1. Resolution to Endorse the Concept of a Merged Pierce-St. Croix County PSAP
Administrator Thompson reported the draft resolution was a topic for discussion at the
last Public Protection meeting. The consultants and staff presented information in front of
the Committee of the Whole (COTW). This resolution is to endorse the concept of a
merged PSAP with Pierce County and directs administration to take all necessary steps to
develop an implementation plan. Members of the committee expressed concern with
discussing the resolution without Director Swetlik present for input. Director Swetlik is
on leave for approximately three weeks.
Supervisor Brinkman motions to table this discussion until Director Swetlik would be
available. Ostness seconds. Corporation Counsel noted a table motion cannot be made
because there is not a motion to accept the resolution. The Committee could choose to
not act on the resolution. Brinkman withdraws the motion.
Supervisor Kiesler moves to pass this resolution, Brinkman seconds. Supervisor Ostness
moves to postpone the resolution until ESS Director Casey Swetlik can be here to have
input in the discussion. Brinkman seconds. Discussion. Corporation Counsel says
discussion on the postponement of the resolution can now be held. Supervisor Brinkman
feels discussion on this resolution should be postponed until Casey is back and can
answer questions and give his input.
