BUCKHANNON The Buckhannon City Council is continuing discussion on implanting a first due fire fee that would impose a fee on all residents served by the Buckhannon Fire Department in their first due area. This would include structures outside of the corporate city limits.
At a city budget hearing recently, council members held a candid discussion about a first due fire fee.
The fee, if done at $4.50 a month, could generate $200,000 a year that would fund three new career firefighters a need by the Buckhannon Fire Department to better serve citizens and meet accreditation standards.
Council also discussed taking the $200,000 from the sales tax revenue generated each year, but some council members expressed concern that sales tax revenue was not always guaranteed. Also discussed Wednesday was a look at increasing the fire and police fees. No decisions were made at the meeting.
