Mayor Woodburn stated Shoreview personnel drafted a provision which states if the LJVFD or the City fails to satisfy the requirements of their agreement a mediator may determine whether or not the level of service requested by Shoreview can reasonably be provided by the LJVFD for the budgeted amount. He further advised that the provision states the mediator may not approve, disapprove or modify the budget approved by the City of Shoreview for fire protection service.
