ii. Currently all Monday night volunteer drills are shared between both departments, with multiple coordinated training classes being conducted to increase the value of the training and reduce class size. d. Closer integration with administrative and operational issues such as disaster planning and emergency operations coordination. Examples include: i. In 2011 both city’s successfully conducted a joint EOC operation during the May 2011 Washington County disaster drill. ii. Completion of a joint Natural Hazards Mitigation plan which reduced both Cities’ cost and allows both Cities’s to benefit from this FEMA required document. iii. iv. Successful submission of joint grant documents to fund enhancements in our EOC trailer. Successful submission of a Fire Department Strategic Plan for both departments. v. Completion of a joint Emergency Operations Plan. 2. Closer operational and administrative ties will result in more cost effective, efficient and safe operations in high risk environments. For example: a. Both agencies share a cardiac monitor calibration tool, reducing the cost to purchase this to both agencies. b. Both agencies now share the services of a single supervising physician, who has provided a substantial increase in training. c. The departments coordinated hose testing this year resulting in a substantial discount to both agencies. d. The departments are coordinating required SCBA testing resulting in decreased costs to both agencies. e. Training standards and procedures can be standardized across both agencies resulting in more streamlined and effective interventions. f. Since September 2011, both agencies have operated seamlessly on three major events, which include the third alarm wildland fire on Hergert Road, the third alarm Prime Time Restaurant fire, and the first alarm fire at the Best Western Hotel. 3. Reduced costs to Cornelius and offered revenue to Forest Grove. a. The City of Cornelius generated over $100,000 in savings. b. The City of Forest Grove generated approximately $40,000 in revenue. c. Both agencies generated approximately $35,000-$40,000 in additional savings through shared purchases and combined operational procedures.
d. Examples of current projects include shared recruitment and retention of volunteers and interns. For example: i. Currently several volunteer firefighters volunteer for both departments, which has provided increased flexibility, experience, volunteer fulfillment, and operational efficiency. 4. Reduced duplication of services and streamlines operations by coordinating the delivery of fire, EMS and rescue service and limiting administrative overhead. 5. Both cities are facing challenging economic times while trying to maintain services. Better interdepartmental cooperation has enhanced our ability to provide service. The services provided under this agreement include leadership, supervision, budgeting, mentoring and representation. The Forest Grove Fire Chief attends Cornelius City Council and Cornelius Rural Fire District meetings as needed, and represents Cornelius at Washington County Fire Defense Board and other fire service meetings. Recommendation: Staff recommends the City Council approve the attached resolution authorizing the City Manager to modify the term of the existing Intergovernmental Agreement, between the City of Forest Grove and City of Cornelius for Fire Administrative Services. Proposed Motion: Approval through Consent Agenda. Exhibit: IGA-Forest Grove-Cornelius Fire Administrative Services.
