DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND

In order to memorialize and update the nature of the services to be provided by the County to EDCWA, and the method and manner of compensation to the County by EDCWA for providing those services, an updated Services Agreement was approved by the Board on February 14, 2017, with Legistar item 17-0180.
Amendment I to the Services Agreement is being requested to include language in Exhibit A regarding Property Insurance. On October 12, 2022, the EDCWA Board of Directors by Resolution No. WA-16-2022 approved the Agreement (Attachment B).
