REP 16-362 1A.Administrative Sharing contract w/ECFRInformational ReportInterlocal Agreement for Fire Chief Administrative and Management Services with East County Fire and Rescue (ECFR) Details: Since 2015, officials from the City of Camas and ECFR have been engaged in discussions about a possible administrative merger between the two agencies whereas the Camas Fire Chief would also act in the capacity of Fire Chief for ECFR. The previous Interlocal Agreement attempt a few months ago was not successful for various reasons. It is believed that this new proposal will be agreeable and beneficial to both organizations. Elected officials from ECFR were present at this meeting to participate in the discussion. Presenter: Nick Swinhart, Fire Chief and Pete Capell, City Administrator   Action details Video Video
REP 16-363 1A.List fire department items as surplusInformational ReportFire Department Request to List Obsolete Radios as Surplus Details: In 2015, the Camas Washougal Fire Department (CWFD), along with all other county fire departments, replaced staff's mobile and portable radios so that the equipment would be compatible with the new system Clark Regional Emergency Services Agency (CRESA) acquired. With this new system in place and with all CWFD radios now integrated into this new system, the department has approximately 60 outdated and obsolete mobile and portable radios that can no longer be used. These radios were recently "wiped" by CRESA technicians and can now be listed as surplus and disposed of. Staff recommended that Council declare the radios as surplus and authorize the equipment to be sold through a service like Ebay, as had been done with previous surplus items.
