RE: |
Emergency Siren License Agreement
|
Douglas County Emergency Management has identified the need to install a siren in the east portion of the city (see attached map) for the purposes of providing emergency services and protecting the health, safety, and welfare of residents of the County. The siren will be mounted on a pole within the East Hills Drive right-of-way. A license agreement between the city and county is necessary to establish certain parameters for locating in the right-of-way. That agreement is attached for the Commission’s consideration.
Action Requested
Authorize the City Manager to execute a license agreement with Douglas County to install a pole-mounted siren within the East Hills Drive right-of-way for the purposes of providing emergency services and protecting the health, safety, and welfare of residents of the County.
