The City of Mount Dora is reviewing a proposal to establish Fire Services Assessments for fire protection services. This plan involves a public hearing on September 10, 2026, where the City Council will consider public comments before potentially imposing these assessments for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2026. The assessments will be collected with ad valorem taxes. This process is currently under review and early in its public process. The project would involve establishing a method for determining and collecting these assessments, which are intended to fund fire protection services, facilities, and programs. This early stage presents an opportunity for contractors, suppliers, and service providers to engage with the city before final plans and bids are set. Businesses involved in fire protection services, administrative services, and potentially legal and financial services related to assessments could find opportunities.
