D. CKFR 75th Anniversary/Discussion of Historical Documents – Chief

Weninger The Fire District has been searching for the initial documents leading to the creation of District 1, now Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue, that occurred in 1941. On our 75th year anniversary, coincidentally, the family (Terry Scheschy [Grandson], Jodene Martinson [Grandaughter], William Gosnell [Grandson] and Tyler Gosnell [Great-Grandson]) of the original Fire Chief of Fire District 1 (Chief Charles Snedicor) was in town from California for a high school reunion and came by to present to us for safe-keeping, a two-inch notebook containing original documents of our Fire District; such as the “Petition for the Formation of a Fire Protection District” and the agreement of payment to purchase a suitable small chemical fire truck for the purpose of forming a volunteer fire department. (Four (4) pages included in packet.)

E. Whaling Days Parade Update – PIO LiMarzi The Whaling Days Parade took place on July 29th. We paraded the new Sealegs, Tactical Deployment Unit (TDU), new medic units, and an engine. There were several volunteers who handed out approximately 1,000+ helmets. Thank you to those who helped out.

F. Kitsap County Fair & Stampede – Captain Goodwin

The Kitsap County Fair & Stampede will be held on August 23rd through the 27th. We have coverage for the rodeo, destruction derby, hotdog eating contest, and all special events. The reigning champ, Brandin Skovald, will be representing us for the pie eating contest again. Commissioner West added that Brandin’s $500.00 winning from last year was donated to the Medic One Foundation and helped purchase the $4,000.00 stretcher for the Gator Unit. Good luck Brandin!

G. Commissioner Reports

Commissioner Andrews: Was at Whaling Days on Sunday at the carnival and witnessed our bike crew tend to a gentleman who felt ill. Having the bike crew there looked good for our organization and by being there, was able to immediately assist.

Commissioner Erickson: Received a Chaplain call to Harrison hospital involving a death of a four (4) month old child. Calls like these take a toll on emergency responders, so just keep in mind the programs that are offered to support you in these times.

Commissioner Muhleman: 1) Kitsap County Fire Commissioners Association (KCFCA) meeting is scheduled for next Tuesday, August 22 after the Bangor Base Tour. If you would like to attend the tour, please be at the Keyport Naval Museum at 6:30 PM and the tour bus will leave 6:45 PM. 2) There is an article in the Bremerton Sun on Jay and Barb Lovato’s grand slam vacation. They hit all 30 major league baseball ballparks, along with 16 major league soccer stadiums on their cross-country trip.

MOTION by Commissioner Ken Erickson to approve the consent items, as presented.

SECOND by Commissioner Guy Earle. Motion PASSED unanimously by all

Commissioners present and voting.

4. DISCUSSION/ACTION ITEMS

A. Financial Report – Tim Maule

Before the report, discussion ensued regarding budget variances greater than $50,000. In the report, the YTD cash flow is due in large part to time differences in budget variances. Even though Commissioners are running unopposed in the upcoming elections, there will still be a cost of $38,000 to the District. Staff are expecting to make fund transfers in the near future. As discussed in the report, the Districts is trending at or under budget in several categories.

B. Update on 2018 Budget Process – Tim Maule

As of August 8, all of the budget inputs have been submitted to the finance team. Tim is reviewing each budget line item with individual departments. The budget cycle is currently on schedule. A draft budget will be presented to the Board by October 9. The Board jumped to Item 4-H – Economic Summit Meeting Presentation – Tim Maule in order to take Tim’s full report at once.

Page 2 of 3

C. Update on Marketing & Branding – Chief Oliver Chief Oliver presented an update on the District’s marketing and branding efforts. It could take around two (2) years to fully implement this plan, as Staff are trying to be fiscally responsible. The goal is for the District to be well marketed and branded by the next ballot.

D. Update on Staffing & Overtime – Chief Oliver

OT spending is trending higher for several reasons: the new CBA non-promotional language, the dissipated Officer Eligibility Lists (due to the hike in promotions), and the nineteen (19) new hires who are probationary, and not able to drive apparatus. In order to mitigate this, the Lieutenant Testing has moved up 6 months early which will now take place in September. Last week, Staff conducted the Apparatus Operator Academy where all of the probationary firefighters were trained and qualified to fill AO positions beginning September 1st. Discussion ensued about the Tactical Duty Unit (TDU).

E. Surplus Jointly Owned Lift – Chief Oliver

This item was removed from the agenda. F. Purchase Boat Tow Vehicle (Bond) – Chief Sorenson

Staff intends to buy a towing vehicle that is the same as the Battalion Chief truck. The purchase is in the Bond and would be purchased through State bid. Both vehicles will likely come due at the same time. The thought behind this is that the vehicles can be used as Staff vehicles later on.

G. New Organizational Chart – Lindsay Anderson One of the District’s annual goals was to perform an internal audit for Administrative Staff. As a result, HR has been working on new position descriptions and the latest drafts were presented to Staff. Two new positions are going to be proposed in the 2018 Budget.

H. Economic Summit Meeting Presentation – Tim Maule Tim reviewed discussion topics for the upcoming Economic Summit Meeting on September 18 (see packet attachment 4-H). Discussion ensued about prorationing, the 590 Rule, ballot measures, burn rates, and best practice working capital targets.

I. Confirm BOC Reps for Economic Summit Meetings – Chair West

Commissioners West and Muhleman are the Board Representatives for the Economic Summit, with Commissioner Andrews as the Alternate. Commissioner Andrews will be attending the September 18 meeting in place of Commissioner West.

7. Responsibility for Day-to-Day Operations / Policy Board. This agreement does

not establish a separate legal entity. The Lead Agency shall be the administrative

authority charged with managing the day-to-day operations conducted pursuant to this

procedures, establishing annual budgets, and acquiring, holding, and disposing of any

real or personal property purchased to implement this Agreement. In performing its

duties hereunder, the Policy Board shall meet at least annually, and more frequently as it

shall determine. The Policy Board shall determine the annual maintenance fee charged to

each Member Agency.

maintenance fee to the Lead Agency within sixty (60) days after receipt of such billing.

Initially the annual maintenance fee charged to each Member Agency shall be $2,500.00,

and shall be due during the second quarter of each year. The Policy Board, with cause,

shall also have the right at any time to replace CKFR as the Lead Agency with another

Member Agency who shall then assume the duties placed upon the Lead Agency

hereunder.

9. Governing Authority. The Agreement seeks to set forth the authority of the three

entities in charge of providing guidance, administration, and decisions under this

Agreement, to wit: the Kitsap County Fire Chief's Executive Board ("Policy Board"); the

Kitsap County Operations Chiefs; and the Lead Agency. In the event a dispute shall ever

arise as to which of these three entities is answerable to whom, or what authority one of

them possesses, all said disputes shall be resolved by the Kitsap County Fire Chief's

Executive Board ("Policy Board").

10. Member Agency Duties. On a continual basis, each Member Agency agrees to

provide a minimum of three personnel qualified to, or who will become qualified to, the

technician level in the rescue disciplines of trench rescue, rope rescue, confined space

rescue, and structural collapse rescue. At a minimum, all qualifications shall be based

on, and maintained, in accordance with NFPA 1006 entitled, "Rescue Technician

Professional Qualifications" (most current edition). Agencies that do not maintain the

minimum of three qualified and participating members will be invoiced for team

responses.

11. Standard Delivery of Services. Upon request being made by a representative of a

Member Agency ("requesting Member Agency") for any of the resources identified in

section 1 hereof from another Member Agency ("responding Member Agency"),

resources will be dispatched from the responding Member Agency in accordance with

the request, subject however to the response limitations set forth herein, to that

location within the requesting Member Agency's service area as requested.

12. Responding Agency Dispatch Conditions. The dispatch of equipment and

personnel by a responding Member Agency shall be subject to the following conditions:

A. Rendering of Aid Not Mandatory. The rendering of assistance under

this Agreement shall not be mandatory, but the Member Agency

receiving a request to respond shall inform the requesting Member

Agency as soon as reasonably possible, if for any reason the requested

service area requiring the said resources and/or personnel requested by

the requesting Member Agency.

B. Information Accompanying Request / Use of ICS. Any request for aid

hereunder shall include a statement of the amount and type of equipment

and personnel sought, and shall specify the location where the equipment

and personnel are to be dispatched. Provided, however, under all

circumstances, the amount and type of equipment, and the number and

type of personnel to be furnished, shall be determined by the responding

Member Agency's representative.

Each Member Agency shall use the Incident Command System ("ICS")

for all mutual and automatic responses, and shall establish and maintain

dispatch run cards personal to that Member Agency at Kitsap 911 to

reflect the response obligations established in this Agreement.

C. Reporting Requirements at Incident. The responding Member Agency

shall report to the officer in charge of the requesting Member Agency at

the location where the equipment and personnel are dispatched, and shall

be subject to the orders of that official. Provided, however, the officer in

charge of a responding Member Agency may, in the exercise of his/her

best judgment and discretion, refuse to commit personnel, equipment, or

both, to a position or task that he/she determines possesses the reasonable

potential to unreasonably imperil his/her Fire Department's personnel

and/or equipment.

D. Requesting Agency Incident Release. A responding Member Agency

shall be released by the requesting Member Agency when: its services

are no longer reasonably required; or when the responding Member

Agency must respond into its own service area.

member municipal agencies. Provided, however, such services shall only be provided,

and technical rescue personnel deployed, to such municipal agencies having an

agreement in effect with the Lead Agency for such services, except as hereinafter

permitted. Non-member municipal agencies shall be charged reasonable fees and

charges in accordance with the most current schedule of charges adopted by the

Washington Fire Chiefs Association for such rescue services. All funds received for

services rendered to non-member agencies shall be paid to the Member Agency(s)

performing the said services. Each Member Agency shall determine its willingness and

level of commitment to make its equipment and personnel available to a non-member

municipal agency.

Each Member Agency also reserves the right to enter into a separate technical rescue

agreement with a non-member agency so long as its services provided to such non-

member agency do not take precedence over the exchange of services and equipment

among Member Agencies provided herein.

15. Indemnification, Limitation of Liability, and Insurance. Each Member

Agency shall, at all times, be solely and exclusively responsible for the acts or failure

to act of its personnel that occur or arise in any way out of the performance of this

LEVY RATE LIMITS AN OVERVIEW OF PRORATIONING AND APPLICATION HIERARCHY

Source: “Why is Property Tax So Complicated” by Tracey Dunlap / MRSC, February 02, 2015

The Property Tax Levies Operations Manual provides a comprehensive list of the individual levy types and regular levy rate limits. In addition to the individual rate limits by levy type, there is an individual statutory limit that was imposed initially through the initiative process (Initiative 747) and subsequently by the State Legislature (RCW 84.55) in 2007 after the initiative was found unconstitutional.

In a nutshell, it limits the increase in the dollar amount of the regular levy to one percent of the prior year’s levy (for cities less than 10,000) or the lesser of one percent or the implicit price deflator (IPD) for larger agencies. New construction value and other adjustments are added after the application of the one percent.

There are two main aggregate limits that apply to property taxes, one of which is statutory and the other constitutional.

The statutory limit applies to most local regular levies, which taken together, cannot exceed $5.90 per $1,000 of assessed valuation. It is a shorter list to provide [than] the list of those not subject to this limit (State, Ports, PUD, EMS, Affordable Housing, Conservation Futures, County Ferry Districts, Criminal Justice, and County Transit).

What this limit means is that if the sum of the applicable levies exceeds $5.90, the taxes of the “junior” taxing districts will be reduced based on the hierarchy in the table on the following page. Again, the list of “senior” taxing districts is shorter at State, County, City/Town, County Road, Port, PUD; everything else is junior. Note that the proration as it relates to Metropolitan Park Districts (MPD) is especially complex; more information can be found at MRSC’s website.

The constitutional limit adopted in 1972 limits the amount of property taxes that may be imposed on an individual parcel without voter approval to one percent of its true and fair value. The tax proration order if the aggregate is greater than one percent is more complex as it applies to all taxing authorities, except Port and PUD district levies, including those subject to the $5.90 limit.

The table that follows summarizes the hierarchy for applying the limits.

(*Represents the portion subject to the 1% limit).

If CKFR were to face prorationing over the $5.90 aggregate limit, RCW 84.52.125 indicates that a fire district may protect its tax levy by imposing up to $0.25 per thousand of assessed value of the tax levies authorized under the regular, and GO bond levies outside of the $5.90. This is $0.25 is equivalent to approximately $1.94 million or 18% of our regular levy amount based on the 2017 levy rate.
