Executive Summary:
Coconino Community College (CCC) and the City have an Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) which allows the sharing of resources such as the Flagstaff Fire Training Center and class room facilities at CCC. The IGA is amended to improve sharing of resources between the City and the CCC Fire and EMS program. The revisions allow for a more efficient management of shared resources and reduced expenses. Additionally, CCC makes available to the Flagstaff Fire Department, and our regional partners, classroom training and software technology, and a light and breathing air trailer in support of fire and emergency incidents in the Greater Flagstaff Region. Flagstaff Fire Department agrees to appropriately house and maintain the trailer.
Financial Impact:
Minimal annual maintenance of the light and breathing air trailer that we have been doing since 2015. In turn, this trailer is available for Fire Department use for working incidents, training and regional academies.
Policy Impact:
None
