Budget Considerations
Budget enhancements include an increase for up to 3% employee merit increases and an anticipated increase in health insurance premiums. The 2021 budget did not include an adjustment to the structure of the compensation plan. The Fire Equipment Fund included up to $8,400 City matching contributions for a federal air pack equipment grant that, if awarded, could include federal aid of up to $230,000. The 2021 budget also includes a $34,693 annual debt service payment to pay for the fire engine pumper purchased in 2018, which had an estimated total cost of $300,449 after the trade in of an older pumper. The debt service payment will be made out of the Fire Equipment Fund for a period of 8 more years, but the funding allocation is shown on the Debt Service budget book page and not in the Fire Department's operating budget. The 2021 budget also includes the continued allocation of $10,000 per year to replace Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), to be paid for out of the Equipment fund, and other grant matching amounts as approved by the City Council.
