Committee forwards Wells firefighter‑linked Fire District budget to full commission
Summary
Committee moved to forward approval of the Fire Protection District budget, including a Wells firefighter position contingent on the City of Wells committing funds for the post; voice vote approved the forwarding motion.
A motion to forward the Oakwood (Elko) County Fire Protection District budget to the full commission carried after a commissioner noted the Wells firefighter addition was contingent on the City of Wells allocating the funding. The motion was introduced to allow the full commission to consider final approval along with the contract terms for Wells.
"So with that, I would go ahead and move that we forward recommendation to the full commission to approve the fire district budget as submitted, noting that...the additional firefighter is contingent upon having the city of Wells, allocating the funds for that position," said the commissioner who moved the recommendation. The committee recorded a voice vote in favor and will place the Fire District item on the upcoming commission docket for final action.
