iii. The approval of the Estimated Fire Services Assessment Rate Schedule by
The City of Mount Dora is considering a Preliminary Rate Resolution to approve an Estimated Fire Services Assessment Rate Schedule. This resolution will set the amount of Fire Services Assessed Costs for the upcoming fiscal year. Any remaining budget needed for fire services, facilities, and programs will come from other City revenues, not from the assessment proceeds. This item is currently under review by the City Council. If approved, this would involve establishing assessment rates and collecting funds for fire services, facilities, and programs. This early stage presents an opportunity for local contractors, suppliers, and service providers to understand the city's funding plans for fire services. Engaging now, before final budgets and service plans are set, allows businesses to prepare for potential future needs related to fire services infrastructure or operations.

iv. The estimated Fire Services Assessments specified in the Estimated Fire
The City of Mount Dora is planning to establish estimated Fire Services Assessments for the Fiscal Year 2026-2027. These assessments will fund specified Fire Services Assessed Costs. The costs do not include revenue for capital improvements from new growth or development, nor do they cover Emergency Medical Services costs. This item is currently under review by the City Council. The establishment of these assessments will set the rates for fire services funding. This process could lead to future needs for contractors and suppliers related to fire services infrastructure or operations, though specific projects are not detailed at this stage. Local businesses in relevant sectors should monitor future city communications for potential opportunities as detailed plans emerge.
