JEFFERSON COUNTY
BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
TO: Board of County Commissioners
Philip Morley, County Administrator
FROM: Leslie Locke, Executive Assistant
DATE: June 6, 2016
SUBJECT: RESOLUTION NO. re: Annexation of Unprotected Land Within Jefferson
County into the Jurisdiction and Boundaries of Jefferson County Fire Protection
District No. 1 (dba East Jefferson Fire and Rescue)
STATEMENT OF ISSUE:
Ten (10) parcels located in East Jefferson County are currently not within the boundary and jurisdiction of
any Fire Protection District or "FPD." A petition signed by a property owner has successfully completed the
petition method under Ch. 52.04 RCW to be annexed into the nearest FPD which is Jefferson County Fire
Protection District No. 1 (dba East Jefferson Fire and Rescue). The petitioner has met the numerical
requirements for annexation by petition and the Board of Commissioners for the Jefferson County FPD No.
has agreed, via their Resolution No. 16-04, to accept the annexed territory.
All that remains to be done, per RCW 52.04.011(3), is for the Jefferson County Board of 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 Jefferson County FPD No. 1 (dba East Jefferson Fire and Rescue).
ANALYSIS:
Given the concurrence of the affected citizens and the Commission of Jefferson County FPD No. 1 that such
an annexation should occur, the County Commission should implement this final step to annexation.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the attached Resolution.
