Council approves three‑year fire services contract with Chisago Lakes Township
Summary
The council approved a reworked three‑year contract for fire services with Chisago Lakes Township that replaces a prior 10‑year agreement; the new contract uses a simpler funding formula, includes an annual inflationary adjustment for operations, and was already approved on the township side.
The Lindstrom City Council approved an updated three‑year contract with Chisago Lakes Township on May 21 to continue joint fire services. Staff said the new agreement replaces a more complex, older 10‑year formula with a simpler funding split that aligns with the township’s budgeting schedule. The operational portion of the contract will include an annual inflation adjustment; the debt‑service portion remains unchanged.
Staff reported the township approved the contract earlier this week. Councilors said the shorter three‑year term gives both parties an opportunity to renegotiate sooner if fiscal conditions change. A motion to approve the contract passed unanimously.
