Funding disputes tally district fire funding and city population
Mendocino County fire districts face a funding formula dispute for 2017-18 with an alternative plan proposing an $87,186 increase based on population and including incorporated city populations. The MCAFD notes that cities like Ukiah Willits Point Arena and Fort Bragg lack separate fire protection entities and would change allocations. County staff recommend approving the alternative, plus a $87,521 contingency to fund it, while also moving ahead on a $2.9 million architetural services contract for the SB 84-4 rail building project and noting state jail facility funding tied to realignment and SB 144.
