Qty. Commissioner Brown requests the setting up of a tentative rate schedule, to be included in the agreerrent.
Draft wi'll be sent t:) the C.ity Atto.mey for approval before'.finel typing.
Mayor Joe Steve disoussed proposed SoUd Waste Plan. Said figuring approximately $2 a cu yd comes out to
$13,000 a year and he only has $8,400 in the 1974 budget. Also asked what the county planned to do regarding
the rental or purchase of the city's equipment. Commissioner'Brown advises that the county is not ready to .put !
new plan into effect by the 1st' of the year and therefore, suggests leaving things statusque until the county is
ready to make the change-over. Assistant Engineer Bagley said ,.11 arrangements should be finalized by the 1st
of February. Mayor Steve said he is contemplating letting the garbage out on contract for the city - onw prob-
lem is disposal. Commissioner Brown said the same rate would be charged no matter who did the dumping at
the disposal site. Mayor Steve' said the city will continue as is until they receive further notice from the
county.
Mayor Steve and' John .D'oubek ;CountY 'EmergElncyServices Director, discussed the emergency situation caused' ,
by the loss of the amb ulance service. Doubek said new legislation is being proposed to make ambulance and
personnel standards much more stringent and he fears .that if these laws are adopted, regulations, and guidelines
will be too restrictive and demanding to enable compliance by the voluntary ambulance personnel ~ He suggests
the 'millage has already been set, c6nsequently there are no funds available for an ambulance. Mayor Steve
suggests the county and city designate revenue sharing funds to pay for ,one. Board advised that Hospital Dis-
tricts would have to be re-district due to present service in Brinnon and Qullcene, otherwise, they would have
double taxation. Doubek said he is contacting various ag'encies for an ambulance and has one now on a tempo-
rary basis, but there's a problem obtaining trained personnel. He will draft all alternatives for presentation
to the county and the city.

Original hearing held March 26,1973 and final action has been delayed due to environmental impact statement,
