This agreement expired on January 1, 1997. On December 11, 1996, the IVDA took action to extend the term of the agreement for 31 days until January 31, 1997. A similar extension was approved by Mayor and Council on January 13, 1997 by Resolution #97-5. In order to authorize continued provision of these caretaker services, it is necessary to approve the attached agreement which extends the term of the agreement retroactively from January 1, 1997 though June 30, 1998. The provisions of this agreement include: -Services of 1 police sergeant for supervision and management of the Office of Resource Protection. The Sergeant will be responsible for recruiting and managing approximately 50 part time security officers. The Sergeant services will be provided on a 40 hour/week basis. The City will be compensated in the amount of $45,000 for each 6 month's service covered by this contract -All fire related services including suppression, disaster response services and other services needed to ensure that an adequate level of fire protection is provided at the base. The Fire department will be reimbursed at the rate of $708/call for the duration of the contract. Each time a 9-1-1 call is placed from the non-aviation portion of NAFB and a fire unit responds, the City will be reimbursed $708 per call. In addition, the Fire Department will also be reimbursed for certain fire inspections, training activities, fire protection operations and other activities as defined in the agreement. The emergency disaster response services will be provided on a 24 hour/day, 7 day/week basis. -All necessary equipment/supplies including trucks and tools used in connection with the performance of the fire related services under this agreement. -Additional services as needed including refuse collection, sewer/storm drain maintenance, planning, engineering, street sweeping and street lighting will be provided on an as needed basis. It is anticipated that the IVDA will not be requesting City services on a routine basis; rather they intend to use these services only during emergencies or during periods when contract services are not available. The City will be reimbursed for all direct costs associated with providing these services to IVDA. r e e e MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT This MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT ( "Agreement" ) is made and entered into as of this 1st day of January, 1997, by and between the INLAND VALLEY DEVELOPMENT AGENCY, a public entity established pursuant to Government Code Section 6500, ~ ~., for the j oint exercise of powers ( "Agency") and the CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO, a charter city under the laws and Constitution of the State of California ("City"), with reference to the following facts: A.
