BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS Yea Nay Abstain GRANT COUNTY, WASHINGTON El ❑ Richard Stevens, Chairman ATTEST: Tom Taylor, Vice Cklair Barbudra J. fjasqez Cindy Cart r, Member' Clerk of the Board Approved as to Form: Jim 'U'Kchell wsBA- #31031 Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Date: ��Z Page 2 of 2 Civil 8\Departments\Ordinances\2018 eg?slatiu�� Ni (:1-.�',-�Y,I am writing to request an amendment to Ordinance 03 -155 -CC due toges that 'Vtake effect September It 2018. It was recently brought to my attention that C)o I RCW 36,18.016 (25) and (26) outline the increased fees that may be set for arbitration effective September 1St - - subject to the fee increases being established by authority of a local ordinance. As a result of EIB 1128 (see attached), the Grant County Superior Court judges implemented new local rules with. regard to arbitration and those take effect September I st as well. LRMA 1. 1 and 1.2 allow arbitration for claims of $100,000 or less, which may cause a rise in arbitration filings (the previous level was $50,000). Copies of the new local rules are enclosed for your reference. I have also enclosed a copy of RC W 36.18,016 that shows the current language and the language that is effective September Is'. Also enclosed is a copy of the current ordinance for ease of reference. As outlined in RCW 36.18.016, 1 am requesting that the fee for civil/mandatory arbitration be increased from $220 to $250 ($220 to be used as it is currently and $30 for indigent defense services). I am also requesting that the fee for trial de novo of a civil arbitration award be increased from $250' to $400. Although the legislative changes are effective September 1st, I am not sure how quickly you can Implement this change. If you anticipate that it will be after September 11t, I would recommend an effectivd'te of January 1, 2019, to allow adequate e a notice to the bar association, unless you feel an earlier date is more appropriate 'so as not to miss out on potential revenue. Please advise if you need anything further from me. I appreciate your consideration.
