(Flagstaff FD, Highlands FD, Ponderosa FD, Camp Navajo FD, Summit FMD)  An IGA is necessary to enable the participation of new partners in the regional training program.

The participants fund the Regional Training Coordinator on a per Firefighter methodology.  The addition of the Pinewood Fire District reduces costs to the other partners by $9,829.05. The Flagstaff Fire Department pays 44.5%  or $38,034 for it's per firefighter share of the $85,0000 total expense.  This position is funded in the FY2019 budget with offsetting revenue from the other partner agencies.
