further these trends toward cooperation and consolidation of <br />functions. <br />C. The original parties to this Master Interlocal Agreement <br />perceive a need for a master agreement to set forth the <br />common, standard, and repetitive provisions rather than have <br />these common terms and conditions included in most, if not <br />all, of the interlocal agreements. <br />D. The interlocal agreements which shall be appended hereto as <br />exhibits could be independent, "stand- alone" contracts <br />between the parties, but the parties would prefer to keep <br />such interlocal agreements simple and short, containing only <br />the substantive provisions relevant to the circumstances at <br />hand, while incorporating by reference the standard terms and <br />provisions of this Agreement by making each interlocal <br />agreement an exhibit to this Master Interlocal Agreement. <br />3. AUTHORITY. <br />Authority for this Agreement is contained for all applicable state <br />agencies, political subdivisions, special purpose districts and <br />municipal corporations in the State of Washington by RCW 39.34, <br />the Interlocal Cooperation Act. With respect to regional fire <br />protection service authorities, additional authority is contained <br />in RCW 52.26.090. Additional authority is contained in RCW <br />52.12.021 and RCW 52.12.031, with respect to the fire protection <br />districts. With respect to water districts, additional authority <br />is contained within Title 57 RCW. With respect to cities, <br />additional authority for such contracts is contained within RCW <br />35, and Title 35A for optional municipal code cities. Authority <br />for such agreements by the County is contained within Title 36 <br />RCW. <br />4. PURPOSE AND INTENT. <br />The purpose of the original parties to this Master Interlocal <br />Agreement and any parties added later shall be to save costs and <br />expenses, as well as time, by avoiding redundancy and repetitive <br />terms and provisions in various interlocal agreements when the <br />common terms and provisions of this Master Interlocal Agreement <br />are already in effect. The intent of the parties is to create a <br />master interlocal agreement that can include the parties' general <br />agreement as to many standard terms and provisions without <br />limiting the parties' flexibility to execute an interlocal <br />agreement containing substantive provisions when the circumstances <br />arise. Whenever a new subject for cooperation, consolidation, or <br />mutual and joint action requires an interlocal agreement, the <br />parties may execute one without undue expense or needless waste or <br />time. <br />June 5, 2012 17:17:41 2 <br />
