City staff seek $24,500 to update fire-assessment apportionment methodology
Summary
Staff requested $24,500 to retain Accenture Infrastructure and Capital Projects LLC to study the city's fire-assessment rates, the first reevaluation since the program began about nine years ago.
City of Lake Wales staff asked the commission to approve a $24,500 contract to hire Accenture Infrastructure and Capital Projects LLC to study the city's fire-assessment apportionment methodology.
City staff said the fire assessment has not been reevaluated since it was implemented "a little over nine years ago," and that changes in inflation, personnel costs and new structures justify an updated study. "We're requesting approval of this contract so that we can perform a study on our current fire assessment rates," the staff member said.
The transcript does not show a formal motion, a recorded vote or further details on the study's scope beyond the general items cited (inflation, personnel and new structures). The transcript also does not specify a contract start date or performance milestones.
