ATTORNEY'S REPORT Mr. Hawkins reported the fire Task Force met Thursday, February 2, 1984 and came to agreement on the areas that were discussed at the joint meeting a few weeks ago. He has just completed the revised draft of the Fire Agreement and hoped to have it to Mr. Schumacher this week and out to all the Cities for their approval at their first meeting in March. Regarding the El Rehbein lawsuit, the motions that have been filed by the City and the Plaintiff were argued in from of Judge Staley Thorpe last Firdayafternoon. This case is presently under advisement and when he has completed reviewing the nriefs that have been filed he will issue his decission on all the motions. Mayor Benson asked Mr. Hawkins for an update regarding the City's pre- sent Fire Contract. Mr. Hawkins said it appears the City will be able to come to an agreement on terminating that contract effective Jan.1, 1985. There will be a lot of work for the Task Force to do before the new Fire Department will be operational. The planned date for the combination of all Fire Departments is January 1, 1985. The budgeting, training, the establishment of the Fire Fighter's Releif Assn.. acquisition of any new equipment will be part of the activity that the Board will undertake once they are constituted and expect the Board to be effective probably as soon as the agreements are adopted by all parties. All the communities would have the responsibility of provid- ing fire fighting services until January 1, 1985. There were several members of the Task Force that wanted to get started earlier but once they were informed of all the things, the peeparatory work to be done before the department becomes functional, all were in agreement with this date. The Task Force intends to get in writing from the Lexington Fure Department the termination date agreement of January 1, 1985.
