BILL NUMBER:S7307
Title of bill
An act to authorize the transfer of certain funds of the village of Brockport, allocated for fire protection and of unexpended cash and reserves of the Sweden Fire Protection District and the Clarkson Fire Protection District, to the Brockport Fire District, following the formation of the Brockport Fire District and the dissolution of the Sweden Fire Protection District and the Clarkson Fire Protection District
Purpose
To authorize the transfer of certain funds from the Village of Brockport, the Sweden Fire Protection District, and the Clarkson Fire Protection District to the newly created Brockport Fire District.
Summary of provisions
Section 1 of the bill authorizes the transfer of certain funds from the Village of Brockport, the Sweden Fire Protection District, and the Clarkson Fire Protection District to the newly created Brockport Fire District.
Section 2 of the bill is the effective date.
Justification
The citizens of the Village of Brockport, and the Towns of Sweden and Clarkson approved the formation of the Brockport Fire District by a mandatory referendum in November 2011.
The newly formed Brockport Fire District consolidates the provision of fire services of the Clarkson Fire Protection District, the Sweden Fire Protection District and the Village of Brockport Fire Department into a single unified entity - the Brockport Fire District. The Brockport Fire District will serve the Village of Brockport, the Town of Sweden and a portion of the Town of Clarkson. The Sweden Fire Protection District and the Clarkson Fire Protection District will dissolve effective June 31, 2012.
The Village of Brockport, the Sweden Fire Protection District, and the Clarkson Fire Protection District have accumulated certain funds for fire protection services. The Board of Trustees of the Village of Brockport and the Town Boards of the Towns of Clarkson and Sweden are seeking this Legislation in order to fund the newly created Brockport Fire District for the period of July 1, 2012 until December 31, 2012. This bill will accomplish that public purpose by authorizing the transfer of certain funds, allocated for fire protection services,
from the Village of Brockport, the Sweden Fire Protection District, and the Clarkson Fire Protection District to the newly created Brockport Fire District.
This consolidation of fire services will best serve the needs of the residents and businesses within the newly formed fire district by granting direct decision making to the citizens of the newly formed Brockport Fire District.
