Northshore Fire Department adopts 2013 budget

During the regular meeting on November 6, 2012, the Northshore Fire Department Board of Commissioners adopted a budget for the 2013 calendar year. 

In adopting this budget, the Board was able to reduce revenues by cutting taxes and Fire Benefit Charge by $535,906 or 7.2%.

Since the 2010 budget year, the Fire District has reduced its last four budgets, made possible by a number of cost cutting measures and concessions by the employees.

The District is very pleased to have been able to weather the recent tough economic times without spending down vital reserves or cutting essential services.
