Village approves intergovernmental fire‑training agreement with City of Waukesha
Summary
The Village of Waukesha approved an agreement allowing its fire department to train at a City of Waukesha facility after a brief discussion of costs and scheduling; the agreement had been reviewed by legal counsel and the board approved a minor administrative edit before signing.
The Village of Waukesha voted to approve an agreement with the City of Waukesha that will allow the village fire department to use the city’s regional training facility.
Speaker 3 moved the contract at the meeting and the motion carried on a voice vote. Speaker 3 said they had passed the document to a reviewer named John for legal review beforehand and asked that page 5 be updated to insert the village’s agency information before signing. Speaker 2 described the facility as “state of the art,” noting training costs were minimal and built into existing training budgets; Speaker 2 said, "It is really state of the art." Speaker 3 confirmed the arrangement would be reflected in the agreement and asked staff to sign the back page and provide a revised page 5 with the village's information.
Board members discussed scheduling logistics — Speaker 2 said some sessions might be two-hour Monday increments or an all-day Saturday to meet local scheduling needs — and noted the training fees were already included in department training budgets. There was no roll-call vote recorded; the board approved the motion by voice.
Next steps: staff was instructed to insert the village’s contact information on page 5 of the agreement and route the finalized document for signature.
