Bill Summary
Modifies provisions relating to a service fee charged by a fire protection district
AI Summary
This bill modifies provisions related to service fees charged by fire protection districts by allowing these districts to charge businesses or individuals, and their insurance companies unless coverage is excluded, for the actual and reasonable costs of emergency services received within the district's boundaries, with exceptions for residents and businesses located within the district. The bill also clarifies that these costs cannot exceed one hundred dollars for responding to each fire call or alarm and two hundred fifty dollars per hour, or a proportional amount for shorter periods, for time spent responding to a fire or emergency, and it changes the wording from "combating" to "responding to" a fire or emergency.
