By: Sharon L. Anderson , Deputy County Counsel40 Costa
DATE: July 2 5 , 1986 County
SUBJECT: AGREEMENT RE ISSUANCE OF LEVEE PERMITS (Bethel Island Fire
Prot . Dist . and Bethel Island Municipal Improvement District )
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) 8: BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I . RECOMMENDED ACTION:
As requested by Supervisor Torlakson , approve the attached
agreement between the Bethel Island Fire Protection District
("Fire District" ) and the Bethel Island Municipal Improvement
District ("BIMID" ) allowing the Fire District to issue tem-
porary levee access permits on behalf of BIMID.
II . FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Fire District staff has indicated no financial impact . The
agreement requires BIMID to indemnify the Fire District from
any claims , costs or liability resulting from the issuance of
the permits and gives the Fire District the discretionary
right , at any time , to charge BIMID a fee for issuing the
permits .
III . REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
BIMID has asked the Fire District to issue the temporary levee
access permits for the convenience of the residents of Bethel
Island . The Fire District office is open to the public many
more hours during the week than is the BIMID office . The Fi.re
District is willing to undertake the ministerial task of
issuing the permits because the levee roads are fire lanes ,
and , for fire protection purposes , it is in the interest of
the Fire District to know when the levee roads are in use and
may be blocked .
CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Should the Board elect not to approve the agreement , it will
be more difficult for the residents of Bethel Island to obtain
permission to use the levee roads and the Fire District may
have more difficulty ascertaining whether a road may be
blocked in the event of an emergency.
