[0:04] I appreciate our everybody who's in attendance tonight. It is April 16th, 2026. We're going into our work session. Starting out tonight, we have myself, Chair Wiggle, Megan Redfield, Brian Vincent, Annette Judd, Ricky Carrassa, and her total work.
[0:30] First of all, Jerry Chattichet is an excuse tonight and possibly a mere shepherd, and board
[0:39] number smiling will be attending the Intermediate Helper.
[0:43] We'll go in and get started for
[0:50] the agenautos, which is the badge painting for the new Junkies
[0:54] Fireflies.
[0:56] Okay, yeah, with that pertin to come under the mask.
[1:00] First off, thank you. This is awesome to see so many people here just before you
[1:06] guys so take a look around. These are the people that matter. So we appreciate you guys
[1:12] Kevin, but tuck your hands and Anthony Hernandez and his mic. He's pulling. So we'll hang
[1:29] If none of you have the background between this oath, I'm chiefly crafted.
[1:35] We take this seriously like our employees and our firefighters, they have worked hard.
[1:44] They're certified, they've trained.
[1:47] But most of all, it is honor to serve the community and help the community and we know that
[1:54] If everybody gets paid a paycheck and everything, you have to do that, but this is more than
[2:01] that.
[2:01] We swear an oath to the community and the people that we serve and we live by that.
[2:07] And so tonight, that's really important and we take that serious here, although just
[2:13] by signing up and taking the job, they do that.
[2:16] This is just one more step behind the badge that we honor.
[2:23] and so it is a big deal. We're excited to have these new members as part of our
[2:29] team, we're a brotherhood, and we all live by that, so I think his mic here now
[2:48] we're lost the others to come up and he should be right in there he is mic
[2:51] All right, come on up, please start now.
[2:56] All right, we're here, sorry.
[2:58] Where do you want me to stand?
[2:59] Right here, okay.
[3:00] With the other side.
[3:03] Anthony, you guys want to come up as well?
[3:15] So we'll squirm in and then they're,
[3:18] whoever they have chosen, the pinnacle will come up
[3:20] and pin the badge on them.
[3:22] That's how they do the ceremony.
[3:23] So, before I ask where you are, you have to move.
[3:31] You're
[3:39] pretty great, Ryan.
[3:42] I do so always where it is a firefighter of the North Davis Fire District.
[3:47] I just want to ask where the North Davis Fire District is.
[3:51] I will obey and defend the Constitution of the United States.
[3:56] I will obey and defend the Constitution of the United States.
[4:00] and the Constitution of the State of Utah and respect the property rights and
[4:07] mothers respect for our property and the rest of us. I will fulfill my fundamental
[4:13] duty to serve mankind,
[4:21] to safeguard life and property against all the adverse
[4:26] effects of fire in the property of the adverse effects of fire.

[4:45] the policies and procedures of the North Davis Fire District, and the standards of my profession,
[4:50] and the standards of my profession.
[4:52] I will not allow my personal feelings, preferences or prejudices,
[5:03] to determine the performance of my duties.
[5:08] I recognize the badge of my profession as a symbol of public faith, and I accept as a public trust.
[5:23] to be held so long as I am true to the ethics of the fire service, to be held so long as I am true to the fire service.
[5:33] I am obligated to be courteous. I am obligated to be courteous.

[5:46] And my fellow members of the North Davis Fire District, my members as a North Davis Fire District, I will perform my duties and responsibilities with fidelity and shall reflect the pride of the North Davis Fire District.
[6:06] So help me go ahead
[6:20] and come up.
[6:21] Whoever, it's pinnacle.
[6:24] And the angels.
[6:25] Boy, introduce your pinnacle, please.
[6:27] This is my wife, Audrey.
[6:29] Hi.
[6:30] This is my mom, Dipsy.
[6:31] Hi.
[6:32] Hi, Dipsy.
[6:40] Oh, yeah.
[6:48] I forgot to come on.
[7:08] Hi, Dipsy.
[7:09] Hi, Dipsy.
[7:11] Well, the way Jamie went to get his badge and things back,
[7:16] because he had time to get it again, so we would like it.
[7:20] Just want to tell you guys, this family, we're super excited
[7:23] I'm excited to have these three individuals with us.
[7:26] Every one of them did a great job in their interview.
[7:29] That's why they're standing here today.
[7:31] We're super happy to have each of them.
[7:34] We're excited for what they're going to do
[7:35] in the district.
[7:37] So, I'll
[7:42] be moving on to the next one.
[7:44] I'll be moving on to the next one.
[7:46] We've got some shirt.
[7:47] Thank you.
[7:48] It's been nice.
[7:49] Yeah.
[7:54] Yeah.
[7:55] I'll be moving on to the next one.
[7:57] Yeah.
[7:57] I'll be moving on to the next one.
[8:01] Thank you.
[8:55] As we do in the interview process and in the hiring process, they're automatically
[9:01] a part of our family and their family is a part of our family, so we're a brotherhood
[9:07] and that's how we look at things and we have each other's back.
[9:14] And we want you to know that we're looking out for your local ones when we're on duty.
[9:46] So we're going to allow you guys time if you want to do pictures, we like to take a picture with them over here by the flag
[9:52] family, whatever will allow time for all of that and then when you're down with that you guys are more than welcome this day, or you guys can take off and go celebrate something you guys missed.
[11:13] Oh
[11:55] I don't know about the violence that's going on.
[12:09] I don't know about the violence that's going on.
[12:18] Ah, the rest of the, uh, I'll smoke through the rest pretty quick.
[13:21] You should tell her.
[13:30] He's not old enough to buy that.
[13:38] Did you get that word, Mr?
[15:52] We'll go ahead and get started with the rest of our meeting, if you guys agree with this.
[16:11] I'll make it quick so we've been hard to work with the Budget Committee and run the numbers behind the scenes everything I can say is looking really good to the board which is this really good
[16:25] good news. We're very fortunate. From our projections and our tentative budget that we're
[16:33] building, the board of course we'll see. There's not a lot of huge changes. There are a
[16:38] few, the staffing changes that we have proposed for the last three years, and then also the
[16:43] direction with the emergency manager position. But on all, it looks like right now with about,
[16:51] and I think the budget committee would agree, about 98 percent, we're going to be able to bring the board a balanced tentative budget next month to recommend passing, actually, which is great.
[17:08] So next month, if it's okay with the board, we'll have of course your future packet next month with the tentative budget, which looks like it's going to be the final one as well.
[17:19] but we'll hit line items real quick through it, we won't go through it, we'll
[17:28] discover the major changes with the board if that's acceptable, and it looks
[17:32] like we're going to be able to balance that budget. Any questions on the
[17:37] tentative budget or anything? And by the way, just so the board knows if anybody
[17:42] wanted to meet separately before next month with me to go over anything or any
[17:48] changes in it, be more than happy to do that. So the budget committee, the budget committee
[17:54] will meet me meeting one more time prior to that. But the next thing, the local agreement
[18:04] and the extension of Maita Falcon, just an update for the board, I've been working with
[18:09] Mike Langs' off on the sunset section, but then when we got looking at it, because they
[18:17] We want us to cover that row section where the museum is, that's in a different county.
[18:23] So we can't annex that.
[18:26] Well, Dario Tree says it's too hard to jump through those hoops, and we'll be annexing
[18:30] something from a different county into our district.
[18:33] So they thought the best way to do it is to enter NMOU.
[18:38] And so they're drafting that MOU and ask for figures for us, we're actually just going
[18:44] get paid, which that's even better. Chief King ran stats just with the section of
[18:52] mine that we serve right now. The prior year we ran it calls last year we
[18:58] ran 10. I suppose one day when Sunset's fully developed, whatever goes in
[19:06] there, those numbers will be probably about the same. So we're not looking at a
[19:11] huge and then also in that MOU it will include our impact and user fee like you
[19:20] know inspection fees and all that so that will be coming probably next month
[19:27] maybe a draft of that MOU to the board. At the same time simultaneously the
[19:35] The county, Davis County is drafting the MOU for us to cover this whole west area for
[19:42] a year, and if you remember right, we're going to do that for a year.
[19:47] I don't think there's going to even really be any dollars attached to it, maybe a little
[19:51] bit, but then after that year, and by state statute, the district will annex that whole area
[19:58] into their service area.
[19:59] So, and the counties on board with it, they want that, so that would be good.
[20:06] But just so you know, in this tentative budget, we didn't budget any tax revenue from any
[20:15] of this, we'll wait till it happens, and then go, then the emergency management director
[20:25] As the board members last year, or I mean last meeting, I had got marching orders to put
[20:32] that in our budget and to meet with city managers and city officials to see what that
[20:38] look like and how it penciled out.
[20:42] Since then, I've met with them, the city managers and sunset cities representative, and I've
[20:52] talk to the chair and the mayor's too because this is kind of a mix thing but that director
[21:01] position is included in the tentative budget that you're going to see next and we've been
[21:07] able to balance this budget with that with that director's budget position in there which
[21:15] which is great. So, that's the update on the emergency manager director. Now, I guess
[21:22] maybe what I should ask is, does anybody have any questions about that or anything?
[21:30] I did a presentation for sunset. I went to sunset city's council meeting. They have
[21:36] a staff meeting there. So, I did present to their council while I was there and they were
[21:44] questions they they thought it was great so I haven't been asked by any of the
[21:50] other cities to do that or and maybe I won't I don't know but right
[22:00] here in the
[22:01] other top of the city
[22:05] emergency there
[22:09] were a district the waste district has
[22:12] asked that you include them in the emergency training like today was the
[22:16] great Utah shakeout for their earthquake training so if you could when we do
[22:22] those trainings if you could add them into the fold, that way we can all kind of get on the
[22:28] same page in the event of emergency. So that's great. You're exactly, yes we will, not only that,
[22:35] but we're going to be involving public works, your public works teams, they've got to be on board with
[22:41] the drinking water and all of that stuff. So they're going to be a direct liaison management of your
[22:50] cities. Now, that being said, I use Sunset City as an example because they've had a
[22:59] appointed councilwoman to be that liaison. So, what I foresee with West Point and
[23:08] Clearfield, let's just say hypothetically, we're going to start a cert program for
[23:14] the district. That's all three cities. We're going to coordinate that or whatever,
[23:20] but there's going to be a contact liaison person at the city that helps mesh that program
[23:27] together. But yes, so does that answer your question, Councilor? Okay.
[23:35] That's all I,
[23:37] any other questions?
[23:45] No, sir. If not, then we will move into our Board of Trustees, a regular
[23:50] session. It is 6.30. Again in April 16th, 2026. In attendance tonight we have myself,
[24:02] Mayor Rathford, Ryan Vincent, and that's Doug, the composer, and to go to work online.
[24:10] I believe we have Mark Shepard? Yes. And we're members smalling.
[24:19] You tonight is
[24:19] work on the charter team. The first thing on our agenda is invocation and
[24:25] inspirational thought and I'm not sure if we have somebody who's the big winner
[24:30] for that tonight as anyone who stepped up to provide that for us this evening.
[24:35] I'm looking at life. I don't remember what mine is so this is
[25:02] I appreciate it very much.
[25:06] We're having a lot of thankful for this day,
[25:08] I think from many blessings.
[25:09] We're grateful that we're able to be together,
[25:11] the fire district, to talk about business,
[25:14] less than we can have the spirit to be with us
[25:15] and make our decisions.
[25:17] And bless all those that support for the district
[25:19] that will be safe.
[25:20] These things are great for the image of Jesus Christ.
[25:22] Amen.
[25:25] I'd like to let you just do the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic
[25:32] for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
[25:51] Thank you for your assistance with that tonight obviously I don't see anybody in the
[25:58] as someone of the Department
[26:01] would like to make a public comment.
[26:03] That would be a doubt.
[26:04] Not that we do pass that.
[26:06] We'll move right into consideration approval.
[26:10] The Northlanders Fire District's Board of Justice meetings
[26:13] from the meeting from March of 2026.
[26:19] We already have any questions or concerns
[26:21] about the minutes from that meeting.
[26:23] That I can use the motion.
[26:25] I move to approve the minutes from the March 226 meeting.
[26:28] I have a motion from Gordon to work to add a second.
[26:32] I have a second by Gordon and Rick for all of the things that I can do.
[26:40] Next, the only agenda would be the consideration approval of the North Campus by district bills.
[26:45] Although, they appear by scary as everybody had an opportunity to review those bills.
[26:51] Yes.
[26:53] So, do you have no questions or concerns?
[26:55] I do have questions.
[26:59] Okay, so for the property tax, if they're like negatives in the revenues category, for 2024,
[27:07] can you tell me what's going on in 2021, I think you got a payment.
[27:13] So what happens here is, and I can't really tell you what's going on in the property tax
[27:19] periodically, they come back and say, oh, we overhear you, you need to pay back.
[27:23] so they would hold that negative amount and what they would disperse to us that month.
[27:29] Does that affect the budget that we're looking at for $20, $27 like the revenues?
[27:36] No, we never really know. Some years we don't hand anything back, other years it's $20,000 here.
[27:42] Which may I, that's, it's funny that you asked that because that's an anomaly in Davis County.
[27:48] with our district, too.
[27:51] Misty had that question down in St. George
[27:55] and she was actually running through our taxes
[27:58] with the State Tax Commission
[28:00] and they're like, they take money back from you.
[28:05] The only reason that I think
[28:09] can possibly make us a little bit different
[28:11] than everybody else is the personal property tax
[28:15] that we have in the Freeport Center
[28:19] and how it gets paid. I guess. But for 10 years nobody has ever been able to
[28:25] really. So do they tell you what they have repeated on? How they have repeated?
[28:30] No, it just comes back under those categories. So it doesn't date on. There's not a call
[28:35] underneath and call that ask question. No. No. And the other thing.
[28:40] But also when they overpay or I shouldn't say overpay, when we collect
[28:46] to weigh more than what was supposed to. We don't have a reason for that either.
[28:50] Well, you wouldn't know why you overpaid or if you overpaid, if they're not giving you
[28:55] any detail of what? No, but I'm saying when, like at the year end, when we receive more
[29:01] than we budgeted, this is what we've been talking about. We don't know why. We got 300
[29:09] more thousand either. And they can't provide that. And they can't tell us why.
[29:15] Is it common for, is it common every year for here that they take money back, not every year?
[29:21] Not every year.
[29:22] So there's no way that you would plan.
[29:25] Like there's no way they're going to ever take $50,000.
[29:29] I don't dare.
[29:31] No, like you really don't know.
[29:33] I mean like last year we returned $1.7 billion, right?
[29:38] That's pretty good.
[29:39] That's a pretty good chunk of change.
[29:41] Yeah, and so you look at that and then you said to me, well now they were paid at some
[29:45] mileage and now $40,000 back or whatever, but I think it goes through, you go through
[29:51] phases and you see a little bit here and there, if you go through every
[29:54] line line of every month, there's usually a negative here or there in different areas, so
[29:59] This is
[30:00] And I think that part of that, and we talked about this is, you know, they'll say to us, the district had 2% growth. And I'm not really clear for that 3500 more units in it over the last five years. And it's only 2%. But yet, then we collect more. Like I, I think we can, we can never get a direct answer from the tax commission.
[30:30] or the county. I've had board members go down there with me.
[30:37] The 2023 for many years, and it just seems that's three years.
[30:45] You can go through and you can pull these reports for every month.
[30:52] And I hate to do this, say this, but like one year they may just pay back like 300,000.
[30:58] But then we receive way more the next year.
[31:01] I mean, it's just bizarre the way it works.
[31:03] Some years you don't get anything.
[31:06] It's been more stable the last four years
[31:08] than it has been in the entire 11,
[31:11] almost to the years that I've been here.
[31:14] So we have entries for 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025,
[31:21] 2026.
[31:22] 21, why all in one month?
[31:26] Well, some number delinquencies.
[31:27] Yeah, but I mean is this is this like a sure month or what every month. Oh, yeah, I'm sorry. Yeah, every month
[31:47] And I and I believe and and the fear is a moving target to
[31:57] That that's summer listed as real estate summer listed as personal business
[32:02] Yeah, I wasn't sure that and it's the way it's pulled up on the report and the way they itemize it out to break it out for us
[32:09] Decoding you're probably familiar with the state. I'm sorry. I am. This is such a it's a complex and very nuanced conversation
[32:18] Yeah, I mean
[32:20] With you offline
[32:22] We'll spend a certain amount of time talking
[32:26] There's a lot of mechanisms that property owners have to rather get refunds or executions
[32:32] on their property taxes that brings a role into this on the hardship based on disability
[32:37] and the appeal and the valuation that there's a lot of components that affect it.
[32:42] So they give those money back to the resident then, so like 13,000 went back to the resident
[32:47] or just the credit?
[32:48] Well, that sounds crazy. You don't ever think that happened.
[32:52] But yeah, both of them.
[32:56] But I always see them check through.
[32:59] It is really convoluted.
[33:03] And to try and get a grip around it, which I've actually
[33:08] not changed in the subject, but I feel really sorry for the taxpayers.
[33:11] For them to understand it, it would be almost impossible.
[33:18] But it's kind of a slippery slope, so basically at the end of the day, with revenues and debts, the state says average them, and then you're within statute.
[33:36] So that's what we do.
[33:40] Does that help, Megan?
[33:40] Good.
[33:41] As clear as mine.
[33:43] Good
[33:46] question, sir.
[33:47] Consumers about this.
[33:51] Do you see none?
[33:54] I'm going to make a motion to approve the bill's.
[33:59] A motion by...
[34:07] You're not wrong.
[34:08] Board of members yet.
[34:09] Second by Board of members.
[34:11] All in favor.
[34:12] Hi.
[34:21] This is the consideration approval of the North Campus Fire District financial report.
[34:27] Chief.
[34:28] Yeah, it's a stick.
[34:30] So we're on target.
[34:31] Everything's on target.
[34:33] Looking good. When I look at this, we met with first professional yesterday. We're on target,
[34:41] on budget this year. And we also talked to them in depth about our tentative budget and
[34:47] what we should be budgeting in our tentative budget, and then came up with a really conservative,
[34:52] good number as far as ambulance revenue. So here, Megan, here's a good example.
[34:57] If you look at property taxes, we're at 98.4, 1% and we're in April.
[35:08] We've almost collected what we budgeted already.
[35:13] So if you go off of our past, we're going to collect way more in property taxes this year than we budgeted.
[35:23] And they're not going to tell us why.
[35:26] They're going to take it back. No, they're not. No, they're not. They're not.
[35:32] It's 2021 through 26 and then we're talking hundreds of thousands of dollars. Yeah, that's what yeah, no.
[35:43] So I just want to point that out to you. So it just moves. But anyway, as far as the financial
[35:51] scope, we're on target. We're looking good. Another thing that always jumps out. I mean, I take
[35:56] a good look at us wages and where we're at with wages and we're on target with wages.
[36:04] So we're actually moving along pretty good with our financials.
[36:09] So does anybody have any questions about them?
[36:12] So our being fully staffed has taken down a number of over 10 hours that we're driving.
[36:19] Would that be a good statement?
[36:21] Yes and the fact that we in the past incurred you can chime in on this but we've had people
[36:29] out on workmen's comp which if you if you have somebody out on workmen's comp for two
[36:34] or three or whatever months it just adds three months of overtime which is just kills your
[36:39] overtime so we have that budgeted we have that latitude but right now we're tracking
[36:47] we haven't had to use that yeah and so if we if sometimes if we we have minimum
[36:55] manning if we're minimum manning we don't pay overtime we run which in next
[37:03] year's budget with the hiring of those three more employees will make that
[37:07] even better because we're not changing our minimum manning and that should be
[37:13] less and less would we say yeah the the minimum will actually go up one but we're
[37:19] not allowing more leave slots so our minimum will be one one more person and
[37:27] then we won't allow we allow two people off and that's all we'll allow still
[37:31] so and that still gives them plenty of time to take off but that does give us
[37:38] the latitude. I saved minimum loosely because if there was a third person we chose not to
[37:44] fill with overtime we still could and we still operate we believe pending it being a long-term
[37:51] person being out on workman's comp or something like that so.
[37:55] Any other questions or concerns about the financial report?
[37:59] Yeah one I'm sorry you may have said this. You said you talked to the federal ambulance
[38:04] Yeah.
[38:08] We're drilling through back, right?
[38:11] Yeah.
[38:11] So we collect annual ones.
[38:13] It will go back.
[38:17] Because we reverse out about 400,000.
[38:20] This is a tiny.
[38:21] So yeah.
[38:22] A lot of times.
[38:22] So I could.
[38:23] So we collect up through the end of August plus a part of September will go back into the
[38:27] issue.
[38:29] What you're talking hundreds of thousands of dollars but they we did it two ways it doesn't matter either way we can either not journal into it back and it looks really good throughout the year or we can journal it back which we did.
[38:45] Wait until about this time of the year journal entry of that so that we can get ready for the end of the audit, the audit for the end of the year.
[38:52] Yeah, because the August, August and September, July, August, September, ambulance bills are for June service.
[39:03] They go back.
[39:13] And it's on target, that's on target this year, and we've been watching that close, because
[39:20] you know how, you know,
[39:27] the other questions are concerned, seeing that I can use a motion
[40:01] I just have a couple and then I'll turn some time over to Kurt and so our procurement policy doesn't require it doesn't require me to do this but I feel better
[40:11] when I do, I've sold the 2007 Spartan Crimson engine. This is the engine that's scheduled
[40:25] to be sold because we're getting a new ladder truck.
[40:30] By the procurement code, it does not
[40:33] have to go to auction if we sell it to another agency, which I really have a history of
[40:39] I like doing. I like helping somebody else in Utah and not rip them off or whatever.
[40:46] Does he have 13 engine?
[40:50] Yes. And it's a good engine and we're going to sell it to Paragona. I call Pierce our
[40:59] fire truck guy and got a rough estimate of how much it's worth. It's pennies on the
[41:03] dollar for those but it's still better than sending it to auction.
[41:08] We've taken care of it, and it will serve their community well, and that magic number
[41:14] was $15,000, and some of the ladders and some of the equipment, when you sell an engine,
[41:23] you sell that with it, that you include that.
[41:27] But we're selling it to Paragon, they had our last engine, which is going to the Canarville
[41:34] or something.
[41:34] Yeah. I don't know. I mean, if we sent that down to TNT, we'd get nothing. They don't
[41:49] really, you know.
[41:50] And I, too, feel that it's a
[41:57] sense I had the required apartment.
[41:59] We've got some things from, you know, to help for some of the shrouded communities.
[42:04] And I was always a big deal.
[42:05] So, yeah.
[42:06] I love support.
[42:07] Well, I'm not a big brother.
[42:09] Here's a good example.
[42:10] Well, was it a couple of years ago?
[42:13] Chair, I think we gave Sunset an old ambulance we had for their water.
[42:19] Or something.
[42:20] Well, yeah.
[42:23] What I'm saying is that that's one of the communities we serve, but why not?
[42:30] I think you and we were very grateful.
[42:33] We gave the last point.
[42:34] That's why I don't really support it.
[42:36] A generator, I don't know if they're using it yet.
[42:38] They're not using it yet.
[42:42] No, for
[42:45] your new shops or something?
[42:46] The sit-out that we donated.
[43:01] We're doing that transaction and then also, this is kind of a head nod.
[43:06] You don't have to vote on it, but going into our tentative budget with a balanced budget,
[43:13] our timing on our insurance, I usually have to get kind of a head nod from the board
[43:17] to go ahead and move forward with a sign-up.
[43:22] Open enrollment.
[43:23] Open enrollment.
[43:24] It may end like the 23rd and May.
[43:26] That would be, by the time you are made meeting,
[43:29] it's going to be the good days of the deadline for our employees.
[43:32] So we're meeting a headnotch in the board to say,
[43:36] go ahead and enter into this and then allow me.
[43:42] Which we've done in the past, but we just, it's timing on it.
[43:47] So when your question concerns about that from anyone, that's all I have as far as, I would have to put it up.
[44:04] I just have connections, so I, because you could advertise and you could try to sell it to somebody or by procurement code,
[44:15] So I would have to put it up for auction, which we have at times put things up for auction.
[44:21] That's the only way I can do it, I can't.
[44:24] But if you're selling it to another entity, another fire department, you don't have to
[44:30] do that.
[44:31] So just from your connections you knew they needed one?
[44:33] Well, I know.
[44:34] Yeah, Roy Spartan is their fire chief.
[44:36] He sold me Angolances for 30 years.
[44:40] In fact, all the engine, the Becker, they are done using that, and so they're just very gracious, they're so excited, and he actually called me and took it to my council.
[44:57] They have proved me, I got it checked, I'm making absolute money.
[45:00] I'm like, well, do you remember Sunset's old international? Yep. I think we sold that area. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Otherwise, you can't. Otherwise, you have to, it has to go to auction. You can't. And here's won't give you nothing. Well, it's not like a vehicle. So how old is that engine anyway? 2007. That cost 250.
[45:28] 250? Well, they're 900 now.
[45:31] And it's going to say you can't buy anything for that, right?
[45:35] Then we thought we were getting to do our best.
[45:37] Yeah.
[45:40] Could it be insurance? Go down.
[45:42] If we solve the truck.
[45:45] Forgive it to another.
[45:47] It goes down a little bit, but it's going back up with the new truck.
[45:52] I'm not really going down.
[45:55] Because it goes down if the truck is new one.
[45:58] Because of the less liability or is that not?
[46:00] Yes.
[46:01] Well, if you just put your insurance for more, it's kind of a toss-up.
[46:07] Same way they're like when you buy a new car, it's a little bit more because it's a
[46:11] more expensive car.
[46:14] And you have a question or a concern from the Chief?
[46:17] It's not.
[46:18] Good.
[46:19] Okay.
[46:19] Yeah, I've got just a couple of stats to give to you guys, but for the month of March we ran
[46:26] a total of 340 calls.
[46:28] that was up about two calls from the other two months on average so things were
[46:38] definitely busy. We ran 254 calls in Clearfield. We ran four calls in Clinton.
[46:47] Ran seven in Layton.
[46:51] 39 calls in sunset. We went to Syracuse five times,
[46:57] went
[46:58] point we had 28 calls and then we went to Weber County twice so we were all over the
[47:06] place but with that call volume at a station 41 we ran a total of 74 incidents and at
[47:15] a station 42 they ran 266 incidents so they're definitely staying busy with that and then
[47:25] And as far as just updates on our employees, you saw a couple of it, the two gentlemen
[47:34] that were here on the right are one of them was hired full time for Ashley that moved
[47:40] to Carolina.
[47:42] One of the Carolina's, the team replaced her position the other ones part of time with the
[47:55] So that was kind of who those three are, as far as staffing, we're fully staffed right now.
[48:05] We do have one that may be leaving in a few months moving to Italy so we're aware of it.
[48:13] We're just kind of waiting. So I took a job in Italy so he came talk to Chief and I.
[48:18] So we're anticipating that but we'll be okay.
[48:21] Well, he's not, but he's leaving. He's not leaving because he loves the district. Yeah, you're just actually
[48:28] sitting on Steve when he moves back. He wants to come back to work here, so I told him he's going to be the
[48:37] tallest guy there, but aside from that, things are going really well with our staff.
[48:48] Nothing else to report.
[48:50] Thank you guys so much. That brings us to the part where we as communities can share our time
[48:58] for the ever-saving updates. We'd like to start.
[49:02] Mayor Vincent.
[49:05] Greg from Ford and me.
[49:10] Cruz being out for a drive time. That was fun.
[49:13] They got some cool shots. They accepted the ladder all the way up.
[49:17] That was cool. Took a picture up on the top of that.
[49:19] And a lot of comments like, wow, you didn't know
[49:21] how the guys had their drone out there.
[49:23] We didn't.
[49:26] I'm glad you're doing well, I appreciate you guys
[49:28] coming up with that.
[49:30] Not much going on.
[49:31] Otherwise, it'll be, it'll be,
[49:32] next year, it'll be a hundred and six feet
[49:34] instead of 75.
[49:35] Yeah, we'll be.
[49:43] So, the 388th Fighter Wing got the number one Air Force
[49:48] Fighter Wing in the, in the, I guess it would be
[49:52] the squadron.
[49:52] So, that was really interesting, there was an article on KSL and it pinpointed the areas
[50:00] that they got here were for, one of them was the one over two, my rock, so there are a
[50:06] grant, it isn't with the grant, okay, so that was interesting, we're going through budgets
[50:12] right now, trying to whittle down some of the extra areas that need attention, but we
[50:20] We have to refocus the financials, and it's all numbers this month, so anything else?
[50:27] And that's been about numbers.
[50:30] Numbers are great, but also cool things happen in this season.
[50:34] Should you give the math, if you're coming north, out on state street, there's a new mirror
[50:39] on clear show that is done, and some of the big, big, urban shopping.
[50:42] Oh, yeah, okay.
[50:43] And it suggests, which is cool, meaning it would prove funny for a new while, though,
[50:49] it's
[50:50] exciting. Get some renderings back yesterday.
[50:53] All of the buildings use it?
[50:55] Yeah.
[50:57] And then, I'll see you guys with the air show.
[51:00] Yeah.
[51:01] And there's been a delay to it.
[51:02] So, it's being canceled.
[51:05] It's canceled.
[51:06] It's being canceled.
[51:07] Okay, I was post-ponsed like June, 19, 2020, 1927.
[51:11] Oh, wait.
[51:11] So is it actually a success?
[51:13] I was.
[51:13] I was doing the central oldest.
[51:15] It's a great year.
[51:16] Nevermind.
[51:17] See you guys next year.
[51:18] Yeah.
[51:22] I'll bet the truth is, is that the funding, because of what's going on.
[51:27] The funding, as much as it is, the attention of, yeah, so right now most of the troops being deployed.
[51:34] Most of the resources are scattered.
[51:37] So they said that they need to focus in the areas.
[51:40] And plus it's a lot of risk right now with everything going on.
[51:49] Yeah, it's a little bit of a scary topic.
[51:51] Yeah, yeah.
[51:52] Yeah, we make it sound like it's a target.
[51:54] It's the assets, not the funding, because he'll think it's all sponsored.
[51:59] That's why they don't charge for their shows.
[52:02] That I didn't know.
[52:04] Anyone else having any ideas you'd like to share?
[52:09] And they could have gone on the Senate seat, so?
[52:11] No, no, no, no.
[52:24] We're going through a budget right now in Sunset and it looks like we're going to be able to balance the budget underneath Scott's great leadership.
[52:37] I do want to thank the Fire Department for supporting us during Easter.
[52:42] It was an awesome event.
[52:45] And having a seat shift there was amazing.
[52:48] Not only that, it kind of kind of rang a little bit.
[52:50] Anyone else get a seat shift, Joker's coming?
[52:54] This one did.
[52:55] And I was pretty excited about it.
[52:58] All my little social media page on the right and the guys gave me a point and I was very
[53:04] appreciative of that. It was a fun time. Great group of guys. I seem to mingle over the
[53:09] crowd, which is kind of what I would hope and expect that they would do to be a member
[53:15] of our community and so it was awesome to be a part of that. Just looking forward to a nice
[53:27] I'm not a numbers guy, so budget is a terrible time for me, but I'm certainly glad to have a great group, I hope I'll meet you with that.
[53:36] If nobody has anything else, I would make a most of the week for a trip.
[53:46] I have a motion from Board Member Eradford. Do I have a second?
[53:52] Second.
