The Ross Town Council voted 4–1 to direct the town manager to execute a lease and operating agreement with the Ross Valley Paramedic Authority for a new paramedic facility at 33 Sir Francis Drake Boulevard and to adopt Resolution No. 2547. Council and staff discussed lease terms including a pre-occupancy period, an 8-year post-occupancy term, $75,000 annual rent escalating 2.5% yearly, utility cost-sharing, termination triggers tied to construction bid caps and parcel-tax outcomes, and a carve-out for insurer-driven litigation actions.
