Dear Dali,
First and foremost, let me thank you for taking time from your
busy schedule to meet with me and my staff on June 4, 1980.
As was discussed in that meeting, regarding fire and paramedic
services, it is my intention to propose to the Orange County Board
of Supervisors that the Fiscal Year 1980-81 price to the City of
Tustin be an estimated $806,000. The estimated amount includes the
cost for Stations 21 and 37 engines, paramedic, and partial share
of a Truck Company. It also includes partial cost of a Battalion
Chief, Fire Prevention Bureau and the Fire Suppression Volunteers
as well as services and supplies for the Stations. It does not
reflect any charge for the ECC, departmental overhead, or back-up
support from Fire Stations 8, 26, and 28.
This amount is the same as was charged for the present fiscal year, and is
justified by a revised manning level of 3.0 to 2.5, as well as the
County policy to staff all engines with three post positions. In
the event a contract City desires an increased level of fire or
rescue service, the City must accept an appropriate additional charge
for such service.
The Orange County Fire Department, in conjunction with the County
Administrative Office, (Management Services Division) is presently
conducting an in-depth study to determine actual costs for fire
services by station, city, and/or Battalion area. Upon completion of
this study, the County and the City will enter into negotiations to
determine the methodology for future years cost of service.
