What I've heard communicated, albeit not terribly well, is that the RFA is forward-looking for the amount of growth we are having and will continue to accelerate. The problem with only looking at past performance is that it doesn't necessarily clue you in to falling off a cliff which sounds like the trajectory of the departments with how the call volumes have grown.
The biggest takeaway I've had over the past months is that there is inevitably going to be a cost increase, whether individually in both Tumwater and Olympia via a fire levy or by an RFA combining the two. The cost impact is coming, so we have to ask ourselves if combination will be the lesser of the two costs.
