Special Board of Aldermen Public Hearing — 01/27/2020 Page 3
Mr. Griffin
John Griffin, CFO that is correct. Whoever comes up with the Fire Department may be able to add a little bit more,
but it’s, | believe, a 10-year agreement with AMR where the $350,000.00 is for the initial year. It increases each year
thereafter so what this will do is have a place for the revenue to come in, whatever the amount is and maintain with
the Fire Department Budget for transparency purposes, the cost associated with the dispatching operation. It is not
meant to be a one-for-one, it’s not meant to cover the entire cost of dispatching, but it was a very good effort on the
part of the Fire Department to negotiate with AMR through a bidding process to come up with this particular funding
stream.
Alderman Jette
