Summary

The City of Fort Bragg is a member of a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) known as the Fort Bragg Fire Protection District. The JPA Board recently voted to follow the approved "Engine Replacement Plan" and purchase a new water tender. The Fire Department has ordered a new tender with an "out the door" price of $210,500. The City's share of that cost is $88,275. The City has a "Fire Equipment Fund" that receives revenues from a parcel tax and is restricted to Fire Equipment purchases. The water tender is an eligible expense and the Fire Equipment Fund has sufficient fund balance to cover the expenditure. Council action is required to amend the City's FY 2015-16 Budget to appropriate the funds.
