Streich, Fire Chi <br />Re: Proposed 2010 Budget <br />MEMO <br />You will find enclosed the 2010 Centennial Fire District Budget for each cities <br />consideration. The fire districts operation is supported by payments from the three cites, <br />as well as revenues from various charges for services. The Fire Steering Committee has <br />approved the proposed budget and fees and is recommending them to you. <br />The specific charges to be paid by each city in 2010 are shown below in comparison with <br />2009. <br />CENTERVILLE <br />CIRCLE PINES <br />LINO LAKES <br />2009 <br />2010 <br />2009 <br />2010 <br />2009 <br />2010 <br />$105,306 : <br />;112,753 <br />;140,688 <br />$143,045 <br />;596,452 <br />$585,645 <br />As presented to the Fire Steering Committee, the key drivers for the 2010 budget are to <br />provide compliant safety equipment and health screenings for our firefighters, increase <br />daytime emergency response personnel, and become compliant with State-OSHA and <br />FLSA rules. <br />Though there is an overall increase in the budget numbers, I have added "fees for service' <br />for a list of items in 2010. When implemented, these fees create a decrease in the budget <br />compared to 2009 The fees proposed are not uncommon to other cities_ in fact, fees are <br />a hot topictoday in the fire service. <br />According to the Joint Powers Agreement each city has until November 30, 2009 to <br />approve the 2010 budget. Such approval would include the recommended fee charges <br />that are shown on the revenue page. 1 would be happy to meet with each city to discuss <br />the budget further, if they so desire. <br />Enclosure; (1) 2010 Centennial Fire District.
