Minutes note: Appearances: Assistant Fire Chief Mark Sain, Milwaukee Fire Department. Battalion Chief Pepie DuDevoire, Milwaukee Fire Department. Martin Morics, City Comptroller. Attorney Franklin Gimble, Representative for Bell Ambulance. Motion by Ald. Puente that Exhibit (1), Comparison of Current Chapter 75-15 with File 061232, provided by Attorney Gimble be made part of the record. Prevailed. 5-0. Mr. Martin Morics, City Comptroller expressed the following concerns about Common Council File #061232 in its current version. He stated passage of the ordinance as is would impact the city negatively for the following reasons. -The city does not generally setup departmental funds that require disbursements outside of the budget. -The impact of the ordinance as currently written will take $4,000,000 of revenue out of the priority setting budget process that the Council has every year; this will allow expenditure authority to devolve to the department without budgetary review by the Council. -If the ordinance is passed and effective it could negatively impact the budget because the funds would no longer be general fund revenues. - Even though the file was submitted to address ambulance rates, the current version will damage the fiscal operations and policy making should not be done. Finally, the ordinance needs to be re-written to avoid any of the instances listed. Motion by Alderman Witkowski that the committee hold Common Council File Number 061232 again. This file was held at the January 25, 2007 Public Safety Committee meeting. At that time Alderman Witkowski requested data be provided by the Fire Department indentifying Milwaukee County's historical collection rate. Alderman Witkowski reiterated his previous request for the Fire Department to provide data identifying Milwaukee County's historical collection rate when this file is rescheduled before the Public Safety Committee.
