This award represents WDA’s selection of the top overall public defender at a state-wide level. Ms. Boughton, who has only been licensed since 2020, has made an incredible impression with her extraordinary service to her clients. For an attorney with only four years’ experience to win this award is virtually unprecedented. Of a full staff of six attorneys, this makes two winners of this award serving Mason County Public Defense. This is per capita higher than any other county in the state – indeed, it is simply higher (without respect to capita) than many much larger counties, including King and Pierce. Ms. Boughton, with this award, has made sure that Mason County stands out as an example of a county serving its public defense clients right. Budget Impact (amount, funding source, budget amendment): None Public Outreach (news release, community meeting, etc.): N/A Requested Action: Formal recognition at the county level of Ms. Boughton’s achievements to include the Green Star award.

Mason County Community Development Briefing April 15, 2024 Briefing Items → Implementation of TEGRIS Inspection Management System – Kell Rowen Mason County Agenda Request Form To: Board of Mason County Commissioners From: Randy Collins, Fire Marshal Ext. 309 Department: Community Development Briefing: ☒ Action Agenda: ☐ Public Hearing: ☐ Special Meeting: ☐ Briefing Date(s): April 15, 2024 Agenda Date: Click or tap here to enter text. Internal Review: ☐ Finance ☐ Human Resources ☐ Legal ☐ Information Technology ☐ Risk (This is the responsibility of the requesting Department) Below for Clerk of the Board’s Use Only: Item Number: __________ Approved: ☐ Yes ☐ No ☐ Tabled ☐ No Action Taken Ordinance/Resolution No. __________ Contract No. __________ County Code: __________ Item: Implementation of TEGRIS Inspection Management System Background/Executive Summary: The County adopts the International Fire Code (IFC) as part of our Municipal Code Title 14. Part of that code requires building owners to have their life safety systems such as fire alarms, sprinkler systems and other equipment inspected on a regular basis. Those reports are then sent to the County Fire Marshal for approval and records retention which has been a standard practice for decades. The current system in place is not efficient as current reports are being sent in multiple ways. Some are mailed while others are emailed to the Community Development Department. Every report has its own format and ways to identify deficiencies. The result is a current system that takes an exorbitant amount of time to review and maintain a filing system given these variations in reporting. This program will help the Community Development Department better manage reporting, more easily follow up on systems that have deficiencies, and retain our required reporting records. It is a cloud-based system that allows the office to access the system remotely. Although not adopted, many companies in Mason County already use this system and fifty businesses are using TEGRIS Fire for their reporting needs. Budget Impact (amount, funding source, budget amendment): There is no charge to the County for using the reporting system. Inspection companies pay a fee when they upload their reports. The maximum charge to the inspection company is up to $15. Public Outreach (news release, community meeting, etc.): The IFC currently requires reporting; this system is a preferred reporting method. TEGRIS Fire will notify all contractors on the county's behalf that this is the way to report to Mason County. As the current system used by Shelton, inspection companies are already in the practice of using this reporting. It is my opinion that our office will realize a more efficient operation should it be approved. A letter explaining the reporting will also be included with all notices that go out for the first year. See the attached example. Requested Action: As per IFC [A] 108.1 Maintenance of safeguards, [A] 108.2 Testing and operation, [A] 108.3 Recordkeeping make TEGRIS Fire the reporting system inspectors are required to report to as of May 1st, 2024. Attachments: Example Letters MASON COUNTY FIRE MARSHAL Mason County Bldg. 8 615 W Alder St, Shelton, WA 98584 (360) 427-9670 Ext. 309 Date TBD SAMPLE FIRST YEAR LETTER Dear Business/Building Owner: The Mason County Fire Marshal’s office has entered into an agreement with Tegris Incorporated to employ an electronic Inspection Management System within our service area. The purpose of this program is to ensure that the fire protection systems are functional and ready for use if needed. The Tegris system allows your existing fire protection system company or inspector to submit an electronic report on the functionality of your fire alarm system, fire sprinkler system, commercial hood suppression system and or any other fire and life safety system that is installed or exists in your facility. The purpose of this program is to assist the Mason County Fire Marshal with inspecting, testing and maintenance of all Fire and Life Safety systems within the county. This periodic testing is required by state and local ordinance and is to be conducted by a state licensed and certified inspector. The program will populate and maintain a database for easy access to fire and life safety inspection information. Through the use of a secure web site, property owners, testing companies and the fire marshal can all view and edit property information and fire protection system status. The Tegris system will automatically send reminders to property owners or manages when systems are due for testing. This service will ensure that you are aware of the status of your fire protection system, as well as the maintenance and testing responsibilities required under the International Fire Code.
