9 WASHINGTON FIRE COMMISSIONERS ASSOCIATION December 19, 2018 TO: FROM: King County Fire s Association Kitsap County Fire s Association Pierce County Fire s Association Skagit County Fire s Association Snohomish/Island County Fire s Association Thurston County Fire s Association Roger Ferris, Executive Directory SUBJECT: County Fire s Association General Liability Insurance I have heard from the majority of you regarding my December 5 th memo informing you that the general liability insurance under the WFCA s policy would no longer be available to county associations effective January 1, It has become clear that we made a mistake in accepting Enduris s determination that the WFCA s relationship with county associations was insufficient to warrant continuation of coverage. I am in the process of discussing available options with Enduris to maintain the coverage under the WFCA general liability insurance policy. I am confident that we will be able to work out a satisfactory solution for county associations and I will keep you informed as we work through this process. Thank you. RF/ne LOCATION: James R.
