WS — Item 3 <br />WORK SESSION STAFF REPORT <br />Work Session Item 3 <br />Date: July 7, 2008 <br />To: City Council <br />From: Gordon Heitke <br />Re: Centennial Fire District Funding Formula <br />Background <br />At the June 2, 2008 Work Session, the council agreed to review the Centennial Fire <br />District funding formula, which determines the financial contribution of each city to the <br />Fire District's budget. The formula is established within the Joint Powers Agreement <br />which was entered into by the cities of Lino Lakes, Circle Pines, and Centerville in 1990. <br />The formula is comprised of the following factors: calls for service; population; and total <br />market value. The agreement states that when a member municipality contributes in <br />excess of 70% of the budget, that municipality may request the Steering Committee to <br />reevaluate the funding formula. The City of Lino Lakes is currently contributing 69 %. <br />Requested Council Direction <br />Staff is seeking any further direction from the Council. <br />Attachment(s) <br />1.
