AUTOMATIC AID AGREEMENTAutomatic Aid Agreement • September 8th, 2011
Contract Type FiledSeptember 8th, 2011Purpose: The purpose of this agreement is to establish enhanced automatic response guidelines determined by Williamson County, Tennessee, (“County”) the Williamson County Rescue Squad, Inc (“WCRS”) and City of Franklin Fire Department (“Department”) to be in the best interest of public safety and to the mutual benefit of both communities. The Automatic Aid districts outlined in this document identify perceived target hazards in each jurisdiction for which the benefits of an enhanced initial response have been identified. This agreement provides for the simultaneous dispatch of both agencies, resulting in the delivery of a greater initial response force to these target hazards within a shorter period of time. This agreement does not preclude the use of Mutual Aid between these two communities nor does it supersede or supplant either statewide (i.e. Mutual Aid and Emergency and Disaster Assistance Agreement Act) or local contracts such as the Emergency Assistance Policies and Procedures
