ECFSS is willing to provide such services from time to time on a fee basis established to provide cost reimbursement to the ECFSS. ECFSS does not provide such services to private parties on a commercial basis and, therefore, furnishes such services to other governmental entities as a governmental service and not as a proprietary function. The Subscribing Agency does not maintain trained personnel and equipment necessary to meet its requirements for repair and maintenance services and, therefore, has a need for such services from outside sources for its apparatus and equipment. It is the purpose of this agreement to provide the terms and conditions under which ECFSS will provide apparatus and equipment repair and maintenance services.

Exclusions/Limitations: The ECFSS shall reserve the right to exclude any other agency from participating in this Interlocal Agreement and/or limit services provided and establish qualifications or contingencies to the providing of service. 2.

Termination/Limitation of Services: The ECFSS shall have the right to terminate the participation of any Subscribing Agencies or limit services after association has been established. 4. Non-Exclusive: Notwithstanding any express or implied provision of this Agreement, all Subscribing Agencies reserve the right to provide for services of the type covered by this Agreement from their own resources or by contract or otherwise with outside persons or entities. No Subscribing Agency shall be required to exclusively use the services available under this Agreement. 5. Locations: ECFSS agrees to provide such repair and maintenance services on vehicles and equipment delivered to the Monroe Fire station by the Subscribing Agency as may be agreed upon from time to time by the Chiefs of the fire departments of the parties or their designees.

Permission to Perform Duties: The Subscribing Agency authorizes the requested repair work to be done along with the purchase of necessary parts and material and agrees that the ECFSS is not responsible for the loss or damage to the vehicles and or equipment in case of fire, theft or any other cause beyond the control of the ECFSS or for any delays caused by unavailability of parts or delays in parts shipments by the supplier or transporter. The Subscribing Agency grants the ECFSS and its personnel permission to operate the vehicle on streets, highways or elsewhere for the purpose of testing and inspection. 8. Warranty: ECFSS will repair or replace any new parts or redo any labor, which fails in normal service due to defects in parts, or labor if notified within 90 days.

Arlington has good quality of place, and our parks and public art play a big role, especially along the Centennial Trail and Olympic Avenue. We have the gift of geographical beauty, and we choose to display artistic and recreational beauty, as well. I use Arlington's parks, and have played softball on a city league. I think creating spaces and opportunities for people to get outside contributes to our residents' well-being. I was lucky enough to collect (with an amazing committee of local volunteers) the art for Cascade Valley Hospital. Our goal was to display very good pieces from regional artists, because we were committed to showcasing our local talent. If I were selected for this commission, I would also volunteer to serve as the PARC representitve to the Public Arts Committee. I understand the process required to acquire public art, and would happily donate my time to acquiring artworks for Arlington's collection. Our city is growing, and I believe that we must all work together to keep our home town look, feel and spirit. If I served on PARC, nurturing our home town spirit would be my goal, through our parks, arts and recreational programs.
