Open Session Item
SUBJECT: Proclamation for Sexual Assault Awareness Month
PRESENTATION DATE: April 18, 2023
PRESENTATION BY: Board of County Commissioner of Washington County to Ashley Sizemore,
Director of Advocacy Services and Marsha Knoll, Outreach Director, CASA, Inc.
RECOMMENDED MOTION: N/A
REPORT-IN-BRIEF: Proclamation Presentation
WHEREAS, Sexual Assault Awareness Month is intended to draw attention to the fact that sexual
violence is widespread and has public health implications for every community member of
Washington County, and;
WHEREAS, rape, sexual assault, and sexual harassment impact our community as seen by
statistics from the Maryland Coalition Against Sexual Assault as 21.3% of adult women have
experiences completed or attempted rape and 44% of women and 23.8% of men in Maryland have
experienced other forms of sexual violence, and;
WHEREAS, through prevention education and increased awareness, there is compelling evidence
that we can be successful in reducing sexual violence in Washington County and hold perpetrators
who commit acts of violence responsible for their actions, and;
WHEREAS, Washington County strongly supports the efforts of national, state, and local
partners, and of every citizen to actively engage in public and private efforts, including
conversations about what sexual violence is, how to prevent it, how to help survivors connect with
services, and how every segment of our society can work together to better address sexual violence.
NOW THEREFORE, we the Board of County Commissioners of Washington County, Maryland,
hereby recognize the month of April as Sexual Assault Awareness Month and encourage all
citizens to join anti-sexual violence advocates and support service programs in the belief that all
community members must be part of the solution to end sexual violence.

SUBJECT: Agriculture – Faces of Farming Presentation
PRESENTATION DATE: Tuesday, April 18, 2023
PRESENTATION BY: Leslie Hart, Business Development Specialist, Department of Business
Development
RECOMMENDED MOTION: N/A
REPORT-IN-BRIEF: “Faces of Farming” is an agricultural-focused video marketing campaign that
will showcase two local Washington County farms every month, for one year. The “Faces of Farming”
marketing videos will be showcased on the County’s website, as well as Facebook and other social
media platforms, and will target a new industry and highlight a local farmer from that specific
agricultural industry. Additionally, the Faces of Farming marketing campaign will be utilized in
Washington County Public Schools as an agricultural education element focused on kindergarten to
Fifth grade students to connect Washington County youth directly with local farms.
DISCUSSION: Washington County’s agricultural business represents the backbone of the County’s
landscape. With over 900 operating family farms and $153,725,000 in market value of products sold,
agriculture is the largest economic driver in Washington County. The “Faces of Farming” marketing
campaign will aim to educate residents in Washington County, along with the surrounding States and
Counties, about the economic impact of the Ag industry. Additionally, these videos will be used for
agricultural education to numerous streams around Washington County, such as, 4-H and FFA (Future
Farmers of America) meetings, Ag Expo and Fair, and they will be available on the Washington County
Ag App and website.

SUBJECT: EMS Staffing Transition
PRESENTATION DATE: April 18, 2023
PRESENTATION BY: R. David Hays - Director, Division of Emergency Services
David Chisholm, Deputy Director, Division of Emergency Services
Dale Fishack, President, WCVFRA
RECOMMENDATION:
1. Motion to authorize the Division of Emergency Services to begin a transition of the volunteer EMS
corporations into County employment, beginning with the Williamsport Fire and EMS and Smithsburg
Emergency Medical Services.
2. Motion to authorize the Division of Emergency Services and the Office of Budget and Finance to
establish a County-wide EMS Billing Program, and as such, move the EMS billing services to the
County at such time as individual EMS companies transition their career employees into County
employment and to hire one (1) EMS Billing Specialist (included in the EMS transition staff) and one
(1) HR Technician.
REPORT-IN-BRIEF: Throughout the fall and winter of 2022/2023, County staff held
informal discussions with each of the eight (8) volunteer EMS companies, in reference to their
interest and consideration of voluntary transitioning their current EMS employees into County
employment. As of today, five of the eight EMS companies have expressed an interest in being
considered for such a transition.
DISCUSSION: Staff has developed a transition process that would begin the transition of the
current volunteer corporation career staff into County employment. Staff’s recommendation includes
transitioning the volunteer EMS corporation field and operations administrative career staff to
County employment; all of whom would be needed to manage the transition and ongoing needs
relative to personnel management and EMS billing.
It is recommended that Williamsport Volunteer Fire and EMS and Smithsburg Emergency Medical
Services, both of which have formally agreed to the proposed transition plan, be the first two
companies to transition staff to County employment. Employees of those Companies who agree to
move forward in the transfer would do so subject to the following requirements/conditions: complete a
County application for employment, complete/pass a background check, complete/pass a psychological
evaluation and complete/pass an EMS based physical abilities test. These processes are similar to
what the current DES field staff have completed prior to being hired by the County.
The anticipated cost for the transition is based on the actual current salaries of the employees of the
eight volunteer EMS companies. It is Staff’s recommendation that the County bring the
corporations’ EMS career staff into County employment at close to their current “hourly rate”. This
rate will be determined by using the hourly rate at their primary EMS employer. The volunteer
corporation employees would enter the County retirement/pension system, receive vacation accruals
and will be eligible to participate in all other County benefit packages as a new County employee
(first year).
Any past or current liabilities and/or obligations between the volunteer corporation and the volunteer
corporation employee shall remain the sole responsibility of the volunteer corporation. As the
transition of a volunteer EMS company’s career staff occurs, the County will no longer provide that
company with an EMS staffing subsidy, or a health insurance reimbursement and the County shall be
entitled to 80% of net EMS billing revenue.
The County will also begin preparations to transition EMS billing into a County-wide EMS billing
program within County Government. As the volunteer EMS corporations’ career EMS staff
transition to County employment, the County and the transitioning EMS Company will also begin
the process of transitioning their EMS billing into the County’s EMS billing program.
A specific MOU for use of the facility, apparatus and equipment that is owned by each of the volunteer
corporations will be finalized and executed between the County and the individual volunteer
corporation prior to the transition of any staff into County employment.
FISCAL IMPACT: $717,960.68 (first two companies, 1 HR Technician, 1 EMS Billing Specialist)
CONCURRENCES: Director of Emergency Services, Chief Financial Officer, County Administrator,
WCVFRA President, Williamsport Vol. Fire and EMS, Smithsburg Emergency
Medical Services.
