CITY OF SHAKOPEE
Memorandum
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Mark McNeill, City Administrator UN
SUBJECT: Establish Workshop Date -Fire Issues
DATE: September 6, 2011
Comment:
Introduction:
The City Council is asked to establish a workshop meeting for Wednesday, November
9th, to talk about issues relating to the Fire Department.
Background:
As part of the budget discussions for FY 2012, a number of issues have been raised
regarding fire, which need to be resolved. Among those are:
1. Funding of Fire Station #3
A. Initial Capital Cost
B. Ongoing Staffing/Equiping Costs
2. Duty Crew Discussion
3. Fire Compensation Issues
4. Provision of Fire Services to Adjacent Townships
5. Other issues
We anticipate that these issues will warrant an entire workshop meeting.
Recommendation:
Attached are calendars for October and November. Because of the amount of research
which will be needed completed prior to the meeting, we do not anticipate this being
ready in September or October. Staff therefore recommends Wednesday, November 9th
for the meeting.
Relationship to Visioning:
This supports Goal B— Positively manage the challenges and opportunities presented by
growth, common development, and change.
Action Required:
If the Council concurs, it should, by motion, set a special workshop to discuss Fire
Department issues to be held Wednesday, November 9 2011 at 7:00 pm, in the City
Council Chambers.
