Weber County renews five-year paramedic-service contracts with Royce City and Weber Fire districts
Summary
The commission approved five-year contract renewals with Royce City Fire and Rescue and Weber Fire District to provide countywide paramedic services; staff said the renewals reflect negotiated increases to salary-offset payments.
The Weber County Commission approved contract renewals with Royce City Fire and Rescue and with Weber Fire District to continue countywide paramedic services.
Eli Johnson, a county staff member, described the Royce City contract as a renewal: "This is a renewal on a 5 year contract, based on increases to the salary offset that was negotiated by Roy Fire and Rescue Department during a budget hearings this year." Johnson said the contract finalizes the negotiated salary-offset payments and allows the county to make payments that help offset the department's paramedic program costs.
After approving the Royce City agreement, commissioners approved a similar renewal with Weber Fire District to provide countywide paramedic services. Both motions carried on voice votes.
Staff did not provide the contract dollar amounts in the public hearing discussion recorded in the transcript. Commissioners described the actions as routine renewals to ensure continuity of paramedic coverage across the county.
