| 2 | B. | Camas Public Library - Remain Independent or Annex into FVRL | Informational Report | The Camas Public Library - Remain Independent or Annex into Fort Vancouver Regional Library
Details: David Zavortink, the former Library Director, retired last year after over twenty years of service. Camas is the only city in Clark County that is not part of Fort Vancouver Regional Library (FVRL). With an upcoming change in leadership, staff believed it was appropriate to explore the City's options, including possibly annexing into FVRL. The presentation provided an overview of the administrative process, financial implications, advantages and disadvantages. Staff explored this at a cursory level with the intent that more detailed analysis would be performed if the Library Board of Trustees and City Council expressed interest in possible annexation.

| 2 | F. | Fire Impact Fee Resolution | Informational Report | Fire Impact Fee Resolution
Details: In 2002, City Council waived Fire Impact Fees for homes and duplexes constructed with fire sprinklers. The incentive was effective and Camas has one of the best percentages in the state of new homes with fire sprinklers. Today over 90% of the new homes are required to install fire sprinklers due to fire codes regarding road width, ingress, egress or fire hydrant proximity. The remaining 10% of these new homes would still have the incentive of waiving Fire Impact Fees, if they install a fire sprinkler system. Approximately 20% of the City's emergency call volume is related to fire, the rest are medical responses. The 90% homes that are required to install fire sprinklers will still have 20% of the fee waived in accordance to state statute. The impact fee is currently $0.20 per square foot, so a house that is required to install fire sprinklers would pay $0.16 per square feet. The City would have collected $290,000 over the past three years if this had been in place. The new fees will go toward new or replacement apparatus or a new station in the | | |
