Large numbers of medically fragile evacuees may require transportation to/from
shelter locations.
Infrastructure damage may limit the number of emergency response personnel
available to staff the City EOC or other incident management organization
functions for at least 12 hours.
In the event of a complex large incident or event, a clear picture regarding the
extent of damage, loss of life, and injuries may not be known for well over a day.
County support of City emergency operations will be based on the principal of
self-help. The City will be responsible for utilizing all available local resources
along with initiating mutual aid and cooperative assistance agreements before
requesting assistance from the county per SEMS.
The City’s planning, policies, strategies, operations, and tactics will make every
effort to consider the needs of the general population, children of all ages,
individuals with disabilities and others with access and functional needs.
Some evacuees may require specialized medical care found only in a hospital,
and/or access to medication, refrigeration, mobility devices, or service animals.
City EOC capabilities may be limited for the first operational period if
communications links to other agencies and City departments are impacted.
Essential City services will be maintained as long as conditions permit.
An emergency will require prompt and effective response and recovery
operations by the entire City incident management enterprise, to include
emergency services, mutual aid resources, disaster relief and volunteer
organizations, the private sector, the elected, executive, strategic, operational,
and tactical incident responders, and the whole community.

CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS
05/09/2019
40 of 105
10 | P a g e Office of Emergency Services
City of Cupertino
CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS
The City conforms to, and this EOP complies with, SEMS, NIMS, and ICS guidelines.
The Office of Emergency Services (OES) identifies potential threats to life, property and
the environment, and then develops plans and procedures to respond to those threats.
These plans and procedures will help to coordinate and support emergency response and
recovery activities and will be tested through exercises and validated by the results of
actual response. The goal is to maintain a robust incident management organization with
strong collaborative ties among governments, community-based organizations,
volunteers, public service agencies, and the private sector.
NATIONAL RESPONSE FRAMEWORK (NRF)
The NRF is based upon the premise that incidents are handled at the lowest jurisdictional
level. In the vast majority of incidents, state and local resources and interstate mutual aid
will provide the first line of emergency response and incident management support.
When state resources and capabilities are overwhelmed, Governors may request federal
assistance. The NRF provides the framework for federal interaction with state, local,
tribal, private sector and non-governmental entities in the context of domestic incident
management to ensure timely and effective federal support.
The NRF is the core operational plan for national incident management, and establishes
national-level coordinating structures, processes, and protocols that will be incorporated
into certain existing federal interagency incident or hazard-specific plans. The NRF is
intended to facilitate coordination among local, state, tribal, and federal governments and
the private sector without impinging on any jurisdiction or restricting the ability of those
entities to do their jobs. The NRF does not alter or impede the ability of first responders
to carry out their specific authorities or perform their responsibilities.
The NRF and NIMS are designed to work in tandem to improve the Nation’s incident
management capabilities and overall efficiency. Use of NIMS enables local, state, tribal,
and federal governments and private-sector and non-governmental organizations (NGOs)
to work together effectively and efficiently to prevent, prepare for, respond to, and
recover from actual or potential domestic incidents regardless of cause, size, or
complexity.
STANDARD EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (SEMS)
SEMS is required by California Government Code Section 8607(a) for managing
response to multi-agency and multi-jurisdiction incidents in California. SEMS
incorporates the use of the ICS, the California Master Mutual Aid Agreement, the
Operational Area Concept, and multi-agency coordination. Local governments must use
05/09/2019
41 of 105
P a g e | 11
Office of Emergency Services
City of Cupertino
SEMS to be eligible for reimbursement of their response-related personnel costs under
state disaster assistance programs.
NATIONAL INCIDENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (NIMS)
NIMS provides a comprehensive, whole community, whole government approach to
incident management for all hazards and integrates existing best practices into a
consistent nationwide approach to domestic incident management that is applicable to all
jurisdictional levels and across functional disciplines. NIMS is based on a balance of
flexibility and standardization that allows government and private entities at all levels to
work together to manage domestic incidents, regardless of their cause, size, location, or
complexity. Five major components make up this system’s approach: preparedness;
communications and information management; resource management; command and
management; and ongoing management and supporting technologies.
INCIDENT COMMAND SYSTEM (ICS)
A primary component of SEMS and NIMS, ICS is a standardized on-scene emergency
management system designed to allow for an integrated organizational structure equal to
the complexity and demands of single or multiple incidents without being hindered by
jurisdictional boundaries. ICS addresses both organization and process. ICS is used to
manage facilities, equipment, personnel, procedures, and communications through the
use of a common organizational structure and standardized procedures, per the ICS Field
Operations Guide (ICS 420-1).
INTEGRATING FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL SYSTEMS
Taken together the NRF, SEMS, NIMS, ICS, and this EOP integrate the capabilities and
resources of various governmental jurisdictions, incident management and emergency
response disciplines, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and the private sector into
a cohesive, coordinated, and seamless national framework for domestic incident
management. It should be understood that field level emergency responders, Department
Operations Center (DOC) staff, Emergency Operations Center (EOC) staff, department
executives, elected officials, and public information officers all have a vital role in
successful comprehensive incident management.

PHASES OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT
Emergency management functions are generally grouped into the four phases of
mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery. The
grouping of emergency management functions is
useful for classifying and conceptualizing activities.
While useful for targeting efforts and resources, the
phases of emergency management are not distinct—
activities in each phase often overlap with other
phases. For example, recovery projects often include
elements of mitigation (i.e., rebuilding structures using
current building codes) and response often includes
recovery measures (i.e., immediate debris removal).
The phases are also cyclical in nature—lessons learned
from an incident are applied in preparedness efforts for
future emergencies and major disasters. The following sections provide examples of the
types of activities that take place in each phase.
MITIGATION
Mitigation activities occur before, during, and after incidents. Post-disaster mitigation
is part of the recovery process. Eliminating or reducing the impact of hazards that
exist within the City and are a threat to life and property are p art of the mitigation
efforts.
Mitigation tools include:
Detailed plans to mitigate future hazards
Land use planning
Local ordinances and statutes (zoning ordinances, building codes, etc.)
Structural measures
Tax levies or abatements
Public information and community relations
Contracts to include emergency component
PREPAREDNESS
Preparedness activities are taken in advance of an emergency and develop operational
capabilities, enact protective measures, and enhance effective responses to a disaster.
These activities can include emergency/disaster planning, training and exercises, and
public education. Citizen Preparedness activities are key elements in this phase and a
significant factor in the success of a community in responding to an emergency.
EOPs, SOPs, and checklists detailing personnel assignments, policies, notification
rosters, and resource lists are developed during this phase. Personnel are made
05/09/2019
43 of 105
P a g e | 13
Office of Emergency Services
City of Cupertino
familiar with these EOPs, SOPs, and checklists through periodic training in the
activation and execution of procedures.
OES maintains several contact lists of agencies and personnel critical to emergency
operations. Those lists include; City EOC responders, key contacts within cities/towns
and county agencies, state agency contacts, and other organizational contacts.
RESPONSE
The response phase can be further broken down into three types of response—pre-
emergency, immediate, and on-going emergency responses.
PRE-EMERGENCY RESPONSE
If warning mechanisms exist for a particular hazard then response actions to
emphasize protection of life, property, and environment can be anticipated. Typical
pre-emergency and crisis response actions may include:
Alerting necessary agencies, placing critical resources on stand-by
Warning threatened populations of the emergency and apprising them of safety
measures to be implemented
Evacuation of threatened populations to safe areas
Identifying the need for mutual aid
Proclamation of a Local Emergency by local authorities
IMMEDIATE EMERGENCY RESPONSE
During this phase, emphasis is placed on saving lives and property, attempting to
establish and maintain control of the situation, and minimizing effects of the disaster.
Immediate response is accomplished within the affected area by local government
agencies and segments of the private sector. The primary activities are on-scene by
first or early responders.
SUSTAINED EMERGENCY RESPONSE
In addition to continuing preservation of life and property operations, mass care,
relocation, public information, situation analysis, status and, damage assessment
operations may be initiated. Sustained response usually involves many organizations
and the activation of the City’s EOC.
RECOVERY
At the onset of an emergency, actions are taken to enhance the effectiveness of
recovery operations. Recovery includes both short-term activities intended to return
vital life-support systems to operation, and long-term activities designed to return
05/09/2019

City of Cupertino
infrastructure systems to pre-disaster conditions. The recovery phase may also include
cost recovery activities. The major objectives of the recovery period include:
Reinstatement of family and community integrity
Provision of essential public services
Restoration of private and public property
Identification of residual hazards
Preliminary plans to mitigate future hazards
Recovery of costs associated with response and recovery efforts
Coordination of state and federal public and individual assistance

Office of Emergency Services
City of Cupertino
ORGANIZATION AND ASSIGNMENT OF RESPONSIBILITIES
SEMS designates five organizational levels—field response, local government, OA,
region, and state—with each level being activated as needed.
FIELD RESPONSE
Field response includes on-scene activities and coordination, consistent with ICS, and
includes the use of an Incident Command Post (ICP). Depending upon the incident,
multiple ICPs may be established at various sites throughout an impacted area and an
Area Command may also be established. Resource requests and situation reports are
routed from the field to the next SEMS organizational level, either through participating
response agencies or the local Emergency Operations Center (EOC) if activated.
Department Operations Centers (DOC) provide internal coordination for specific
departments and may interface as an intermediate level of coordination between the field
and the EOC while coordinating and maintaining department operations unrelated to the
incident.
LOCAL GOVERNMENT
The City is the local government retaining the responsibility and authority for managing
response activities within it’s borders. To support these efforts, Cupertino may activate
it’s EOC. The EOC provides agency coordination, provides logistical support, establishs
common operating procedures, identifies overarching priorities, and prioritizes available
resources. Additionally, the EOC coordinates with the Operational Area (OA)/County
EOC.
In addition to the City, the Santa Clara County Central Fire Protection District has local
government responsiiliy for fire, hazmat, and EMS responses within the City.
CITY EMERGENCY ORGANIZATION
Relevant Ordinances: The City of Cupertino Ordinance, Chapter 2.40 establishes The
City Manager as the Director of Emergency Services. Council resolution additionally
identifies succession of the Director of Emergency Services. The Director of Emergency
Services is responsible to the City Council.
Responsibilities during activations
Each City department and supporting agency is tasked with certain operations during
emergencies and disasters. Working with Office of Emergency Services, each
department is responsible for planning for their roles.

CITY EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER (CITY EOC)
The Director of Emergency Services is supported by OES staff and will coordinate
the City’s strategic disaster response and management out of the City EOC.
An EOC is a location from which centralized emergency management can be
performed during an emergency or disaster. An EOC makes possible a coordinated
response by the Director of Emergency Services, emergency management staff, and
representatives from agencies and other organizations who are assigned emergency
management responsibilities. An EOC provides a central location of authority and
information and allows for face to face coordination and collaboration among
personnel that represent governmental incident management functions/capabilities
who must make strategic emergency decisions to ensure incident support and
continuity of government.
The following activities are performed in the EOC:
Information Sharing
Resource Management
Support of field response operations
Planning and prioritizing ongoing operations
Receive and disseminate warning information
Prepare intelligence/information summaries, situation reports, operational
reports, and other reports as needed
Maintain general and specific maps, information display boards, and other data
pertaining to emergency operations and situation awareness
Planning and prioritizing ongoing operations
Analysis and evaluation of all data pertaining to City emergency operations
Maintain contact and coordination with DOCs, the OA EOC, and other local
jurisdictions and agencies
Provide emergency information and instructions to the public, making official
releases to the news media and the scheduling of press conferences as
necessary
Develop emergency policies and procedures in collaboration with senior policy
advisory executives

LOCATION
The Cupertino EOC is located within the Cupertino City Hall at 10300 Torre Ave,
Cupertino. The alternate EOC, which would be activated should the primary
EOC be inoperable or otherwise inaccessible, is located at the City Service Center 10555
Mary Ave, Cupertino.
ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION
The EOC will be activated/deactivated at the direction of the Director of Emergency
Services as detailed in various appendices and annexes. The EOC will be activated to
a level determined by the event.
OBJECTIVES The overall objective of emergency management is to ensure the effective
government preparedness, mitigation, response, and recovery for situations associated

objectives, establishing priorities, and making decisions that affect county
government and the general public
Coordinate and work with appropriate federal, state and other local
government agencies, as well as applicable segments of private sector entities
and private nonprofit agencies to assess situation status, monitor resource
needs, and coordinate requests for resources from outside agencies and
jurisdictions
Establish priorities and resolve conflicting demands for support or resources
Ensure Continuity of government priorities, objectives, and actions are taken

OPERATIONAL AREA (OA)
The Operational Area (OA) provides coordination within the county and between all
political subdivisions. The OA coordinates response activities within the county’s
geographic area through the County EOC, if activated. The OA also serves as a link to
regional level and all other OAs within the region. The City of Cupertino is part of the
Santa Clara County OA and coordinates closely with the Santa Clara County Office of
Emergency Management (SCCOEM). The City participates in OA planning and, during a
critical incident, coordinates with the OA through either SCCOEM or the Santa Clara
County EOC, if activated.

COASTAL REGION
Because of its size and geography, the state has been divided into three administrative
regions each with an EOC, to include the Southern, Coastal, and Inland regions. Santa
Clara County is in the Coastal Region. Additionally, the state has been divided into six
mutual aid regions. Santa Clara County resides in Mutual Aid Region Two. The Regional
Emergency Operations Center (REOC) prioritizes requests and provides support to the
OAs in their region. This is to provide for more effective application and coordination of
mutual aid and other related activities.
STATE
The State Operations Center (SOC) level is in Sacramento at the Cal OES headquarters.
Cal OES manages state resources in response to the emergency needs of the other levels.
The state also serves as the coordination and communication link between the state and
the federal disaster response system.
ADDITI ONAL SUPPORT AND PLANNING ORGANIZATIONS
The groups, committees, and organizations identified below all participate in ensuring the
City’s preparedness to respond to emergencies and disasters.
DISASTER SERVICE WORKERS (DSWS)
In accordance with state law (California Code of Regulations (CCR) Title 2, Division
2, Chapter 2, Subchapter 3) and City ordinance all City employees are designated as
disaster service workers DSW. In the event of an emergency the expectation is that
City employees will secure their own homes and families and then, if possible and if
they are so instructed, they will return to the county to assist in response activities.
Continuity of government services is critical during disasters, and City employees will
play an important role in maintaining the services necessary for the community to
recover from a disaster.
The Disaster Service Worker Volunteer Program (DSWVP) was created as the result
of legislation to provide workers’ compensation benefits to registered Disaster Service
Worker (DSW) volunteers who are injured while participating in authorized disaster-
related activities, including pre-approved training. Disaster service, as defined for the
Program, is designed to aid in the response and recovery phases in a disaster or
emergency. It does not include the day-to-day emergency response activities typically
associated with, for example, law enforcement, fire services or emergency medical
services. The Program also provides limited immunity from liability.
DSW volunteers includes:

COMMUNITY EMERGENCY RESPONSE TEAM (CERT) The CERT program educates people
about disaster preparedness for hazards that may impact their immediate area and
trains them in basic disaster response skills such as: fire safety, light search and
rescue, team organization, and disaster medical operations.
CUPERTINO AMATEUR RADIO EMERGENCY SERVICE (CARES) Cupertino has trained
amateur radio operators. CARES radio operators are a primary source of initial
damage assessment in any significant incident. They respond immediately to any
obvious incident with assessment of their local area and report to personnel at the
EOC.
MEDICAL RESERVE CORP (MRC)
Cupertino's trained MRC volunteers are utilized to improve emergency response
capabilities and build community resiliency. They prepare for and respond to natural
disasters as well as other emergencies affecting public health.
CUPERTINO DISASTER COUNCIL
Cupertino maintains a Disaster Council per state law. The details of the disaster
council are found in Cupertino Ordinance chapter 2.40.
OPERATIONAL AREA SIGNATORIES (OAS)
The Operational Area Signatories (OAS) is made up of emergency management
representatives from the various jurisdictions and special districts within the OA. The
OAS collaborates on emergency and incident management planning, logistics, and
training and exercise priorities to ensure greater OA consistency and interoperability,
as well as ensuring periodic information sharing and situational awareness.
SPECIAL DISTRICTS AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS.
Many special districts, utilities, and private companies also have incident management
systems for continuity of operations and to provide resources in support of an
emergency response. Community Based Organizations (CBOs), Non-Governmental
Organizations (NGOs), and private-sector organizations provide a range of services to
address needs that are wholly or partly unmet by local, state, and federal governments
during response and recovery operations.

DIRECTION, CONTROL, AND COORDINATION
The emergency response is coordinated under SEMS, which provides a flexible,
adaptable and expandable response organization to address all-hazards of varying
magnitude and complexity. An EOC is activated to support field operations and ensure
continuity of government when an incident threatens government services, requires
additional resources beyond the capacity of the responding agency, or when resources
exceed that which is available from within the jurisdiction as a whole. Communications
between the field response, DOCs, and the EOC are established when the EOC is
activated in support of field operations. The City’s EOC will establish communications
with the OA EOC and the OA EOC will communicate with the state through the REOC.
DIRECTION AND CONTROL INTERFACE
In a major emergency, the City EOC might be activated to coordinate and support the
overall response. Personnel that are part of a field level emergency response will utilize
ICS to manage and direct on-scene operations. Tactical management of responding
resources is always under the leadership of the on-site Incident Commander (IC) at the
Incident Command Post (ICP)..
OPERATIONAL AREA COORDINATION AND COMMUNICATION
As outlined in the City and OA Emergency Operations Plans, coordination and
communication should be established between the activated City EOC and the OA EOC.
When an incident occurs and the City activates the EOC and requests OA EOC support;
the county is required under SEMS to activate. This activation may be duty office
support, through a full EOC activation. In addition, if two or more cites or the county and
one or more cities proclaim an emergency the OA must activate. The OA then becomes
the focal point for information sharing and dissemination and supports or arbitrates
requests by cities/towns within the county.
EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER NOTIFICATION
Cupertino maintains a roster of pre-identified/appointed City EOC staff and will
notify those personnel to report to the City EOC.

will determine what positions of the City EOC will initially be staffed and requested
to report.
EXTERNAL COMMUNICATIONS AND COORDINATION
The City EOC will also coordinate with outside agencies such as special districts,
public utilities, private nonprofit organizations and/or private agencies. These
agencies will communicate directly with the City and may provide a representative to
the City EOC, as outlined in the EOC manual. The level of involvement of special
districts, public utilities, private nonprofit organizations, and private agencies will
vary considerably depending upon the type of incident.

INFORMATION COLLECTION, ANALYSIS, AND DISSEMINATION
A primary objective of the City EOC is the timely gathering of accurate, accessible, and
consistent information during an emergency and sharing vetted intelligence to ensure
coordinated timely emergency response and continuity of government. All City EOC
sections must maintain and display current status information so that other sections can
quickly comprehend what actions have been taken, what resources are available, and to
track damage status across the City. Situation reports create a common operating picture
and will be used to inform the operational objectives, priorities and strategies.
To ensure effective intelligence flow, emergency response agencies at all levels must
establish communications systems and protocols to organize, integrate, and coordinate
intelligence among the responding agencies.

CRISIS COMMUNICATIONS AND PUBLIC INFORMATION
Per NIMS, public information is coordinated and integrated across jurisdictions and
functional agencies; among Federal, State, local, and tribal partners; and with private-
sector entities and nongovernmental organizations. In order to effectively ensure timely
and accurate public information and alert and warning messages are disseminated
systems, structures, plans, policies, and equipment must be developed and identified to
accomplish these tasks.
PUBLIC AWARENESS AND EDUCATION
The public’s response to any emergency is based on their understanding of the nature
of the emergency, the potential hazards, the likely response of emergency services,
and knowledge of what individuals and groups with or without access and functional
needs, should do to increase their chances of survival and recovery. Individuals caring
for the elderly, children, or pets also need an increased understanding of their specific
situation as it pertains to disaster preparedness.
Office of Emergency Services makes preparedness information available to
community members to prepare themselves and their families for emergencies and
disasters.

ADMINISTRATION, FINANCE, AND LOGISTICS
FINANCE CONSIDERATIONS
To enhance the capability of the City to respond to incidents by providing financial
support and coordination to City incident management operations and coordinating the
recovery of costs as allowed by Federal and State law, the financial priorities during
incident management operations are:
Preserve life, property, and the environment
Provide continuity of financial support to the City when appropriate
Cooperate with the other sections of the City EOC
Document the City costs and recovery of those costs as allowable
Maintain a positive image for the City in its dealings with the public
The Finance/Administration function will operate under the following policies during a
qualifying incident/event as the situation dictates:
The Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS) and the National
Incident Management System (NIMS) will be followed
All existing City and departmental fiscal operating procedures will be adhered to
For incident/events that render the accounting systems either inaccessible or
unusable for any period of time, appropriate personnel will be on an operational
period, as determined by the EOC Director.
The Finance/Administration function’s primary responsibility is to maintain to the
greatest extent possible the financial systems necessary to keep the City functioning
during an incident or crisis of any size or type. The function also supervises the
negotiation and administration of vendor and supply contracts and procedures in
collaboration with the incident management procurement functions.
The Finance/Administration function acts in a support role in all incidents/events to
ensure that all required records are preserved for future use and Cal OES and FEMA
filing requirements through maintenance of proper and accurate documentation of all
actions taken.
MUTUAL AID
The foundation of California's emergency planning and response is a statewide mutual
aid system which is designed to ensure adequate resources, facilities and other support is
provided to jurisdictions whenever their own resources prove to be inadequate to cope
with a given situation. The basis for the system is the California Disaster and Civil
Defense Master Mutual Aid Agreement (MMAA).
RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

Office of Emergency Services
City of Cupertino
It is state policy that resource requests for emergency response and disaster repair and
restoration be entered into by the lowest level of government. When Cupertino’s local
resources are exhausted and additional resources are required, resource requests will
follow an established process for ordering, tracking, mobilizing, and demobilizing.

PLAN DEVELOPMENT AND MAINTENANCE
PLAN DEVELOPMENT
This City Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) was developed in collaboration with
stakeholders throughout the City in a whole community approach in compliance with
Comprehensive Preparedness Guide (CPG) 101: Developing and Maintaining
Emergency Operations Plans. Annexes to the EOP are further developed in a whole
community approach to augment this foundational document. Annexes are composed of
major functional activities, as well as specific hazard topics that present unique or
complex considerations that require more elaborate planning. A complete list of current
and additional planned annexes is provided in Appendix A.
PLAN MAINTENANCE
This EOP is reviewed, updated and redistributed on a one-year cycle. Every five years
the EOP will be revised and submitted to City Council for approval. This EOP may be
modified as a result of post-incident analyses and/or post exercise critiques. It may also
be modified if responsibilities, procedures, laws, rules, or regulations pertaining to
emergency or incident management and operations change. Those agencies having
assigned responsibilities under this EOP are obligated to inform OES when changes are
needed to reflect current process. OES will maintain records of revision to this EOP and
each of the annexes as they are reviewed and updated. All changes will be noted in the
Annual Review table at the beginning of this document.
PLAN C ONCURRENCE
Supporting agencies and organizations include all City departments who received a copy
of this Plan. These City departments are expected to comply with how the EOP describes
their tasks.
PLAN TRAINING AND EXERCISE
Training is an essential component of preparedness and greatly impacts the City’s ability to
respond to, and recover from, a critical incident.
The City actively manages training activities and allocates funding in relation to fluctuating
needs, personnel turnover, and course availability. In addition, the City consistently
prioritizes training that promotes staff understanding and familiarity with the following
concepts:

which they agree to assist one another upon request, by furnishing personnel and
equipment.
Natural Disaster – Any hurricane, tornado, storm, flood, high water, wind-driven water,
tidal wave, tsunami, earthquake, volcanic eruption, landslide, mudslide, snowstorm,
drought, fire, or other catastrophe which causes, or which may cause, substantial damage
or injury to civilian property or persons.
National Incident Management System (NIMS) – The National Incident Management
System (NIMS) provides a comprehensive approach to emergency management for all
hazards. NIMS integrates existing best practices into a consistent nationwide approach to
domestic emergency management that is applicable to all jurisdictional levels (public and
private) and across functional disciplines. NIMS is based on a balance of flexibility and
standardization. NIMS is flexible, and allows government and private entities at all levels
to work together to manage domestic emergencies, regardless of their cause, size,
location, or complexity. NIMS also provides a set of standardized organizational
structures.
National Response Framework – The National Response Framework (NRF) presents
the guiding principles that enable all response partners to prepare for and provide a
unified national response to disasters and emergencies—from the smallest incident to the
largest catastrophe. The Framework establishes a comprehensive, national, all-hazards
approach to domestic incident response. The Framework documents the key response
principles, roles, and structures that organize national response. It describes how
communities, States, the Federal Government, and private-sector and non-governmental
partners apply these principles for a coordinated, effective national response. And it
describes special circumstances where the Federal Government exercises a larger role,
including incidents where Federal interests are involved and catastrophic incidents where
a State would require significant support. It allows first responders, decision makers, and
supporting entities to provide a unified national response.
