/7 ,.,.," i /i .....' / 9 / . MEMORANDUM -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: March 6, 1987 To: Mayor and Council From: Nancy K. Hansen Re: Fire Board and Contract Issues -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 3/5/87 Up to last week, it was the assumption of all three city representatives and the Fire Department that a three-city fire contract would be drafted to meet the July 1, 1987 deadline. At the last meeting, the three representatives discussed having a three-city Council meeting to discuss level of service and level of financial commitment from each city. This meeting has been cancelled (you never found out about it) and the current thinking is that each city will draft a contract and set a budget with the Lake Johanna Fire Department. That means Arden Hills will need to agree on a contract and an amount that we will pay for fire protection. We will then need to establish a similar arrangement covering Station Four. (That will be shared with Shoreview.) Issues . 1. Do we want to continue on Station 41; if so, are we not going to participate with Station 2 (Highway 49) at all? 2. If we use Dave McGraw's (Council from Shoreview) idea, we will then pay 1007. of Station 1, 507. of Station 4, and none for the other stations. 3. What things do we want added to the contract? (I'll bring in former contracts. current one and the one drafted for Station 3.) 4. Should we have a work meeting to discuss issues and have the Fire Chief come to discuss some of his concerns, including how fighters respond, Le. the number of stations called when there is a fire alarm? 5. Should we continue participation with Station 3 until/after Number 4 is underway? .
