Villa llage ge Fire e Commi miss ssion ion & Bu Bunker nker Hill ll Differe rence nce of Opinion Background: • The Village Fire Department includes 6 Cities under an Interlocal Agreement (BHV 19%) • The Agreement outlines the Budget process: The Operating Budget is prepared by the Commission and each City must approve it by a majority; the Agreement does not allow the Commission or Cities to budget for future Capital Expenditures for Buildings/Facilities. An amendment is needed to accomplish this necessity. 2019 Budget: • The proposed 2019 Budget/ Assessment presented to each City included a $6.19M Operating Budget and a $3.5M Facilities Budget for improvements to the Fire Station • Bunker Hill approved the Operating Budget but did not approve the proposed Facilities Budget because it was not included in the Agreement and there was no plan, timeframe or detailed budget for the proposed renovations to the building • The Fire Commission removed BHV as a contracting City because BHV did not approve the Facilities Budget • Bunker Hill disagrees with the Commission and contends BHV remains a Contracting City - this is the dispute January 15, 2019 3
Resolution of Membership With the Village Fire Department Part 1. Bunker Hill Village wants to continue to be a part of the Village Fire Department: Bunker Hill has paid all disputed invoices in 2018. • Bunker Hill has since approved the Capital Budget and paid • the 2019 January invoice which includes Bunker Hill’s share of the renovation of the existing Fire Station. Bunker Hill will continue to make all 2019 payments January 15, 2019 Page 4
