Emereency Services Council re: Advanced Life Support: Bob Wilson, Chairman for the Jefferson County Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Council, introduced himself and Dr. Sydney Schneidman who is the Medical Program Director for EMS services in the County. He explained that Jefferson County is the only County in western Washington that doesn't have Advanced Life Support (ALS) available is VOL 19 rM; 957 Commissioners' Meeting Minutes: Week of August 16, 1993 Page: 4 some form countywide. The EMS Council is asking that the Commissioners put an ALS system in place in the County. A countywide EMS levy could be used to finance the start up costs for this program. Dr. Schneidman reported that because of the call volume in the County, having each Fire District hire their own paramedic is not practical. There are numerous models for providing this service. One proposal would be to have a paramedic station at the SRI04 and SR18 intersection with a paramedic available around the clock to respond to calls from any Fire District. The County Fire District Commissioners have reviewed several proposals, but they don't feel they can support a countywide system. Paramedics wages run about $250 per day. The total estimated cost to implement this type of program is $100,000. Chairman Wojt asked how a countywide EMS levy would impact the local Fire District EMS levies? Bob Wilson answered that the countywide levy could be set at $.25 per thousand which would leave $.25 per thousand for the individual Fire Districts. Chairman Wojt asked if the EMS Council is willing to pursue this? Dr. Schneidman answered that they are willing. Chairman Wojt asked who serves on the EMS Council? Bob Wilson explained that there is a representative from each Fire District, Jefferson Search and Rescue, community members, and representatives from EMS service providers, on the Council. The discussion continued regarding the need for education in the community on ALS services and what type of services are currently available in the County. Commissioner Huntingford suggested that the EMS Council provide the Board with a written proposal and recommendation regarding a countywide EMS levy. The other two Board members concurred with Commissioner Huntingford's suggestion. The Board met in Executive Session, first with Community Services Director David Goldsmith and then with Treasurer Ila Mikkelsen regarding personnel. Nancy McKay. Executive Director. and Jay Ficklin. Board Member. Pueet Sound Water Quality Authority re: Pueet Sound Manaeement Plan: Nancy McKay of the Puget Sound Water Quality Authority explained that she and Mr. Ficklin are present to share with the Board what they have learned from interviewing people in State and local governments around Puget Sound regarding how their municipalities are doing implementing the Puget Sound Management Plan.
