A review of the existing mutual aid agreements in place <br />with adjoining counties revealed they were last signed in 1994. The counties of Barnes, <br />Steele, Ransom, Richland and Clay are willing to join Cass County in these <br />memorandums of understanding. <br /> <br />This agreement does not bind Cass County to provide aid, but rather identifies the <br />responsibilities of the parties and establishes the mechanisms to provide disaster <br />assistance while qualifying for eligible federal aid to cover those costs. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />CWJU <br /> <br />Dave Rogness <br /> <br />SUGGESTED MOTION: I move to approve renewal of Memorandums of Understanding <br />for Emergency Assistance with Barnes, Steel, Ransom, Richland and Clay counties. <br />
