1 EMERGENCY AND DISASTER PREPAREDNESS OUTLINE 1. Introduction. Following a disaster, city government is first level of response. Main objective is to protect life and property. Powers and immunities which apply in an emergency are dependent upon a declaration of emergency. This outline and accompanying materials provide a guide for city attorneys to customize and retain for use in emergency situations. 2. Due Process. Government may damage private property without compensating the owner as long as damage is inflicted to prevent impending danger to public health or safety. (Holtz v. Superior Court, 3 Cal. 3d 296, 305, 90 (1970)). But, when there is triable issue of fact whether emergency exists and whether due process was provided, owners may state claim for inverse condemnation when city demolishes building. (Rose v. City of Coalinga, 190 Cal.App.3d 1627, 236 (1987)). 3. Statutory Powers. To meet due process requirements, provision for hearings should be written into the local emergency plan and local ordinances. Use of the immediate vacation order available under the Uniform Code for the Abatement of Dangerous Buildings may be considered as an alternative to immediate demolition since hearing procedures contained in the uniform code. (See Attachment I of Handbook) a. State Constitution. Cities authorized to provide aid or assistance for clearing debris, wreckage or natural materials on private property, as a result of a disaster or emergency if: 1. City council finds it to be in the public interest; 2. Major disaster or emergency declared by the President of the United States; 3. City indemnified by the recipient of the aid for any claims arising out of rendering the aid; and 4. Cost of the aid or assistance eligible for federal reimbursement. Cal. Const. Art. XVI, 6 1

In no event shall a review take place more than 21 days after the previous review, or if the body meets weekly, it shall review the need for continuing the local emergency at least every 14 days until the emergency is terminated. (See Attachments D, E, F, & G of Handbook.) b. State Aid. Extraordinary services to carry out mutual aid agreements constitute a charge against the state, when approved by the governor. Cal.
