CI~Y ~F SAN BERN~DINO - REQUEST ~R COUNCIL ACTION
STAFF REPORT
Fire response into unincorporated areas within the City
limits has caused some recent concern. Even though the city
is not jurisdictionally responsible for fire service in these
areas, because of mutual aid agreements and the location of
CDF stations, the city is often dispatched as the first-in
response unit, even though we do not receive any revenue from
these areas. In response, the city has negotiated an
agreement with the County to provide fire protection and
emergency medical services to County Service Area 38, which
is located within the City of San Bernardino limits, for a
total revenue of $206,927 for FY 91/92.
