UPDATE FROM COMMISSIONER WILLIAMS REGARDING THE FIRE
TAX DISTRICT BOARD: Commissioner Williams said the members of the fire tax
district board had been working on the volunteer fire departments' budgets for the
upcoming year. He said the members of the fire tax board were concerned about not
having a more equitable method to distribute the funding.
Finance Director Blumenstein said she felt a formula -based system would be an
improvement over the current method.
Commissioner Johnson suggested a method where the departments were paid on
the costs associated to operate the department and the number of calls.
Commissioner Williams asked who would determine the operational cost for each
department. Mr. Williams said he had been trying to develop a funding formula based on
(1) two cents on the tax base (2) a base allocation (flat rate for all departments) and
(3) the number of emergency responses.
