RESOLUTION NO. 94-32 - A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE ANNUAL FEE FOR NONRESIDENT LIBRARY CARD, SENIOR NONRESIDENT CARD AND AMENDING THE FEE FOR OVERDUE BOOKS AT THE SPRINGFIELD PUBLIC LIBRARY. . . . June 20, 1994 Page 8 Library Director Bob Russell presented the staff report. He explained fee increases were submitted by the Library as part of the Springfield Tomorrow Phase III program. Mr. Russell stated it is estimated that these proposed changes will increase revenues by approximately $7,000 annually for the non-resident library card and $4,750 annually for overdue library materials. Councilor Maine was sensitive to raising fees, but did support the increases and felt the amount was minimal for the community service being received.

THE MOTION PASSED WITH A VOTE OF 6 FOR AND 0 AGAINST. 2. Amendment to the Fee Schedule for Ambulance and Emergency Medical Services. RESOLUTION NO. 94-33 - A RESOLUTION AMENDING THE SCHEDULE OF CHARGES FOR AMBULANCE AND EMERGENCY MEDICAL SERVICES BY THE CITY OF SPRINGFIELD. Deputy Chief John Garitz presented the staff report. He explained ambulance user fee rates are reviewed annually to insure that user fee revenue is adequate to support the operation of the EMS system, to stay current with Medicare reimbursement allowable amounts and to compare our rates with other cities with similar programs. He stated this proposal will increase the all inclusive base rate and mileage charges by five percent. If approved, the new rates, in conjunction with FireMed membership fees and other EMS revenue, will support the FY 1994-95 EMS Enterprise Budget. Mr. Garitz said ambulance billings would increase by an average of 5 percent effective July 1, 1994, and result in an after collection net revenue increase of approximately 2.1 percent. The difference between the gross billing increase and the net revenue increase is due to the time it takes for insurers' reimbursement profiles to reflect any increase in rates. He stated because insurers, especially Medicare, look at rates over a prior year before changing their reimbursement levels (revising their "usual and customary amount"), a rate increase won't be fully reflected for up to 24 months after a change. The proposed rate increase would increase revenue by an estimated $94,470 in the next 12 months. Mr. Garitz explained the proposed rates fall in the mid range of rates charged by other cities and private companies surveyed throughout the state. Mr. Garitz stated the first rate increase became effective June 1, 1993 and since that time, the medical Consumer Price Index has risen by 5.8 percent. The department offers FireMed ambulance membership as a voluntary alternative to ambulance user fees, and the membership fee is still $35 per year. In closing, Mr. Garitz said, the proposed rate increases are uniform with the city of Eugene's proposed ambulance rates. If adopted, the two cities would continue to charge identical user fee rates.
