City Of Alameda

City of Alameda, a U.S. local government municipality headquartered in Alameda, California, operates as a prime recipient of federal grants and as a purchaser of federal services and infrastructure support, delivering local public services including emergency response, police operations, utilities administration, and stormwater management. The city acts primarily as a prime grant recipient (92% of recent awards) rather than as a federal contractor, with subsidiary entities including the City of Alameda Community and the Alameda Bureau of Electricity Improvement Corporation. Federal awards to the city carry no set-aside designations; as a local government entity, Alameda competes in full-and-open federal grant and service-purchase solicitations.

The city's federal footprint is fragmented across multiple grantor agencies and a small volume of service-purchase orders. Prime federal grant work centers on emergency management, law enforcement, and environmental infrastructure. Representative awards include a $964 thousand Assistance to Firefighters Grant (CFDA 97.044) from FEMA for personal protective equipment, emergency response vehicles, and first-responder training and wellness programs (performance through August 2026); a Supporting Law Enforcement Seeking Accreditation grant from the Community Oriented Policing Program for police auditor support, training, and CALEA accreditation (performance through June 2027); a $1.472 million EPA Region 9 grant for green stormwater bioretention areas at three roundabout intersections adjacent to San Francisco Bay as part of the Central Avenue Safety Improvement (performance through October 2026); and a Bureau of Justice Assistance grant supporting the Alameda Care Team, a 24/7 alternative responder model for nonviolent mental health crisis calls. The city also receives small fixed-price purchase orders from the Department of Transportation Maritime Administration and the Department of the Navy for Alameda Point traffic mitigation fees assessed against federal facilities located within the city's jurisdiction — four awards totaling $74 thousand to the Maritime Administration and nine awards totaling $115 thousand to the Navy between 2022 and 2026.

Across 102 total awards (prime and sub combined), Alameda serves 15 distinct federal customer agencies. The top five customer agencies by award count account for 69% of recent awards, led by GSA Public Buildings Service (40 awards), followed by FEMA (10 awards), the Navy (9 awards), FEMA Headquarters Financial Assistance (7 awards), and the Maritime Administration (4 awards). The combined potential value of all recent awards is $406 thousand, though obligated dollars across all awards total $37.9 million — a significant variance indicating that older awards in the source dataset carry larger historical value. The city receives sub-awards from the California Board of State and Community Corrections, the Office of Emergency Services, the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, the Association of Bay Area Governments, and the California Office of Traffic Safety under grant programs addressing domestic violence victim advocacy, emergency sheltering, coastal resilience, and traffic safety. Three awards with combined potential value $27 thousand face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months.
