Budget Considerations
Budget enhancements include an increase for up to 5% employee merit increases and an anticipated increase in health insurance premiums. The 2022 budget did not include an adjustment to the structure of the compensation plan. The Fire Department budget includes the addition of a full time Firefighter position that was added mid- year in 2021 upon the conversion of the Deputy Chief position into an exempt position called the Deputy Fire Chief/Code Enforcement Officer. This adjusted position replaced the part time code enforcement officer originally approved in the 2020 budget. The 2022 budget includes the annual debt service payment to pay for the fire engine pumper purchased in 2018, which had an estimated total purchase 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 7 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 2022 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.
