Request for approval of an interlocal agreement with the City of Tomball, Texas to provide medical countermeasures from the strategic national stockpile in the event of a biological or radioactive attack.
end
Background and Discussion:
Harris County desires to collaborate with the City of Tomball to enhance Harris County’s ability to respond to a catastrophic incident or other communicable threat. Harris County and the City of Tomball desire to enter into an agreement for a mass prophylaxis closed point of dispensing (“Closed Pod”) to dispense medications and supplies to identified City of Tomball employees, contractors, and their immediate family members. Harris County finds that an agreement with the City of Tomball for a Closed Pod serves a public purpose of Harris County.
Expected Impact:
It is expected that if the Strategic National Stockpile were needed to be deployed within Harris County, providing a closed POD setting to our critical 9-1-1 providers and their immediate family members will ensure the continuity of operations for the county to meet the demands of the public during a time of crisis.
Alternative Options:
There currently are no other means or plans from the local, state or federal level to distribute the Strategic National Stockpile to first responders except through the current plans
