Dori Parker, Member Iredell County ]!ire Tax District Board ATTACHMENT C Proposal to the Iredell County Fire Commission The following proposal is our idea concerning the cost and operation of the fire service of Iredell County. We believe it to be a way to assure that all taxpayers in Iredell County receive as closely as possible the same level of fire protection. This we believe should be the goal of the Fire Commission and the Fire Departments. We propose that a committee consisting of one Chief Officer from each department listed below, as well as one person appointed by the Fire Commission, work together to establish a uniform set of standards and guidelines for all Iredell County Fire Departments that receive tax funding from the citizens of this county. Those departments are Central, Cool Springs, Ebenezer, Harmony, Union Grove, West Iredell, Trinity, Monticello, Wayside, Troutman, Shepherds, Lake Norman, South Iredell, Mount Mourne. This committee will address the following, but are not limited to these areas alone. Fire Apparatus- cost, construction of, type of, this will include pumpers, tankers, brush units, aerials, service units. This is to set a minimum standard for each type of unit.
