3.
Agreement for Fire Services.
Assistant City Manager Gino Grimaldi presented the staff report on this
issue. The city of Springfield uses delayed effective date annexations for
new development outside of the city limits in order to increase the city's
tax base. An increase in the tax base is desired in order to provide a
portion of the revenue needed to provide city services to the annexed
areas. When delayed effective date annexations take place in areas that
are not in a district that provides fire services, the proposed contract
would guarantee these areas receive fire services.
The proposed agreement will be between the city and the developer of the
property to be annexed. The developer will be required to sign the
agreement in order to proceed with the development. Once the agreement is
signed the obligation to pay the contract amount is tied to the property.
Failure to make payment will result in a lien on the property and
ultimately foreclosure proceedings.
Payment for services is established at a cost of $1,000 of value and is
equivalent to the cost per $1,000 that current city residents pay for fire
services.
Council discussed the proposed agreement for fire services.
IT WAS MOVED BY COUNCILOR BURGE, WITH A SECOND BY COUNCILOR SHAVER, TO
AUTHORIZE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE AGREEMENTS FOR FIRE SERVICES WITH
DEVELOPERS OF DEVELOPMENTS WHICH ARE ANNEXED USING THE DELAYED EFFECTIVE
DATE ANNEXATIONS METHOD. THE MOTION PASSED WITH A VOTE OF 6 FOR AND 0
AGAINST.
