TO: Board of Commissioners
Philip Morley, County Administrator
FROM: David Alvarez, Chief Civil DPA
DATE: February 2, 2015
RE: Annexation of unprotected property into Clallam Cty. FPD No. 1
STATEMENT OF ISSUE:
Two streets in the West End of Jefferson County are currently not within the boundary and
jurisdiction of any Fire Protection District or "FPD." Persons residing on these two roads (Dowans
Creek Rd. and Undie Rd.) have successfully completed the petition method under Ch. 52.04 RCW
to be annexed into the nearest FPD which is Clallam County FPD No. 1. The petitioners have met
the numerical requirements for annexation by petition and the Board of Commissioners for Clallam
County FPD No. 1 has agreed, via their Resolution 92014 -049, to accept the annexed territory.
All that remains to be done, per RCW 52.04.011(3), is for the Jefferson County Board of County
Commissioners in their legislative capacity to "order" the incorporation of the territory subject to
the petition "into the existing fire protection district."
The attached Resolution formalizes the incorporation of the territory subject to the petition into the
jurisdiction of the existing Clallam County FPD No. 1.
ANALYSIS:
Given the concurrence of the affected citizens and the Commission of Clallam FPD No. 1 that such
an annexation should occur, the County Commission should implement this final step to annexation.
FISCAL IMPACT: None.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the attached Resolution
