City Hall • 3300 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach, California 92663 • r NEWPORT BEACH FIRE DEPARTMENT TO: R. L. Wynn, City Manager FROM: J. M. Reed, Fire Chief MAY 18, 1984 SUBJECT: Automatic Aid Agreement With Orange County AGENDA ITEM NO. F2A On September 18, 1981, the City of Newport Beach and the County of Orange renewed an automatic aid agreement for the following fire protection and rescue services. The County Fire Station #27 responds first -due into the city area north of Santa Isabel Avenue and is second -due into areas south of Santa Isabel Avenue. The City provides first -due fire protection and rescue services to various county areas adjacent to the City boundaries. This agreement expires June 30, 1984. It should be revised and renewed in order to continue the current level of protection provided to that area of the community. The services provided and the working relationship between the two departments have been satisfactory. The proposed revised agreement includes two changes. First, the method of apportioning the operating costs of Station #27 will be based on a simple 50/50 split of those operating costs rather than the present method of deriving the split from a comparison of the assessed valuations of the city and county areas served by Station #27. In each of the past three years the City has paid about 51% of the cost based on the existing method. Is is anticipated that this would continue for the near future. Second, the agreement period has been changed to extend for five years rather than the present three year period. The fire department staff recommends that the City renew the agreement at a cost for 1984 -85 of $285,812. (The 1983 -84 cost was $270,588.) This is an increase of $15,224 (5.63 %). The charge to the City is based on one -half of the estimated operating costs of Station #27 under this agreement. J. M.

The proposed agreement for 1981 -82 (copy attached) contains a cost increase from $127,786 in 1980 -81 to $188,616 in 1981 -82. The reason for this increase is due to the following: 1. Increases in cost of salaries, benefits and supplies. 2. The annexation of County territory which formerly offset a portion of Newports' charges. 3. Errors in assessment roll value computations used in last year's allocation which understated Newport Beach's share of the costs, While the cost of the agreement has increased substantially, it is still a cost effective method of providing fire protection service to North Newport Beach. Also, the County has submitted a second proposal (copy attached) that includes the following: 1. A multi -year (three year contract). 2. A contract price of $153,343 for 1981 -82 which represents a 20 percent increase over the 1980 -81 price. 3. A phase in arrangement over the next two years to pick up one - half of the difference between $153,343 and the 1982 -83 price as calculated by formula. Fiscal year 1983 -84 would be at full formula price. The services provided and the working relationship between the two departments has been satisfactory. The number of incidents occurring in this area from January 1, 1980, to December 30, 1980, was 309 (121 fires, 160 medical aids, 28 service calls). Many letters of appreciation and thank you notes have been received for the fast, courteous and efficient service. Very few complaints have been registered. If a decision is made to renew the agreement, the staff would support that decision and expect the services provided and the working relationship to continue to be satisfactory. r Mayor and City Council September 28, 1981 Page 2 However, before a decision is made, the Council should consider four alternative methods of providing fire protection service. Those four alternatives are: 1. Discontinue the County agreement and service the area from the Newport Center and Mariners fire stations. 2. Approve a one year agreement and renew each year. 3. Approve a three year agreement and review again in 1984. 4. Approve a three year agreement and during those three years, prepare to open a Newport Beach fire station in this area. ALTERNATIVE 1: Discontinue the County Agreement and serve the area from the Newport Center and Mariners Fire Stations. This alternative was discussed by the City Council about fourteen months ago. The decision reached at that time was the response time and travel distance was excessive. This decision is still valid and it is assumed the Council's position has not changed. ALTERNATIVE 2: Approve a one year agreement and renew each year. This alternative is a workable program for the fire department and meets the immediate needs of the area. However, the cost of the 1981 -82 agreement has increased $60,830 (47.6 %) and while the costs should not increase as dramatically in future years, the increases in salaries and annexation of County territories will impact Newport's future cost. The one year proposal has Newport Beach paying 51.59% of the operating cost of Station 27. This percentage will increase in future years. In the long term, this arrangement will not be in Newport's best financial interest. ALTERNATIVE 3: Approve a three year agreement and review again in 1984. This alternative is also a workable program and meets the immediate needs of the area. Again, for the reason stated in Alternative 2, it does not resolve the issue for the long term. ALTERNATIVE 4: Approve a three year agreement and during those three years, prepare to open a Newport Beach Fire Station in this area. This alternative would require an approval of the three year agreement with Orange County. During those three years, staff would prepare and submit to Council for approval a plan to open a Newport Beach Fire Station in this area. This alternative, f Mayor and City Council September 28, 1981 Page 3 in the long term, is the most cost effective and efficient. The success of this plan is contingent upon the City of Costa Mesa and Newport Beach developing an automatic aid agreement for the exchange of fire protection service. The Fire Department staffs of both communities have been meeting and have agreed, subject to Council approval, that an exchange of service is desirable. If an agreement is approved, Newport Beach will provide engine company and paramedic services into selected areas of Costa Mesa. In exchange, Costa Mesa will provide truck company service to the western half of Newport Beach. This plan will allow the truck company personnel (three men per shift) to be reassigned to man an engine company in the new fire station. This reassignment of existing personnel allows for the opening of the station with minimum annual expense. The estimated cost to construct and operate a fire station in this area is: CaDital Outlav Items: Construct Fire Station (4160 sq. ft. @ $100 per) Professional Fee Miscellaneous and Contingencies Furnishings and Equipment Purchase of Fire Engine and Equipment Total Capital Outlay $ 416,000 62,400 40,000 50,000 157,000 $ 725,000 NOTE: Site acquisition costs are variable and are not included in this proposal. Annual Expenditures: Increased Overtime $ 30,000 M & 0 for Facility 15,000 Total Annual Expenditures $ 45,000 0 Mayor and City Council September 28, 1981 Page 4 Alternative four will provide for a continuation of protection service and address the concern for fire Of the four options, alternative four will satisfy fire protection needs of the area. j J.

It has come to our attention that your budget committee will be recom- mending a rejection of the proposed contract to your city council on August 24, 1981. Also, that the primary reason for this rejection is an increase of $60,830 over the 1980 -81 contract price. The increase of $60,830 is due to the following reasons: (1) Increases in costs of salaries, benefits and supplies (2) The annexation of County territory which formerly offset a portion of your charges, (3) Errors in assessment roll value computations used in last year's allocation which understated Newport Beach's share of the costs.. Our Department feels that the proposed agreement was equitable and fair to all parties, It is of increasing concern to me that we are operating without benefit of a contract for this year. Our department needs to make an immediate decision as to the continued operation of Station #27. The present arrangement provides services at a much lower cost than any of the tnnnkc n1= TCr,Tnac cnvc I IXr =c t Mr. Robert Wynn Page 2 parties can service the area for individually. For this reason I am making the following proposal to enable a continuation of this mutually beneficial arrangement; (1) A multi -year (3 -year contract) (2) A contract price of $153,343 for 1981 -82 which represents a 20 percent increase over the 1980 -81 price. (3) A phase in arrangement over the next two years to pick up one - half of the difference between $153,343 and the 1982 -83 price as calculated by formula. Fiscal year 1983 -84 would be at full formula price. If you are interested in such a proposal, please contact me within two weeks. In the absence of such an agreement, it is my recommendation to Chief Holms (from a financial standpoint) that he close the station at the end of the two -week period. (i.e., 9 -3 -81) I will look forward to hearing from you in the near future. Respectfully, Gtr . 1)1-ae Kenneth W.

In return, the City has provided fire services for the County Triangle, the Banning property, the horse ranch east of Cameo Shores, and some County islands adjacent to Irvine Avenue. The County has provided their services from Fire Station No. 27, located on the airport property. In 1979, as a result of Proposition 13, and the County assuming financial responsibility for some state firefighters, the Orange County Board of Supervisors com- missioned a fire feasibility study. This study analyzed the Orange County firefighting capability and made certain recommendations with respect to modifying the County's firefighting facilities. One specific recommendation made was that the County close Fire Station No. 27 which would impact the Koll Center and the Emkay properties. During the first part of 1980 the County approached the City to determine interest of joint funding of County Fire Station No. 27. They proposed that with some City financial support, the County would keep the subject station open. For the past five months Newport Beach representatives have met with Orange County representatives to explore this possibility. Page -2- The Fire Chief has submitted a memo to me, dated August 18, 1980, (copy attached) in which he recommends that the City sign a proposed agree- ment with the County of Orange providing City financial support for Station No. 27. His report further lists alternatives available to the City. There is another alternative, however, available to the City not discussed in this - memo. The other alternative is to service the northern section of Newport Beach (Koll /Emkay) by the Newport Center Fire Station and the Mariners Fire Station and not enter into any agreement with the County. This alternative could, in time, result in an increase in fire insurance rates for improvements in the Koll Center and in the Emkay develop- ment. The rate increase would probably come in 1985, even though there is a possibility that the insurance companies may "spot rate" the subject area prior to 1985. The last City rating by the Insurance Services Office (I.S.O.) was given Newport Beach in 1975. Normally, the I.S.O. will rate a city every ten years, thus the next rating would come in 1985 unless, as indicated above, a "spot rate" is implemented. The Fire Chief estimates that the subject area could possibly go from a 3 rating to a 5 rating (1, being the best on a scale of 1 to 10) if a fire station is not provided in the area. An estimate of the amount of fire insurance increase in the subject area due to a raise from a 3 rating to a 5 rating is even more difficult to estimate than the time in which the rating will become effective. In 1975, when the Insurance Services Office rated Newport Beach, the area by the air- port was reduced from a Class 6 to a Class 3. The balance of the City was reduced from a Class 4 to a Class 3. We were advised at that time that a typical commercial zoned property in Class 4 will receive about a 9% reduc= tion on a building fire insurance premium and about a 4% premium reduction 0 Page -3- on contents by going to a Class 3 0 A typical commercial property in Class 6 will receive about a 21% reduction on building fire insurance premiums and about an 11% premium reduction on the contents by going to a Class 3. Rates on properties protected by automatic sprinkler systems, (and 66 of 197 buildings in the subject area have automatic sprinkler systems) will be reduced approximately 5% by going from a 6 rated fire zone to a 3 rated fire zone. In other words, the City was notified in 1975 that for a build- ing protected with automatic sprinkler systems a rate reduction of approxi- mately 1.7% per fire rate zone could be expected. In a commercial build- ing not protected by a sprinkler system a rate reduction of approximately 9% per fire rate zone would be achieved. This would mean that fire insur- ance premiums could increase on buildings protected by automatic sprinkler systems approximately 3.4% and for buildings not protected by automatic sprinkler systems the fire insurance premiums could increase by approximately 18% if the Koll /Emkay areas go from a fire rating of 3 to a 5. If the City signs the contract with the County it is assumed that the subject area would stay in Class 3 and fire insurance premiums would remain constant, but the City's annual Fire Department budget would increase a minimum of $127,786/yr. If the City does not sign the agreement, fire insurance rates could increase to the owner or tenant of the building, but the City's budget would not increase. It is not known what the aggregate fire insurance premiums are in the subject area and, therefore, it is un- known whether the increases would be less or greater than $127,786.00/yr. Staff, therefore, cannot advise the Council with certainty whether the total fire insurance premium in the subject area would surpass the cost 9 Page -4- to the City of the County contract. The subject matter, therefore, cannot be decided on economics alone. The question, therefore, may be asked -- Is the City morally obligated to provide a fire station in the subject area, or sign the County agreement? There are two points that should be made. -- 1. Initially, when the Emkay parcel was in the planning stages, the representative of the developer made a conscious effort to delete fire station uses on the property. He was advised by me, personally, that without a fire station the fire in- surance rates may increase. He responded that as a developer he would prefer the increase over the unsightly appearance of a fire station in the planned community. He may not speak for the current tenants, but he did speak for the developer initially. Primarily, because of this attitude, the City did not reserve property in the subject area for a fire station. Koll representa- tives and Collins Radio group, who owned the property prior to Mr. Koll, to my knowledge have not reviewed the fire station /fire insurance rate increase alternative. 2. There are some fire chiefs in the state who believe that solid data is not available to pinpoint whether a five, ten, or fifteen minute response time will substantially increase the risk for loss of life, or a specific dollar value of property damage. Traditional- ly, response time, as suggested by the Insurance Services Office, is approximately three minutes, using one and one -half miles as a distance. It must be remembered that I.S.O. suggestions or criteria are idealistic. I.S.O. does not consider the local economics in establishing response time criteria. I.S.O. further suggests, for Page -5- 0 instance, that four men should be used on fire apparatus equip- ment. We currently are using three men because it is more cost- effective. Koll /Emkay areas are approximately 3.3 miles from the Newport Center Fire Station. Assuming the fire truck can average 33 miles per hour, the response time to the subject area from the Newport Center Fire Station would be approximately six minutes. There are some times of the day that the fire truck could average less than 33 miles per hour, and there are other times of the day in which the fire truck could average more than 33 miles per hour. Assuming the fire truck can average 40 miles per hour, the response time would be approximately 4.8 minutes. Medical aid response, like fire, may or may not be critical at the three minute goal suggested by I.S.O. If the Fire Department arrives within three minutes, how is it known whether two minutes was the critical time element needed to save life or reduce property damage? As a summary, suffice it to say that many experts disagree on the value of a three, five or ten minute response time to decrease risk of life or property. There are a number of general comments and background information that may be of interest to the City Council. A number of cities were surveyed to determine response times, number of fire stations, etc. This survey is at- tached as "Exhibit I." The first three columns in Exhibit I are self- explana- tory. The fourth refers to the maximum response time deemed ultimately ac- ceptable by the subject department. The fifth column refers to actual maxi- mum response time in areas in the respective cities similar in terms of type Page -6- of development to that in northern Newport Beach area. Columns 6 and 7 refer to actual maximum response time to any area of the subject City, ir- respective of type of development. To place this data in proper reference, the subject property (Koll /Emkay) is approximately 3.3 miles from the Newport Center Fire Station. Assuming, again, the fire truck can average 33 miles per hour, the response time to the subject area from the Newport Center Fire Station would be six minutes. Attached, as "Exhibit II ", you will find a list of all the fire zone classes in each of the twenty -six cities within Orange County. Keep in mind that the current fire class rating in the subject area is a 3 and could go to a fire zone class 5 if a fire station isn't provided in the im- mediate vicinity. SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS It appears that there are two basic alternatives available to the City Council. One alternative is to enter into an agreement with the County for fire protection services for the Koll /Emkay properties. The other basic alternative is to service the northern section of Newport Beach by the Newport Center Fire Station and the Mariners Fire Station and not enter into an agreement with the County. The alternative listed in the Fire Chief's memo for Newport Beach to construct, equip and man a new facility is not cost - effective and, in my judgment, should be eliminated at this time. The other alternative listed in the Fire Chief's memo to form a committee to study this issue is also deemed unacceptable. In my opinion, the City is qualified to study this issue and reach an acceptable conclusion. If the City Council is of the opinion, after reading this report, that the best interests of the City would be served by providing firefighting Page -7- capability within the subject area, the proposed County contract should be approved. The County contract is much less expensive than constructing and manning a City fire station. On the other hand, if the City Council believes that adequate protection can be provided from the Newport Center Fire Station, the County agreement should not be approved. Technically, the Fire Chief will state that firefighting capabilities are needed in the subject area. On the other hand, however, there is reason to question the cost- effective- ness of maintaining firefighting capabilities in the area. Fire insurance rates may increase, but there is insufficient proof that risk to life and property would be increased if Fire Station No. 27 is closed. ROBERT L.

REED, Fire Chief SUBJECT: Fire and Emergency Medical Services for the Northern Section of Newport Beach. For several years the Orange County Fire Department from the Airport Fire Station #27, at the corner of Campus Drive and Dove Street, has provided first due fire suppression and emergency medical services in the northern section of Newport Beach. Station #27 provides a first due engine company response within the minimum required travel distance to allow the area to receive the same insurance rates as the remainder of the city. More important, the response is short enough to keep fires small enough to be manageable and to be able to initiate medical life support measures according to their urgency. We have been notified that this fire station is scheduled to be closed in the immediate future. If this happens, the first due engine company from Newport Beach to respond into this area will be well beyond the recommended travel distance to provide the desired, as well as an equivalent level of service available to the other areas of this community. On June 25, 1980, a meeting was held with representatives of Orange County and the City of Newport Beach to explore the possibility of these two agencies developing an agreement that would provide for joint use and funding of the personnel and equipment at Station #27. The County Board of Supervisors at their July 21 regular meeting agreed to a continuation of the operations of Station #27 while contract negotiations are being conducted. This report contains a description of the area and three alternatives, including a joint agreement with Orange County, that need to be considered before a decision is made on this issue. DESCRIPTION OF THE AREA The area being considered consists primarily of commercial office space with a mix of hotel, restaurant and light industrial businesses distributed throughout. Fourteen of the buildings are three and four stories high, and ten more are from five stories to ten stories. A moderate percentage of the buildings have built -in fire protection. The population is highest during business hours and minimal between midnight and 6:00 a.m. Traffic flow becomes congested at times related to the work day. The majority of need for service is the result of growth of the area in the last several years. 0 0 MEMO: R. L. Wynn Page 2 In the early 1970's, a decision was made to rely on such service for this area as was available from the Orange County Fire Department Station #27 at the John Wayne Airport. At present, 303 responses or 6.6% of the City's calls annually are in the industrial and commercial section of this area. Comparable areas, such as the industrial and commercial sections of Newport Center and Lido generate respectively 7.7% and 9% of the annual calls. The level of demand for each of these areas is more than twice that of other districts of the City. Fire stations are presently located near the center of both the Lido and Newport Center areas. Other fire protection available to this area is provided by Newport Beach fire stations at Newport Center and at Dover and Irvine. These stations are two and one half times farther away than the standard accepted response distance for this type of area (standard accepted response distance is 12 miles). They are over five times farther away than the fire company responses to other comparable areas within the City. Prior to Station #27 providing first due engine company service, this area's fire rating was two classifications higher than areas within the City. ALTERNATIVES: There are three alternatives that need to be considered before a decision is made regarding this issue. The three alternatives are: The City of Newport Beach to construct, equip and man a new facility in this area. Approve an agreement with Orange County for automatic aid to serve this area. Form a committee to study this issue and report back to City Council with other alternatives. ALTERNATIVE 1 (The City of Newport Beach to construct, equip and man a new facility in this area). This alternative would require a substantial capital outlay expenditure to purchase land, construct a facility and provide the necessary fire equipment. It would also require the hiring of nine additional personnel to man the facility. This station would then become an integral part of the Newport Beach Fire Department. Their training, supervision, management objectives and daily activities would be coordinated and controlled to insure a consistent level of service is provided. MEMO: R. L. Wynn Page 3 Some of the advantages of this alternative are: a. Will provide a consistent level of service between all areas of the City. b. Will increase the overall fire defense strength within the community. c. Will maintain the insurance rating classification of Class 3. d. Will provide a first due engine company within the recommended travel distance. e. Will provide a totally integrated Newport Beach engine company. f. Will provide a crew to perform support services in their first due district (inspections, pre - plans, hydrant detail, etc.) Some of the disadvantages of this alternative are: a. Will require a capital outlay expenditure to construct and equip a facility of approximately $1,000,000. b. Will require an annual increase in the department's budget of approximately $350,000 to hire nine additional employees. ALTERNATIVE 2 (Approve an agreement with Orange County for automatic aid to serve this area). This alternative would require Newport Beach to sign an agreement with Orange County. The agreement would provide first due engine company service for this area at a cost of $127,786 for the first year. The agreement would also provide for service to various County territories from the Newport Beach Fire Department. The agreement would be reviewed annually by both parties and is subject to termination by either Newport Beach or Orange County. Some of the advantages of this alternative are: a. Will provide a first due engine company within the recommended travel distance. b. Will maintain the insurance rating classification of Class 3. c. Does not require a capital outlay expenditure by Newport Beach. MEMO: R. L. Wynn Page 4 Some of the disadvantages of this alternative are: a. Requires an annual expendirure of $127,786 to contract for County service (this cost is subject to an adjustment based on the result of pending salary negotiations). b. Difficulties of dispatch and radio communication between agencies. c. The County engine companies would not be totally integrated into our system and become intimately familiar with our operational procedures. ALTERNATIVE 3 (Form a committee to study this issue and report back to City Council with other alternatives). This alternative would require a committee to be formed for the purpose of reviewing other alternatives that would require a reorganization of the fire department. Some of these options would impact the current level of service and cause a reaction by various special interest groups. An advantage of the alternative is: a. Will provide an opportunity for input as to the level of fire department service. Some of the disadvantages of this alternative are: a. Will probably delay any decision and actions. b. A delay in reaching a decision may jeopardize an agreement between Newport Beach and the County. SUMMARY: An urgent decision is needed regarding the fire and emergency medical services provided to the northern Newport Beach area. The Orange County Fire Station #27 is scheduled for closure. If this happens, the travel time and distance to provide fire and emergency medical services will be beyond recommended standards. The level of service to this area will be inconsistent with the remainder of the City and delays will occur in responding to incidents. The insurance rating classification will increase from a Class 3 resulting in increased fire insurance premiums for commercial and industrial properties. RECOMMENDATION: I recommend that the City of Newport Beach sign the proposed agreement with the County of Orange and that the staff report back to City Council with recommendations i for the next fiscal year.
