ALBERTVILLE CITY COUNCIL JOINT MEETING WITB OTSEGO CITY COONCIL May 5, 1992 PRESENT: Albertville City Council Members Jim Walsh, Duane Berning, Mike Potter, Mark Barthel and Donatus Vetsch, City Clerk Linda Boughton, otsego City Council Members Larry Fournier, Floyd Roden, Norm Freske, Doug Lindenfelser, and Ron Black, City Clerk Jerome Perrault, Deputy Clerk Elaine Beatty, Albertville Fire Chief Rick Wacker Mayor Freske called the meeting to order. The purpose of the meeting is to discuss a compromise on the 1992 fire contract proposed by the Albertville City Council. The meeting was scheduled as per the request from Fire Chief Wacker. The otsego Ci ty Counci I is opposed to being charged for a capital outlay building fund. They indicated that if a building were constructed, or if equipment were purchased, they would not object to paying for the expense after it has been realized. . The City of Albertville is of the op1n1on that major purchases/expenditures should be planned for in the budget process and money accumulated over several years for the purchase. The Albertville City Council feels it cannot levy the residents of Albertville for capital outlay purchases without assessing a fair percentage of those costs to other communities it protects. The Otsego Council asked that Albertville reassess the formula used to base the fire contract covering on a smaller portion of the City of Otsego. The Councils agreed to meet again on June 2, 1992, at 7:30 PM at the Albertville City Hall to disc~ the fire contract again. //\~) / "..... .../Iv6~ .
