CHMEI-lK StTK!N & DAV!5 ns ATTORNEYS AT LAW ERLC make a one{ime payment of rhirty-Five Thousand Dollars ($35,000.00) dedicated to the retrofit of existing apparatus with a ladder package prior to the occupancy of any structure above24'. These mitigation terms are necessary to prevent the Project creating significant impacts to public safety. And given the fact that ERLC has elected to forego further discussions and negotiations with District in order to put this decision before the Board of Commissioners, the District requests that the Board of Commissioners include the above conditions in the Development Agreement. The manner in which ERLC requested this hearing, after minimal attempts to reach an agreement with the District, makes the District question whether ERLC actually ever intended on engaging in good faith negotiations on mitigation of impacts to the District as ordered by the Board of Commissioners. Six months has gone by since the Board of Commissioners remanded the proposed Development Agreement to ERLC to engage in discussion on mitigation of impacts to the District. ERLC's letter to the Board of Commissioners implies that ERLC has gone above and beyond in its discussion with the District. But over the last six months, ERLC only wrote three letters to the District, of which the District responded to allthree in a timely fashion. During that time, ERLC has not attempted to meet in person with the District or even attend any District Commission meetings, all of which are open to the public. As shown in more detail in the timeline below, it is an unfair accusation on part of ERLC to claim the District is delaying these mitigation discussions. .
