BY THE VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA'S FIRE/RESCUE DEPARTMENT.
THIS AGREEMENT made this ~~ ~ day of /~ ~ ~/S~ , 1993, by and

W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Village of Tequesta owns and maintains a fire/rescue
department capable of providing fire/rescue services not only to
residents of the Village, but on a contractual basis, to nearby
municipalities which may be in need of such service; and
WHEREAS, the Town of Jupiter Inlet Colony has no fire/rescue
department and desires to obtain such service from the Village of
Tequesta; and
WHEREAS, the Village and the Town desire to enter into this
Interlocal Agreement in order to establish the duties and
obligations of the parties in the provision of fire/rescue services
from the Village to the Town; and
WHEREAS, the Town recognizes the capital outlay and expense to
maintain a fire/rescue department assumed by the Village of
Tequesta and understands its obligation to defray, on a cost basis,
its share of the costs of said operation.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual benefits to be
derived by the parties, the adequacy and sufficiency of which is
hereby acknowledged, the Village and the Town covenant and agree as
follows:
1
SECTION 1. PURPOSE.
Chapter 163, Florida Statutes, is known as the "Florida Interlocal
Cooperation Act of 1969," and provides a mechanism to permit units
of local government, by Agreement, to make the most efficient use
of their powers to their mutual advantage. The Village and the
Town have concluded that the provisions for fire/rescue services
for the area of the Town can best be served, and therefore, the
public safety, with regards to fire rescue, of the residents of the
Town can be effectively promoted by entrance into this Interlocal
Agreement.
SECTION II. TERRITORY.
The territory in which this Agreement shall be applicable is all of
the territory located within the municipal boundaries of the Town
of Jupiter Inlet Colony.
SECTION III. TERM.
The term of this Agreement shall be for a period of ten (10) years
commencing on the 1st day of October, 1993, and extending through
the 30th day of September, 2003. This Agreement may not be
terminated by either party except in the manner set forth herein.
SECTION IV. SERVICES RENDERED.
The Village, through its fire/rescue department, shall provide fire
protection, fire rescue, advanced life support or similar service
to the Town during the term of this Agreement. The level of
service provided shall be equivalent to the level of service
provided to residents of the Village.
SECTION V. PAYMENTS.
A. Definitions of Payment Terms Used Herein.
1) Base Rate: This rate shall be established at the
beginning of the contract and shall form the basis for calculating
the Town's payment for fire/rescue costs during the contract
period. This rate shall be comprised of a Rescue Component and a
Fire Component. The initial Base Rate amount is $133,435.00.
(See Attachment 1) Village and Town agree that the initial Base
Rate is an equitable measure for services to be rendered hereunder.
2) Rescue Component: This portion of the Base Rate is
for the emergency medical portion of the fire/rescue service
consisting of Pre-Hospital Advanced Life Support Services and
Ambulance Transportation as defined by Chapter 401, Florida
Statutes, (hereinafter referred to as Emergency Medical Services
2
(EMS)).. The initial Rescue Component amount is $23,764.00. (See
Attachment 1)
3 ) Fire Component: This portion of the Base Rate is for
the fire portion of the fire/rescue service. The initial Fire
Component amount is $109,671.00. (See Attachment 1)
4) Start-up Costs: These costs are the initial one time
costs for starting up the Fire/Rescue Department. These costs are
a total of $394,545.00 and the Town's total share of Start-up Costs
is $71,020.00.
B. Payment.
In consideration for the services referenced in Section
IV, each year the Town shall pay to the Village an amount equal to
the Base Rate amount adjusted either up or down in the following
manner:
The Base Rate Amount shall be the amount due
the Village for the first fiscal year of
service (October, 1993 through September,
1994). Each year thereafter, the Rescue
Component and the Fire Component shall be
adjusted up or down from the payment for the
previous contract year by annual indices from
the Bureau of Labor Statistics Southeastern
Regional offices for May to arrive at the cost
for the next fiscal year of fire/rescue
services for the Town. The Rescue Component
shall use the annual Consumer Price Index
(CPI) for Medical Care and the Fire Component
shall use the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for
all Urban Consumer-South. (See Attachment
II). The annual cost of fire/rescue service
for the Town shall be calculated by Village on
or before the first of July each year using
the latest published annual indices and
promptly thereafter transmitted to Town. In
the event that during the term of this
Agreement the above-referenced indices are no
longer published, then the parties hereto
agree to substitute therefore a mutually
agreeable new index.
C. Start-Up Costs.
The Town's share of the Start-Up Costs shall be paid to
the Village by the Town in four (4) equal annual payments of
$17,755.00 for the first four (4) years of the contract. The
Start-Up Costs shall be added to the Base Rate as amended from year
to year and shall be paid in accordance with the Payment Schedule
3
below. Village and Town agree that Town's share of the start-up
costs is an equitable measure of the same. Subsequent to the
initial four years of this Agreement, Town's sole payment under
this Agreement shall be the Base Rate amount as adjusted in Section
V(B) above.
D. Payment Schedule.
Payment for the fire/rescue services and the Start-Up
Costs shall be made in four (4) equal payments on December 20,
February 15, May 15, and August 15 of the fiscal year that the
services are provided. In the event payment is not made on or
before the above dates, the Town shall pay a compounded daily
interest rate calculated from the three (3) month London Interbank
Offered Rate (LIBOR) on the unpaid balance.
SECTION VI. CONTRACT OPENERS
A. The Town may re-open the contract at its own discretion
under the following circumstances:
1) Emergency Medical Services (EMS). Should the Village
elect to start their own EMS or contract with another service
provider for EMS services and such action results in a request for
an increase to the Rescue Component of the Base Rate by the
Village, the Town may negotiate a new Rescue Component of the Base
Rate or find another provider of EMS and adjust the Base Rate
accordingly.
2) Should Village provide a level of service
substantially lower than the level of service provided by Village
during the first year of this Agreement, Town may renegotiate a new
Base Rate or find another provider.
3) Should Village assume a larger service area from the
service area initially serviced hereunder, excluding those areas
annexed into the Village, Town may renegotiate a new Base Rate or
find another provider.
B. The Village may re-open the contract at its own discretion
under the following circumstances:
1) New Fire Station: Should the Village decide to build
a new fire station, the Village may negotiate a new Fire Component
of the Base Rate as it pertains to the added costs of the fire
station. This opener is limited to a one time occurrence and only
to that portion of the new building associated with the fire
department. The Town also has the right at this time to review the
Fire Component of the Base Rate. Should the Town's percentage of
contribution to the Fire Component of the Base Rate, as adjusted
from year to year, increase over the Village's percentage of
contribution to the Fire Component of the Base Rate, as adjusted
4
from year to year, as measured from the first year of the contract
to the year the Village opens the contract because it is building
a new fire station, then the Town is entitled to a downward
adjustment of the Fire Component of the Base Rate, not to exceed
the above percentage increase or the Town's allocation of the new
fire station's costs, whichever is less.
2) Emergency Medical Services (EMS): Should the Village
elect to start their own EMS or contract with another service
provider for EMS service, the Village may negotiate a new Rescue
Component of the Base Rate.
3) Standards for Fire/Rescue Operation: In the event of
change(s) in standards governing the operation of the Fire or
Rescue Components (e.g. NFPA, SPA or OSHA regulations governing
staffing or equipment of fire fighters, EMT's or paramedics), which
change(s) results in a Twelve and one-half (12 1/2~) percent or
greater increase in the cost of operation in a given fiscal year,
the Village may renegotiate the affected Component(s) of the Base
Rate.
SECTION VII. TERMINATION
1) New Regional Service Provider. Should a new
fire/rescue provider be formed which is providing service to two
(2 ) or more governmental entities in the northern Palm Beach County
or southern Martin County areas, the Town may elect to join this
service provider by providing the Village written notice of its
intent to terminate this Agreement. Such notice shall be made
eighteen (18) months prior to termination. For purposes of this
section, governmental entity is defined as either a municipality or
county and shall exclude existing municipal service taxing units
and mutual aid agreements.
2) Elimination of Village Fire Department. In the event
the Village shall elect to cease operation of its Fire Department,
the Village may terminate this Agreement by providing the Town
written notice of its intent to terminate this Agreement, such
notice to be provided at least eighteen (18) months prior to said
termination.
SECTION VIII. DEFAULTS.
1) Village Default. In the event of a breach or default
by the Village of the covenants and agreements hereunder, the Town
shall provide notice of such breach or default to the Village and
allow the Village sixty (60) days to completely cure such default.
Should the Village, in fact, so fail to cure, within the time
specified above, then and in that event, the Town may elect,
without prejudice, not to continue with the terms of this
Agreement. Should the Town enter into a contract with another
provider of fire/rescue services as a result of a default by the
5
Village, the Village shall be responsible for any additional costs
over the costs the Town would have paid to the Village for these
services for the completion of that fiscal year; provided, Town
shall attempt to mitigate any damages in negotiating a new
fire/rescue contract with another provider. Either party may bring
the appropriate action in the Circuit Court for enforcement of the
provisions of this Agreement. In the event of litigation, any
costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) associated
with said litigation concerning the terms or conditions of this
Agreement shall be borne by the non-prevailing party; provided,
however, that this clause pertains only to the parties to this
Agreement.
2) Town Default. Should the Town fail to make a
scheduled payment as described in Section V, Paragraph D, the
Village shall have the right to notify the Town that unless all
payments that are due are received within the next ninety (90)
days, all fire/rescue services will cease at the end of that ninety
(90) day period. The Village shall have the right to pursue
payment in a court of .competent jurisdiction. In the event of
litigation, any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys'
fees) associated with said litigation concerning the terms or
conditions of this Agreement shall be borne by the non-prevailing
party; provided, however, that this clause pertains only to the
parties to this Agreement.
SECTION I%. CODE AND ADMINISTRATION.
The Code of Ordinances of the Village of Tequesta as attached
hereto as Attachment III as they relate to fire/rescue services and
fire protection, including plan review, building inspection and
fire suppression, shall be applicable within the Town of Jupiter
Inlet Colony. Any changes to the Code of Ordinances as attached in

the Town Commission. All rules and regulations, policies and
procedures, as they pertain to fire/rescue services, of the Village
of Tequesta fire/rescue department shall be effective within the

suitable to the Town, the Town may request of the Village Manager
6
that the disputed matter be scheduled on the next available Village

SECTION %I. LIABILITY/INDEMNIFICATION.
Since Village has agreed to provide fire/rescue services to Town
pursuant to this Interlocal Agreement, and further Village has
retained full and complete control of the provisions of the
fire/rescue services hereunder, Village, therefore, agrees to
indemnify and hold Town harmless from any loss, damage, or
liability that Town may suffer from claims made against Town by
reason of any act or omission arising out of, or in any way related
to, the provision of, including failure to provide, fire/rescue
services hereunder. This indemnification includes all losses,
claims, demands, costs, judgments, investigative expenses, and
attorneys' fees Town may incur in defending any such claim or
demand. Village liability pursuant to this Agreement is subject to
the limits of the waiver of sovereign immunity as specified in
5768.28, F.S.

Should any section, paragraph, sentence, clause or provision hereof
be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be ineffective,
such shall not affect the remaining portions of this Agreement.
