The CYRS desires to enhance the services provided to its City's residents by expanding its
current fire prevention, education, suppression, medical first response, hazardous materials response and
water rescue services capabilities, and by using additional revenues available under this agreement will
offset additional costs of these expanded services that would otherwise be borne solely by its taxpayers;

within CYRS, but the CYRS assumes no liability for failure to do so by reason of any circumstances
beyond its control. In the event of simultaneous service calls whereby facilities and resources of
CYRS are taxed beyond its ability to render comparable service, the officers and employees of
CYRS shall have discretion as to the priority of handling such calls.
3. The CYRS shall in the absence of CYNM having a fire code enforcement process be able to conduct
pre-fire safety plan inspections of commercial structures to ensure the safety of its personnel. These
inspections are a non-punitive process and for the sole purpose of providing a safe atmosphere for
the CYRS to operate in.
