Upon the Fire <br />Department's being able to successfully obtain insurance <br />through the Leaque of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust, <br />which provires that each of the three cities be a named <br />insured our last hurdle relating to indemnification was <br />crossed and a contract was agreed to by the four parties. <br />This contract has been approved by the Fire Department's <br />Board of Directors and as you will note in the copy attached <br />with this memorandum signed by them. The three City <br />Councils are currently considerinq this contract and Staff <br />would recommend your approval of it. <br />For your information the f,lluwing changes are reflected in <br />this contract. <br />1. A reference in Article 1.3 has been added to refer <br />to the Fire Department's aqreeement with the Metro- <br />politan Airports Commission. <br />2. Article 2 has heen added to the contract to )utiine <br />the organization of the Fire Department and their <br />methods of operat'.on. <br />3. Article 3 has been added to the contract to addresF <br />the training standards to be met by the Fire <br />Department. <br />4. Article 4 has been revised to provide a new formula <br />for determining costs to be charged to the three <br />cities for their portion of the Fire Department's <br />services. This formula provides that each city's <br />cost will be determined by the average number of <br />fire calls during the past three years and the <br />city's current assessed valuation. <br />In the case of the City of Mounds View, this new <br />formula resulted in a $6,000 reduction in the city's <br />costs for fire protection services in 1986. <br />5.
