BACKGROUND:

The City of Coconut Creek and the Sheriff of Broward County (BSO) desire to enter into a mutually-beneficial Interlocal Agreement (ILA) for the delivery of mutual and automatic aid for fire-rescue services.

DISCUSSION:

The City of Coconut Creek and BSO agree to provide emergency mutual assistance and automatic aid to each other for Fire Suppression, Emergency Medical Services, Hazardous Material Response, and Technical Rescue, within the terms and conditions set forth by this ILA.  The mutual assistance/automatic aid provided for by this ILA shall extend to areas served by the parties through service agreements.  Emergency mutual assistance/automatic aid will be given when properly requested unless the party from whom assistance is requested determines in accordance with the terms of the ILA that it is unable to respond.

This ILA will commence upon approval by both parties and will end on September 30, 2023, with one (1) year automatic renewals unless a party notifies the other in writing, not later than sixty days (60) days prior to the expiration of the ILA, or any renewal term of this ILA, of its intent not to renew. The City Manager will have the authority to renew the ILA under the same terms and conditions upon its expiration.

Staff recommends approval of this resolution.
