The resolution stipulated that the contract must be siqned within 60 days of the resolution. Immediately followinq the Mayor and Council action, City and county staff met to plan for the transfer of responsibilities.

The County requested that this problem be resolved before the contract is heard by the Board of supervisors. The city is upqradinq our computer dispatch system our emerqency response status, and expects to process by January. Once this technical issue is expected that the County Board of Supervisors necessary action on the fire service contract. and chanqinq complete the resolved, it is will take the RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Mayor and Common Council extend the deadline of the execution of the contract for County Service Area 38 until February 28, 1991.
