Annually the City of Ramsey enters into a contract for fire protection with each of these communities. Before the City Council at this time is the contract for fire protection and emergency services with the Anoka-Champlin Joint Fire Department. The contract is essentially the same as in previous years with the exception of the rate which has been increased from 1.1 mills to 1.25 mills, the effect of which is an increase of S6,990 (the old rate would have been $51,262; the new rale results in an annual bill of $58,252). Allhough not changed from last year's contract, there is a clause that describes the required two year writlen notice for termination of the agreement. It is the intention of Staff to change this clause so the term of the agreement lasts until December 31, 1990. It is Staff's recommendation that the City Council enter into this agreement with the aforementioned modification in 1erin of contract. Enclosed for your information is a letter from Anoka City Manager Mark Nagel and a copy of the contract for fire protection and emergency services for 1989 with the Anoka-Champlin Joint Fire Deparlment.
