BUDGET PRESEN'T'ATION FOR FIRE DEPARTMENT
CC -21(b)
Sped hwn
Mayor Pennino opened the meeting and reminded the audience
of the following guidelines for public input at the "Town
Hall" meetings.
"Specifically, the public is invited to tell the Ci_:,
Council:
1. What City services do you (the public) feel
could be reduced or eliminated?
2. What ideas do you have for making the City
more efficient?
3. What City services are you w.:lling to pay
more for in order to maintain them?
4. What City services are you UNWILLING to see
cut, no matter what?"
Mayor Pennino informed the public of the "Town Hall"
Hotline phone number, 333-6896.
Fire Chief Hughes presented an overview of the Fire
Department. Mr. Hughes covered four different sections:
Fire Department Organization, Fire Department Statistics,
Fire Department Budget Information, and Fire Department
Budget Reduction & Revenue Generation Concepts.
Following a lengthy discussion, questions were eirected to
Stan Mall in regards to the following memo he wrote to the
City Council:
t serve as the President of United Fire Fighters of Lodi.
Our organization is the line division of the fire
department. I am writing this letter to project and
alternative solution to save money in a tight budget year.
The money saving idea is being projected because the fire
department has lost on duty "hands on" fire fightars since
1977. We are a department that has suffered since
proposition thirteen passed. To prevent further cuts we
have a number of proposals for you. However, one proposal
needs expeditious presentation.
The propc3al is to consolidate the fire and police
department's top mnagement position until after the budget
crunch is no longer a problem. The position would become a
safety director position. The idea is timely for numerous
reasons.
There is a perception at the bottom of the
city employee group. That perception '_„

fringe benefits. Department head positions
are never cut.
2. This cost saving idea is about one hundered
thousand dollars per year.
3. There is a public concern being projected
about too many high paid managers within the
city (a timely response to this concern).
4. The current police 'chief is retiring soon.
A window of opportunity is opening with the retiring of the
police chief. It allows the City Council to project cost
savings to the public without taking jobs at the worker
level. No direct public services suffer as a result of the
move.
It also deals with the outcry from some citizens dealing
with too many high paid manager positions in the city
employment. Last but not least, there ib a manager in the
fire department that has served in another city as the city
manager.
Having filled that position more than qualifies him for the
Joint Safety Director position over two departments. The
professional staff of both departments are more than
qualified to fill in the gaps and assist this new appointee
for a temporary budget reduction period.
It is our intention to project other cost saving ideas at
the proposed Town Hall meetings. Each of our proposals
will deal with ideas that do not reduce emergency services
to the public. It would be irresponsible of our
organization to do otherwise in light of the economic
hardships our citizens are now facing.
If United Fire Fighters of Lodi, may be of further service,
please do not hesitate to ask."

I serve as the President of United Fire Fighters of
Lodi. Our organization is the line division of the fire
department. I am writing this letter to project an
alternative solution to save money in a tight budget year.
The money saving idea is being projected because the
fire department has lost on duty" hands on" fire fighters
since 1977. We are a oepartment t1.at has suffered since
proposition thirteen passed. To prevent further cuts we have
a number of proposals for you. However, one proposal needs
expeditious presentation.
The proposal is to consolidate the fire and police
department's top management position until after the budget
crunch is no longer a problem. The position would become a
safety director position. The idea is timely for numerous
reasons.
1. There is a perception at the bottom of the city
employee group. That perception is voiced ir, a fear
that cutting the budget always means cutting the workers
or their fringe oenefits. Department head positions are
never cut
2. This cost saving idea is about one hundred thousand
dollars per year.
3. There is a public concern being projected about too
many high paid managers within the city. (a timely
response to this concern)
4. The current police chief is retiring soon.
A window of opportunity is opening with the retiring of
the police chief. It al'ows the City Council to project cost
savings to the public without taking jobs at the worker

BUDGET REDUCTION &
REVENUE GENERATION
CONCEPTS
FIRE DEPARTMENT
BUDGET REDUCTION POSSIBILITIES
The Fire Department has compiled the following
information regarding possible budget reductions for the
purpose of providing the City Council and citizens with an
overview of wnat could be cut and what the impact of those
cuts would be on service levels. It must be emphasized that
any cuts in our budget will result in service level
reductions due to the fact that the Fire Department's work is
labor intensive and therefore 91.6/ of our 1992/93 budaet is
for personnel costs. We did reduce our budget in 1992/93 by
$ 56,835 to assist with the budget shortfall that occurred at
that time. These reductions were offset by salary increases
which had been previously negotiated, but did help keep costs
down. The reductions included the freezing of one Battalion
Chiefs position for 6 months, reductions in training,
conference attendance, uniform costs, books and magazine
subscriptions, dues to professional organizations, etc. The
cuts we proposed in 1992/93 were presented in a three tiered
manner and we are presenting the following possibilities in
the same format. It must also be noted that some of the
following concepts will require meet and confer and/or
negotiations with the Firefighters bargaining unit. The
estimated budget reductions associated with each phase are
presented in spreadsheet fore following the de"cription of
each phase.
PHASE I REDUCTIONS:
Phase 1 reductions include items other than personnel or
goods which will reduce service levels on an immediate basis.
These reductions may have long term effects if continued
beyond a few years.
FUND 10.0-201.01. FIRE ADMINISTRATION:
OBJECT CODE DESCRIPTION
102 Discontinuance of the practice of paying
Overtime for relief personnel while an employee is
attending training sessions or school out
of the city. Reduction of the number of
meetings which require overtime payment to
those attending. Nc longer providing
personnel to assist other jurisdictions
with oral interviews. (Estimated reduction
equals $16,051).
111,115,121.
125
These reductions result from the reduction
in overtime noted above. (Estimated
reduction equals E1,386).
304 laundry will be purchased instead of rented
Laundry and will be distributed to each employee
who will launder his/her own laundry in
machines which we now have in each station.
(Estimated reduction equals $3,000).
305 The miscellaneous expense for uniforms,
Uniforms which covers badge replacement, patches,
damaged uniform replacement. etc. will be
reduced $ 1,000.

PHASE II REDUCTIONS:
Phase II reductions include items which will have an
immediate effect on service levels. The incorporation of
these cuts in the budget will reduce our ability to provide
the current level of service in Hazardous Materials response,
Public Education, and to a lesser level Emergency Medical and
Fire Suppression services. The long term effects are
difficult to measure, but considering the fact that we are
presently 5 personnel less than we were in 1978, the loss of
any personnel will cause a reduction in service level.
10.0-201.01 FIRE ADMINISTRATION
OBJECT COPE DESCRIPTION
101 Continue the freeze on the vacant Battalion
Salaries Chiefs position for the 1993/94 budget
year. This will require that we place one
Fire Administrative Officer on 24 hour
shift to fill the Battalion Chief position.
This action would allow us to restructure
the staff officers and work with the
mechanics of restructuring until the Fire
Administrative Officer retired and we could
then eliminate his position.
(Estimated savings = $52.1L3)
102 Eliminate the use of off duty shift
Overtime personnel working overtime in the Fire
Prevention Bureau. C.It the HazMat Team
training overtime allotment in half. Cut

ABJECT CODE DESCRIPTION

Salaries,
Benefits,
Incentive Pay
Reduce the staff of the Fire Department by
one Admin. Clerk III and six fire personnel
this will remove the Truck company from
service and will require that we man the
telephones and do clerical work with on
duty fire personnel, thus limiting our
ability to leave Fire Station #1 and ,
conduct inspections, training and other
activities. When the unit from station #1
is on a call the station will be locked.
The placing of equipment in service at
emergencies will be delayed and the safety
level to firefighters will be reduced
appreciably by these cuts. All working
fires will be classed as general alarms and
will require the calling back of uff duty
personnel and mutual aid from our
'ighboring fire departments. The level of
fire suppression, EMS, hazardous materials,
public education, and fire prevention
services will be greatly reduced due to
lack of manpower- to carry out the current
level of service in these areas.
(Estimated savings $312,68b)
If the above items were implemented the budget reduction
would be an estimated $325,486.

REVENUE GENERATIONt
The current fee study
indicates that fees for fire
prevention services would generate $69,985. Collected at
this rate the fees would offset 513% of the user fee costs.
Theses tees would only be used to pay those costs directly
associated with the services for which fees are charged and
would assist in meeting our fire prevention needs which were
budgeted at $237.170 in 1992-93. Due to the fact that the
schedule proposes to charge -fees for services which will
directly benefit the user of the service. we feel very
comfortable with the fee.schedule and recommend that these
fees be adopted. -
A copy of the Fire Department section of the fee study is
included for your review and consideration.
In addition to the fee study we are considering the
possibility of charging for the following services:
* Response to Driving Under the Influence calls.
* Providing Firefighter 1 academy classes for a fee.
* Providing SB 198 hazardous materials training to
industry for a fee.
Another means of providing revenue for fire suppression
response is through the formation or a fire suppression
benefit assessment district. While this concept may not be
extremely popular, it is available and is offered to you as
another means of assisting with our financial crisis. The
Fire Department is not providing information on this subject
with any intention of pursuing such a concept without the
direction from the City Council. We do however feel that you
should be aware of all possible funding sources and this is
one. Included is information concerning_ fire suppression
assessment districts which was compiled by HSI Consultants
Inc.. and was presented to us .9t meeting of the San Joaquin
County .ire Chiefs.
In conclusion it shou:d be noted that items described in
our cost reduction possibilities :,nd in the revenue
generation concepts aodress lu of the 24 top priority items
that were listed by fire department personnel du,in« the
tac11 itatEd meetings nelci List year.

full cost of operating the animal shelter).
DMG's recommendation is for a $4.40 increase in license fees, and significant increases
for impounded animals.
8. Fre Department - The City's Fire Department does not currently have a fee schedule
for fire services. Most all fire departments now charge for the costs of permits, plan
reviews, and inspections. These services are, in fact, of direct benefit to the business
community, i.e. professional fire prevention services should translate into lower fire
insurance premiums.
In Lodi, costs of the fire prevention program are $120,650. DMG recommends
institution of a fee schedule for the aforementioned services. DMG also recommends
institution of a fee for failed routine (non permitted type) inspections. There would be
no charge for the initial inspection or passed first reinspection. Adoption of the
recommer.ded fees should result in $69,985 in new annual revenue.
We have not included the potential revenue from a formalized permit issuance and
inspection program. The Fire Department is not currently performing this service and
a program would have to be established to accomplish the task. Potential revenue is
estimated at 535,300 per yea and should completely offset the cost of providing the
service.
9. City Clerk - The Clerk's office currently does not charge for any services. DMG
recommends that fees be adopted to produce and mail requested meeting minutes.
10. Customer Services - This section of the Finance department maintains the utility billing
and collection system. It is recommended that charges be assessed for the sending of
delinquent notices and delinquent shut off/turn on's. The City should realize $47,775 in
revenue from these charges.
11. Recreation - The Recreation department expends 51,100,559 in program services and
recovers $468,786 in revenue (a 43 % recovery rate). DMG recommends implementation
of fees for special events and volleyball, plus additional adjustments in several other
existing fee service areas. Overall, fee revenue would increase $28,000 cr 6%.
12. Community Center - The Community Center currently costs 5362,621 to operate;
offsetting revenue is $27,154. It is recommended that fee be increased 50%, resulting
in $13,647 in new revenue.
13. Parks - Seventy three percent (73%) of the Parks operations is non user fee oriented
DMG recommends increasing the hourly charge for parks maintenance workers to full
cost. At curreka utilization, this would increase revenue 545,765. No fee increases are
recommended at Lake Lodi.

USING BENEFIT ASSESSMENTS
TO PAY FOR FIRE SUPPRESSION SERVICES
CAN AN ASSESSMENT BE MADE TO PAY FOR FIRE SUPPRESSION SERVICES
Yes, Section 50078 of the California Government Code allows any public agency which
provides fire suppression services, either directly or by contract, to form a fire suppression
benefit assessment district to levy an assessment for fire suppression services.
WHO CAN FORM ONE
Under the lav, any local agency which provides fire suppression services can form a district.
This includes cities, counties, special districts and county service areas. The agency does
not have to actually have its own fire department to be eligible to form a district. For
example, a city that contracts with the county to provide fire suppression services can form
a district.
WHAT TYPE OF SERVICES CAN BE FUNDED `'
The law allows funds raised through the levy of assessments to be used for:
•
•
•
purchasing fire suppression equipment, such as fire engines and other
apparatus:
paving the salaries and benefit costs for fire Lighting personnel; and
paying the costs for operating, maintaining and equipping fire suppression
equipment.
As cutcently written. the law generally does not allow funds to be used for the construction
of fire stations, c,r the funding of paramedic services.
WHY FORM A DISTRICT ?
Fire suppression benefit assessment districts are generally formed to provide a stable, long-
term source of funding for fire suppression services. Once the district has been formed,
property owners within the district are assessed on an annual basis for fire suppression
services. The assessments may be collected in the same manner as county taxes are
collected, or collected in the same manner as other fees, charges or taxes are collected by
the agency. The funds collected may only be used for the purposes identified when the
district was formed.
WHAT IS REQUIRED TO FORM A DISTRICT
The specific requirements for forming a district are contained in Section 50078 of the
'California Government Code. A copy of the code section is included in the appendix.

The first step

•
US/NG BENEFIT ASSESSMENTS
TO PAY FOR FIRE SUPPRESSION SERVICES
in forming the district is for the legislative body to order that a written report
This report is required to:
identify the boundaries of the proposed district;
document the basis for and proposed schedule of assessments;
identify the duration of the assessments;
state the amount of the assessment for each parcel of property for the initial
fiscal year; and
establish the duration of the assessment.
Once prepared, the report is filed with the clerk of the agency.
Upon receipt of the report, a date is set for conducting a public hearing to consider the
formation of the district. Once the time. place and date is set, the clerk is required to
post a notice of the hearing and cause a notice to be mailed to each property owner within
the proposed district's boundaries. Beginning January 1, 1993, these notices must be [nailed
at least forty-five (45) days prior to the date set for the public hearing. In addition, the
agency must conduct a public meeting to hear testirnony regarding the proposed assessment
prior to the public hearing.
At the public hearing, those persons who wish to speak either for or against the formation
of the district may speak. Property owners in opposition to the formation of the district may
also file a written protest with the legisla,ive body prior to the public hearing. At any time
prior to the close of the public hearing, the legislative body may revise, change, reduce or
modify the proposed assessments.
At the conclusion of the public hearing, if the level of protest is found to be less than five
percent, the legislative body may adopt a resolution ordering the formation of the district.
If property owners representing more than five percent of the total amount of revenue
expected to be collected protest the formation of the district, then the district must be
"submitted to the voters for approval or abandoned based on the actual percent of protest
received.
If the district is being formed by either a city or county, and property owners representing
more than five percent but less than one third of the total amount of the expected revenue
protest the formation of the district. then the district must be submitted for zpproval to the
voters. A two thirds approval of the voters is required for formation if a vote is re, . red.
If the district is being formed by a special district, and property owners reprzsenting more
than five percent protest but less than 0,1, half of the total amount of the expected revenue
protest the formation of the district. then the district trust be submitted for approval to the
voters. A majority approval of rhe voters is required for formation if a vote is required.

USING BENEFIT ASSESSMENTS
TO PAY FOR FIRE SUPF :'ESSION SERVICES
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO FORM A DISTRICT?
The procedures as outlined in the Government Code contain specific time requirements for
the time between when the notices are mailed to each property owner and then the Public
Hearing can be held. Beginni"g January 1, 1993, the Public Hearing cannot be held sooner
than 45 days after the date the notices are mailed. Additional time is required for the
preparation of the written report, and review and approval of the report by the legislative
body of the agency. To ensure that the assessment district be formed in time to allow the
assessments to be filed with the County Assessor's office in early August for inclusion on
the following year's tax roll, most agencies allow a minimum of 3-5 months for the
formation process.
IiOW IS THE AMOUNT OF THE ASSESSMENT DETERMINED ?
The code requires that the amount of the assessment to be levied on any property be based
upon the type of use of the property, and the risk classification of the „Lrtctures or other
improvements on the property. Risk can be based on fire flow requirements, structure size
and type of construction, response titres as well as other factors related to potential fire and
panic hazards and the costs of providing fire suppression services. The specific methodology
to be used in determining the assessment or charge to be levied upon each parcel is
developed by the assessment engineer after a careful analysis of these factors and the benefits
received by each parcel.
ADMINISTERLNG THE DISTRICT
Once the district has been formed, a copy of the assessment roll trust be filed with the
county auditor if the assessments are to be collected on the. tax roll.
Since the assessments are levied on an annual basis, each year after the district is formed the
legislative body must adopt a resolution which establishes the assessments for the corning
year. If the assessments are increased. the amount cannot exceed the maximum allowable
increase as stated in the report which was prepared at the time the district was formed.
If the assessments are co'lected by the county on behalf of the agency, then the assessment
roll must be submitted to the county auditor each year. This must be done in early August
so that the assessment will appear on the tax bills for that year.
ARE THERE OTIIER TYPES OF DISTRICTS TIHAT CAN BE USED TO FUND FIRE
SUPPRESSION SERVICES ?
There are two other methods for generating revenue which can be used to fund fire
suppression services. Section 53973 of the California Government Code allows any local
agency which provides fire protection services to adopt a special tax to raise funds for fire
