This SPO <br />agreement continues until either party provides at least thirty days’ notice to the other, in <br />writing, of its intent to terminate. There is no cost other than that required to pick up or <br />ship the equipment to KCSO. <br /> <br />INTERACTION: This agreement was reviewed and approved by the Kittitas County <br />Prosecutor’s Office. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION: Request to Acknowledge the State Plan of Operations <br />between the State of Washington and Kittitas County Sheriff’s Office. <br /> <br />HANDLING: None.
