EQUITY IMPACT STATEMENT  
The County of San Diego (County) is committed to promoting a culture of equity, belonging,  
and racial justice. We serve all communities, including Black, Indigenous, people of Color,  
LGBTQIA+, people with disabilities, low-income individuals, the young, the elderly,  
immigrants, refugees, and those who have faced inequality.  
The Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) Recommended Operational Plan aims to allocate  
resources to address inequities in County programs and services. This plan is based on  
community input, data analysis identifying disparities, and meaningful assessment of outcome  
indicators.  
In 2021, the County introduced a Budget Equity Assessment Tool. This tool helps County  
departments prioritize services and allocate resources with equity in mind. Each year,  
departments must identify equity components to evaluate budget changes that impact their ability  
to deliver services and support their goals. The questions in this tool ensure that the County  
applies an equity lens when developing the budget.  
SUSTAINABILITY IMPACT STATEMENT  
The County of San Diego (County) is working towards a sustainable future for everyone. Our  
strategic plan guides our activities to ensure sustainability in the region's economy, climate,  
environment, and communities. We aim to strengthen communities by pursuing legislative  
policies and collaborating with stakeholders to enhance services that help residents become  
self-sufficient, increase economic sustainability, and reduce poverty.  
County departments contribute by implementing their own sustainability plans, which reflect  
their priorities and inform financial planning and decision-making. This ongoing effort helps  
each department increase the overall sustainability of their operations. These collective efforts  
strengthen communities, ensure accountability, and protect public resources by aligning  
available resources through services and initiatives.  
The proposed budgetary plans for the Fiscal Years 2026-27 in the Chief Administrative Officer  
Recommended Operational Plan support the County's Strategic Initiative of Sustainability. This  
aligns our resources with services while maintaining fiscal stability and ensuring long-term  
solvency.  
FISCAL IMPACT  
The recommended action provides spending authority of $46,825,203 for the San Diego County  
Fire Protection District for Fiscal Year 2026-27.
