Your Cal OES Recovery IA representative is: Angela Thomas Angela.Thomas@CalOES.ca.gov (916) 539-8650 While the City of Palm Desert’s Proclamation of Local Emergency does not request state financial assistance via the California Disaster Assistance Act (CDAA) for Tropical Storm Hilary, Cal OES is aware the City of Palm Desert may be currently assessing the costs and damages caused by the incident and may determine in the coming days/weeks the event is of such severity and magnitude to be beyond its capabilities to respond and recover. Should the City of Palm Desert determine this event is beyond its capabilities to respond to and recover from, and request CDAA funding, Cal OES will begin a thorough validation and assessment of the disaster information provided in the Initial Damage Estimate (IDE) submitted. Please refer to the attached Proclamation and CDAA Fact Sheet for a list of factors considered when Cal OES evaluates a request for CDAA funding. In order for Cal OES to validate the City of Palm Desert’s request in a timely manner, it is imperative an IDE be provided when the request for CDAA funding is submitted. Please ensure your completed IDE is uploaded into CalEOC. If you do not have access to CalEOC, please work with your Cal OES regional operations representative to upload the information: Jose Ortega Jose.Ortega@caloes.ca.gov (916) 417-3841 Please note pursuant to California Government Code Section 8630(b), whenever a local emergency is proclaimed by an official designated by ordinance, the local emergency shall not remain in effect for a period in excess of seven days unless it has been ratified by the governing body.
