History of the MSTU- Fire

slide-11
SLIDE 11

Recent Insurance Services Office (ISO) Visit

11

  • ISO representative has requested updated Fire

Services Jurisdiction maps- staff is waiting for ISO definition

  • ISO visited several area Departments to verify

their staffing levels- must respond with minimum 4-person staffing to all fire responses

– Could result in ISO Class 10 if these departments are not able to comply

slide-12
SLIDE 12

Potential MSTU Millage reductions from Fire Assessment Implementation

12

  • Fire Rescue MSTU Expenditures: $14.653 mil
  • Assessable through a Fire Assessment is approximately

70%: $10.257 mil

– Eliminate MSTU-Fire saves $7.443 mil – Reduce PST, CST, Sales tax support by $2.814 mil

  • Shift PST, CST and Sales tax to unincorporated services

– Reduce Unincorporated MSTU millage from .6228 to .0243

  • Total millage reduction of 2.1492

(Fire MSTU- 1.5507 plus Unincorporated MSTU- .5985)

slide-13
SLIDE 13

Recommendations

13

  • Hold current agreements at current rates for

FY17

  • Direct staff to have a Special Assessment for

Fire Services study completed for implementation in FY18

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Alternate Recommendation

14

  • Option 1- Direct Staff to renegotiate

agreements and present millage increase requirements once completed

  • Option 2- no direction
