INTRODUCTION
The Anoka County Fire Protection Council (ACFPC) is made up of fire organizations from
Anoka County. The ACFPC has operated under bylaws but with no formal Joint Powers
Agreement (JPA). The ACFPC must now have a JPA between member cities in order to
become a legal entity with the ability to enter into legal contracts.
BACKGROUND
The ability of the ACFPC to become a legal entity and enter into contracts is necessary for the
implementation of the Anoka County Public Safety Data System. As part of the Anoka County
Public Safety Data System, the ACFPA must enter into contract with the vendor, FDM, for the
fire records management system.
The City of Lino Lakes has been represented by the Centennial Fire District prior to the
execution of this JPA. By entering into the JPA, the City of Lino Lakes would have full
membership in the ACFPC.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends Council approval of Resolution 14-155, Authorizing Participation in the
Anoka County Fire Protection Council Joint Powers Agreement.
