To: Regional Fire Authority Annexation Steering Committee
From: Moira Carr Bradshaw
Date: November 16, 2015
Subject: Completion of Committee's Tasks
The Committee is charged with making a recommendation of yes or no. The months of review
and discussion provide you with the most insight and knowledge about the impacts of this
decision. If this proposal proceeds, the voters will ultimately decide, but your thoughts and
ideas will be part of that community discussion.
Kent Fire Department RFA Plan — Tukwila Amendment
Attached is the draft Plan — Tukwila Amendment. There are structural changes to the document
that resulted in a lot of strikeout and underline toward the last sections of the Plan, but I believe it
is readable. A clean version is attached separately if you prefer that version.
Sections, 7, 8, and 9 (pages 27 -44) will be the focus of presentation/discussion at Wednesday's
meeting. The Committee reviewed Sections 1 -6 at your August meeting; although,
Councilmember Seal asked for some additional thoughts about the Needs Statement in Section 1.
Recommendation
Attached is a DRAFT Recommendation. We want you to have an opportunity to articulate and
include any additional thoughts. The following questions are included to spark those ideas. In
order to help with the decision, please consider the following three questions:
1. If you are thinking about recommending yes, is there something that would change it to
no?
2. If you are thinking about recommending no, is there something that would change it to a
yes?
3. Other than the pros and cons that are listed in the recommendation, is there anything else
that the Mayor or City Council should know about this issue?
