And then one of the board members felt to help with rental costs, he thought the best would be an increase to help offset any property tax reform that could be coming.
Okay, thank you.
Just to add to what Chair Brown mentioned, I believe the context around the board member maybe wanting a decrease was that perhaps there was a feeling that it was premature to make an evaluation and assessment of the military at this point.
Great.
Thank you.
Thank you, Chair Brown.
Thank you for your work.
Commissioner Hertz.
Sure.
So when we're talking about the fire assessment fee going up to $444,000, again, I haven't seen the cost study that supports that.
So assuming when we're looking at this, what portion of the new fire stations that are being constructed goes into that increase up to $444,000?
444 REPRESENTS FULL COST RECOVERY FOR THE FIRE ASSESSMENT.
IT WILL GENERATE ABOUT $8.4 MILLION IN REVENUE, OF WHICH WE ANTICIPATE NEEDING ABOUT 7.8 FOR THE HOLIDAY PARK FIRE STATION.
OKAY.
SO I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE NOT CAPTURING ANY OF THE EMS COST IN THAT.
THAT'S ALL.
NO.
AND THE BOARD ALSO FELT THAT BY THE INCREASE, IT'S MORE TRANSPARENT TO THE TAXPAYER.
ON THE FIRE ASSESSMENT AND FULL COST RECOVERY.
AS YOU KNOW, THE OFFICIAL STUDY IS DONE EVERY THREE YEARS, BUT INTERNALLY THEY LOOK AT FULL COST RECOVERY EVERY YEAR.
