Public Safety Commission approves 2026 work plan with cardiac‑arrest readiness, GIS and consultant follow‑up
Summary
The commission approved its 2026 work plan with three additions: a 'Heart Safe Communities' cardiac-arrest readiness initiative, GIS integration under emergency preparedness, and a review of the Rafdelis consultant recommendations for the police department; the motion passed by roll call.
The South Pasadena Public Safety Commission voted on March 24 to approve its 2026 work plan with three requested additions. Commissioners added a Heart Safe Communities initiative focused on cardiac arrest readiness and public education, asked staff to include GIS work under the emergency‑preparedness item (for mapping AEDs and other assets), and directed staff to revisit recommendations from the Rafdelis consultant report that addressed police organizational benchmarks.
Commissioners discussed whether the Heart Safe Communities item should be a separate line in the work plan (Commissioner Senko asked for it to be distinct); staff recommended compiling recommended edits and moving to adopt the calendar as amended. Commissioner G asked that the GIS matters be included in the September emergency preparedness discussion and staff confirmed they will bring a report; staff also committed to placing the Rafdelis report in the May packet for commission review.
A motion to approve the plan as amended passed by roll call with aye votes from present commissioners. The youth commissioner was confirmed as a nonvoting member.
