� �S.�EN^�HILLS MEMORANDUM DATE: June 11, 2012 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers FROM: Patrick Klaers, City Administrato/ SUBJECT: 2012 Capital Reimbursement to Lake Johanna Fire Department for Invoices #391 and #395 Back�round At the May 29, 2012 meeting, the City Council had some questions regarding two requests for capital expenditures from the Lake Johanna Fire Department (LJFD). I have talked with LJPD Fire Chief Tim Boehlke about the funding of capital expenses for the four iire stations. Tim told me that in the past, prior to three or four years ago, Arden Hills paid 100% oF the station 1 building capital expenses, and Shoreview paid 1 UO% of the station 3 and 4 building capital expenses, and that Shoreview and North Oaks split 50/50 the building capital expenses for station 2. However, this method of funding station capital expenses changed per Board action a few years ago and now all of the building-related capital expenses for all of the stations are split between the three cities. The building capital expenses are split on the same percentage basis as the operating budget. This pe.rcentage changes annually based on a formula that the Board has approved. Arden Hills's share of the total for 2012 is 26.9%. The share for Arden Hills was 28% in 2011. Council Action Requested Motion to approve payment in the amount of $9,639.73 to LJFD for the City's share of capital expenditures for chairs and the bay floor resurfacing.
