Summary

An ESD representative said their board would continue contractual fire‑marshal services at the current rate; the court agreed to set the fire marshal contract at $360,000 for a one‑year trial, move the secretary position to the correct fund, zero other fire marshal budget lines and amend contracts accordingly (motion carried 4‑0‑1).

An ESD representative appearing before the court said their board is amenable to continuing an interlocal fire marshal arrangement at the county’s current rate. The representative said the board expects the county could contract ESD 1 for fire marshal services at about $360,000 for the year.

Commissioners directed staff to zero out existing fire marshal budget lines (except to move the secretary position to the correct fund), add a $360,000 contract‑services line to represent the ESD 1 agreement and prepare an amended contract. The court approved the one‑year trial arrangement (motion carried 4‑0‑1) and staff will present contract amendments for the next regular court meeting.
