Councilmen Flechsig, Lea and Craig voting NO. MOTION CARRIED Public Safety Committee - Chairman Anderson At the continued meeting of May 11, 1977, the committee considered the Auburn- Federal Way Pa~'amedic Provider Program proposal. Chairman Anderson opened the floor to questions on the proposal and called on those people in the audience who are involved in the program to help answer them. Bud rhorsen, Administrator of the proposed provider group explained that the proposed program is a better one than previously developed and is a stepping stone to paramedic programs for I each of Auburn and Federal Way. Seven p. aramedics would be hired to provide service 7 days a week, 24 hours a day, and they would be supplemented by a fire fighter fro each area who would be a d~iver. If the program is approved, it would begin development in October, 1977, and would be in service by July, 1978. This is the last area of King County to receive this type of service, and it is felt that the citizens are desirous of this service. The funding received from King County plus the donations of ci tizens will put the program over the top. Chairman Anderson introduced King County Councilman Paul Barden and presented a petition signed by a broad. spectrum of local citizens and business concerns. Councilman Flechsig asked Mr. Barden if the $1.50 per person contribution by King County would be enough to support the program next year and the following year. Mr. Barden recognized that this amount would not be enough to keep up wi th infla- ~ion, but emphasized that the King County Council is strongly committed to this program regardless of increased costs wbich it cannot be sure of. Councilman F1echsig asked if the program would cease if King County did not continue funding it, and Barden felt this was very unlikely. Chairman Anderson asked Bud Thorsen about the programl;s relationship to Valley Com, and whether this would cost Auburn more money. Mr. Thorsen explained that the paramedic program would consider going into Valley Com at the appropriate time if Valley Com would allow them in, and that he can't see that it would cause any additional cost to Auburn. Councilman Craig stated his concerns about communications between the provider group and Auburn, since only Auburn would be on Valley Com, and about the phrase on pagel 5 of the proposal about members bearing the costs of moderate overruns. Bud Thorse pointed out that District #39 would bear most of the cost of any overrun and Mr. Barden added that the agreement allows for any member to leave the program after a 30-day notice is given, should Auburn at any time feel that the overrun oosts were unreasonable. Mr. Thorsen also commented that the provider group will be on the same radio frequency as Valley Com. Councilman Craig asked if the one aid car which Auburn commits to the program would be lost to King County, should Auburn decide to pullout later, and Mr. Thorsen answered no. Councilman Roegner commented that the clause about members bearing overrun costs was probably a standard contract protection for King County and that Auburn would probably want that same protection if it were the program sponsor. He added that the communi ty has expressed its desire and support for this program, and urged that the council support it while it could still be provided wi thout cost to Auburn. Councilmen Flechsig mentioned that any overtime paid to cover for the fire fighter involved in the program is certainly a cost to Auburn. Chairman Anderson admi tted that the program will cost Auburn one-third of one fire fighter's time and salary, but that Auburn's involvement wi th Valley Com has freed one fire fighter from dispatch work to regular duty, and the program will cost only one-third of his time. Councilman Flechsig commented that in accordance wi th this program, he could not support any request for addi tional jfire fighter personnel in the near future. In response to Councilman Lea's stated concern about the program's response time I to A. uburI?, Mr. Thor. sen explained that Auburn would still be using its aid cars for the initial response within the necessary 4 minutes response time, and that the paramedic cars would be able to reach any area in Auburn wi thin 10 minutes, but that the paramedic cars would only respond to necessary calls and would not be the initial response. Further in response to Councilman Lea's question, Mr. Thorsen explained that when an Auburn aid car is out of service, it will be replaced by an aid car from another area until it is again ready for service. Chairman Anderson added that the Auburn minipumper is now equipped for EMT service and that another vehicle is in the process of being equipped for EMT. Councilman Craig stated he is still concerned wi th the program being too open-ended as costs go, that the emotional issue seemed to override any financial considerations. -4- I c.;; ~- ~ C' c.:: C.L I I jC7S 1-1UBURN, WASHINGTON MONDAY MAY 16, 19":7'1 Dick Fidler of Auburn, stated that the costs of the program were coming from districts other than Auburn. Councilman Lea suggested that a decision be held in abeyance until the executive meeting of next Monday, and that staff members be available at that time to answer some of the questions brought up here. Councilman Anderson disagreed and felt that any questions ttould be answered now, so that the council could take action and settle the question of supporting the program or not. It was, moved by l).nderson, seconded by Roegner; to approve the Auburn-Federal Way Paramedic prov1:der Program as wri tten, and instruct Mayor Kersey to sign on behalf of the City of Auburn. Councilman Craig asserted that he would also like another meeting to further define costs, that he couldn't support the program as it is, and that it would be better to go into the program unanimously, after all these questions were answered to everyone's satisfaction. Chairman Anderson said he was concerned that a delay might mean losing a chance at the program. Councilman Flechsig also suggested that another meeting be held, a continuance to next Monday night, and that Auburn's fire chief and District #39's fire chief be invited to join in a workshop session. Mayor Kersey asked Jill Marsden, King County coordinator for the program, what a delay at this time would mean. She indicated it would put off any action by King County until at least July, and that time is needed to set up the program and train the personnel. Councilman Lea asked for a fi ve minute recess. After the recess Mayor Kersey called for a vote on the motion. ROLL CALL VOTE: Councilman Anderson, F1echsig, Lea, Roegner, Kitchell voting YES. Counc1lrren Craig and J..arson voting NO. MOTION CARRIED Finance Committee - Chairman Flechsig It was moved by F1echsig, seconded by Lea to not accept any bid on the fire engine at this time, and to continue wi th the program of putting $25,000 per year in the Fire Cumulative Reserve Fund, so that there will be enough money in two or three years to purchase a new fire engine. It was explained that this action would allow consideration of the bids at a later date, after it is determined whether the budget can be balanced, and this cost could be afforded. ROLL CALL VOTE: All councilmen voting YES. MOTION CARRIED It was moved by Flechsig, seconded by Craig, that the voucher approval list for the period April 25 through May 8, 1977, in the amount of $1,147,817.85, and the payroll for the period April 25 through May 8 in the amount of $222,409.73 be approved.
