Six Year History Of Fund Balances


Over the past several years the District's Board of Directors has worked toward establishing a stronger cash position. Funds have grown from approximately $60,000 at the end of 2006 to an estimated $150,000 at the end of the current (2009) calendar year.

This prudent cash management strategy serves two important functions:

1. It enables the District to respond to unanticipated expenses, such as repairs to critical fire fighting vehicles as they age as well as major repairs to buildings or fire fighting/medical equipment; and

2. It means that the District can create a long-term capital expenditure strategy, allowing for the gradual replacement of obsolete vehicles and equipment over time and providing for additional fire stations (only if justified by population growth).
