4.3 POLICE PROTECTION
In 1996, the city began contracting with the Ada
County Sheriffs Office (ACSO) for enhanced law
enforcement services, including law enforcement,
code enforcement, and public safety services. While
a part of the Ada County Sheriff's office, the Eagle
Police Department maintains a unique identity and
connection to the City. The Eagle Police Department
is led by a Chief of Police and keeps an administrative
office and sub -station within the City. Jail and court
services are shared with Ada County. Eagle Police
officers can call on fellow Ada County Sheriffs
deputies working outside of Eagle for assistance
when necessary. The partnership between the City of
Eagle and the ACSO means the City has access to all

Crimes per 1,000 Residents Eagle
— Eagle 5yr Average =23.7
of the County's law enforcement resources without
the administrative costs of running a fully -
independent police department. Demographic and
economic conditions will have a tremendous
influence on the demand for police services.
The Eagle Police Department is committed to
providing the highest quality of police service with
crime prevention and problem -solving being of the
highest priority. The Eagle Police Department also
partners with the City to provide community building
engagement and education to our citizens. The Eagle
Police Department supports the mission of making
safer places to live, work, and play.
Eagle continues to have one of the lowest crime rates
in Southwest Idaho, despite steady population
growth over the last five years. A closer look at the
numbers shows a slight increase in the number of
crimes reported in 2015, along with a larger increase
in the number of crimes solved by arrest. While there
has been an increase in reported crime, our clearance
rate topped 50 percent for the first time in the last
five years.

In 2020, the City of Eagle and the Ada County Sheriff's office underwent a capital facility planning process in
accordance with Idaho Code 67-82 to identify the impact of growth on the provision of police services within the
City. The 2020 adopted Police Capital Improvements Plan (CIP) establishes a level of service of 0.71 officers per

CHAPTER 4: UTILITIES, FACILITIES & SERVICES
1,000 population and establishes the framework for a police impact fee commensurate with this level of service
(see the City of Eagle Police Department's Capital Impact Studv and Capital Improvement Plan).
4.3.1 POLICE PROTECTION GOAL

4.4 FIRE PROTECTION °.
Fire protection services are provided by independent
fire protection districts, not the City of Eagle. Based
on location, fire protections services are provided by
the Eagle Fire District, Star Fire District, and the
Meridian Joint Fire District, though the majority of the
City and Foothills are contained within the Eagle Fire
District boundary. The mission of the districts is to
provide diversified emergency services in a
competent and caring fashion with dedication
through progressive thinking, training, technology,
public education, and superior public service ensuring
a safe environment for the Eagle community today
and tomorrow. The City partners with the Eagle Fire
District for numerous events and community
education projects to ensure that the City is a safe
place to live, work, and play.
4.4.1 FIRE PROTECTION GOAL
The Eagle Fire District is the only fire protection
district to provide fire stations within the City limits.
The Eagle Fire District currently maintains a main
station, an administrative services office, and two
substations. The main station and administrative
services office are located in Downtown Eagle off
State Street and Plaza Drive. The substations are
located on Floating Feather Road at Horseshoe Bend
Road and on Linder Road at Clear Field Drive.
In 2020, the Eagle Fire Protection District underwent
a capital facility planning process in accordance with
Idaho Code 67-82 to identify the impact of growth
on the provision of fire services within the City and
the larger district. The 2018 adopted Fire CIP
establishes a level of service of 85 percent fractile
response time of 4-minutes and establishes the
frame work for a Fire Impact Fee commensurate
with this level of service (see the 2018 Eagle Fire
District Impact Fee Study and Capital Improvement
Plan).,
WORK COOPERATIVELY WITH FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICTS TO ENSURE THAT FIRE
PROTECTION SERVICES ARE ABLE TO MAINTAIN EXISTING LEVELS OF SERVICE AND
ACCOMMODATE THE INCREASING DEMANDS IMPOSED BY A GROWING
POPULATION AND NEW BUSINESSES.
4.4.2 OBJECTIVES
A. Work cooperatively with districts to ensure that fire stations, equipment, and trained fire and EMS
personnel are available to maximize effectiveness and minimize service response times.

CHAPTER 4: UTILITIES, FACILITIES & SERVICES
B. Ensure that needed resources are provided to respond to and mitigate all hazard risks to the community.
C. Engage fire protection providers in community design and development review to ensure that the built
community is developed to appropriate public safety standards.
4.4.3 IMPLIMENTATION STRATEGIES
A. Work with the school districts, land owners, developers, and the City to fund site acquisition and
construction of fire stations.
B. Communicate with neighboring emergency service providers to coordinate the location of facilities to
enhance each other's capabilities.
C. Work with the City and developers on standards that increase a building's ability to withstand
wildfires.
D. Work with other City, County, State, and Federal agencies to mitigate all hazard risks.
E. Encourage and support ongoing employee training and community education.
F. Implement the adopted level of service for fire protection within the City of Eagle and enforce the
collection of Eagle Fire District Impact Fees as determined by the Eagle Fire District Impact Fee Studv
and Capital Improvement Plan.
