Council authorizes transfer of 1995 Pierce engine to Falls City with maintenance conditions

The council approved an intergovernmental agreement to transfer a 1995 Pierce fire engine to the Falls City Fire Department at no cost, subject to conditions requiring Falls City to maintain a fleet-maintenance contract with Dallas for three years and to perform NFPA‑required inspections.
Dallas Fire Chief April Wallace presented the agreement and said the transfer would be at no cost but with stipulations: Falls City must maintain a fleet maintenance contract with the City of Dallas for three years, perform National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) inspections annually or as required, and allow Dallas temporary use of the engine if both Dallas engines are inoperable during an emergency.
Council approved the intergovernmental agreement by motion; the approved version will reflect the agreed start date for the transfer. Chief Wallace said the planned transfer date would be September 1 (staff will update the agreement date to reflect that timing).
Ending: The IGA directs staff to finalize the agreement and handle the asset transfer under the terms approved by council.
