Roger Carter and Wendall Burke addressed the Board about implementing a fire tax. They spoke about the
importance of ISO ratings and funding that is required to keep a good ISO rating. It was pointed out that ISO ratings
affect everyone’s insurance costs. They pointed out that they cannot purchase a fire truck with the current funding
provided by the county. It was noted that a financial institution will not give a loan when a funding request must be
considered yearly instead of having something that they can depend on each year. It was pointed out that a fire tax
would provide a set amount of funds each year.
There was discussion among the Board.
