About

Joint Powers Authority (JPA)

In 1996, a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) was formed between the cities of Livermore and Pleasanton. This partnership promotes more efficient administration and effective delivery of life-safety services without the additional overhead of a completely independent JPA agency. Under this model, the Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department JPA includes a JPA Governing Board, which is a subcommittee of both City Councils to understand fire and emergency medical service issues in depth. In this joint consensus partnership, both cities have equal influence.
