Chisago City Council accepts 2024 Fire Relief audit; department received $28,000 state bonus
Summary
The Chisago City Council accepted the 2024 audit for the Chisago City Fire Relief Association; treasurer Jonathan Wrolstad said the association joined the Statewide Volunteer Firefighter (SVF) pension program earlier this year, received a $28,000 state bonus, and expects roughly $17,000 in annual audit savings.
Jonathan Wrolstad, treasurer for the Chisago City Fire Department Relief Association, presented the council with the association’s 2024 audit and explained the department’s recent move into the Statewide Volunteer Firefighter (SVF) pension program. Wrolstad said the pension assets transferred to the state on Jan. 1 and that the transition required a completed 2024 audit to confirm the transfer was successful.
Wrolstad said the department received a state bonus of $28,000 as an incentive for joining SVF and that the association anticipates saving about $17,000 per year in audit costs going forward. Council member Mark Anderson moved to accept the audit and Council member Marie Rivers seconded; the council voted to accept the audit with all ayes.
The council took no additional action beyond accepting the audit report at the meeting.
