2019BUDGETMESSAGE The Eagle River Fire Protection District serves approximately 186 square mile area of Eagle County, Colorado, including the Towns of Avon, Minturn and Red Cliff, and the communities of Arrowhead, Bachelor Gulch, Cordillera, Eagle‐Vail, Edwards, and portions of Wolcott. In addition, the District serves the Beaver Creek Metropolitan District service area, including Beaver Creek Resort, pursuant to an Agreement for Fire Protection and Emergency Services. It is a professional fire service agency with five facilities of which four are staffed as operational fire and emergency response stations by 64 full‐time uniformed firefighter employees and five administrative employees. The District protects visitors, residences, businesses, rural areas, high‐rise resort hotels, and forested areas. The attached budget includes proposed expenditures and the means by which the District will finance them. Prior to budget adoption, the District holds a public hearing to obtain taxpayer comments. Following the public hearing, the Board of Directors legally adopts the budget, appropriates funds for expenditure, and levies a property tax by passing resolutions on or before the fifteenth day of December. The Board of Directors is authorized to transfer money between line items. However, the Board of Directors must approve by supplemental resolution any expenditure that exceeds the legally adopted annual operating budget for a particular fund. The District budget is made up of five funds: the General Fund, the Capital Impact Fee Fund, the Debt Service Fund, Equipment Replacement Fund, and the Capital Projects Fund. The General Fund is used to account for all financial resources relating to the overall operations of the District including personnel, commodities, contract services, purchasing and financing, and capital equipment. The Capital Impact Fee Fund includes reserves to fund specific capital projects that address growth and its impact on the District’s service levels. The Debt Service Fund is used to accumulate financial resources for the repayment of principal and interest related to the General Obligation Bonds, Series 2016. The Equipment Replacement Fund accumulates financial resources for the future replacement of existing fleet and equipment. The Capital Projects Fund is used to account for the construction of facilities and the acquisition of certain capital assets. The District’s budget is prepared using the modified accrual basis of accounting. This method accounts for revenues when they are measurable and available, and expenditures within the period in which the District normally liquidates the related liability rather than when the liability is first incurred. Governmental accounting standards require a comparison of the legally adopted budget with actual data on the budgetary basis, which actual data may differ from Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) presentations in the audit report.
v
Budget Highlights The District’s budget format incorporates a strategic plan and long‐range capital plan and includes the following five programs: Support Services, Operations, Health, Wellness and Safety, Fire Prevention, and Community Risk Management. Operations include activities which result in direct emergency service delivery to the communities protected by the Fire District. Constituting the largest of the District’s four programs, Operations includes Structure Fire Suppression, Emergency Medical Services, Wildland, Technical Rescue, Hazardous Materials and Deployments, and details the cost of staff, all equipment and supplies, and the training necessary to ensure the provision of an appropriate level of service. Fire Prevention includes the prevention of fires, the investigation of the cause, origin, and circumstances of fires, the elimination of fire and life safety hazards in buildings, and vehicles, the maintenance of fire protection equipment and systems, the regulation of storage, use, and handling of hazardous materials and hazardous substances, and enforcement of the basic building regulations in matters regarding fire, panic, and explosion safety. In addition, Fire Prevention is dedicated to enhancing environmental protection and creating a more business friendly environment. The Community Risk Management (CRM) Program promotes safer communities through community outreach, education and the promotion of hazard mitigation, especially as they pertain to natural and manmade disasters. In addition to ongoing identification and assessment of district‐wide risks, the CRM program collaborates with local, state and federal agencies to ensure the District’s ability to appropriately assist communities in the mitigation, preparedness, response, and recover phases of hazards to communities it services. Health, Wellness and Safety ensures that the District complies with laws and industry standards pertaining to workplace safety, provides tools and equipment necessary to protect staff against job‐related health hazards and promotes employee well‐being in an effort to reduce the incidence and cost of illness and injury. This program includes a comprehensive physical fitness program designed to reduce the likelihood of cardiac related illnesses and ensure that staff maintains a level of fitness commensurate with the physical demands of their job. Support Services includes administrative, managerial and logistical activities which facilitate the provision of the District’s other programs. Support Services also includes such activities as Human Resources, Finance and Fleet Management, along with a variety of smaller, but no critical activities that ensure the continuity of District functions. The budget also incorporates the District’s fund balance reserve policy, established by the Fire Board to assist long‐term financial planning, manage potential risks associated with changing economic, budgetary and environmental conditions, and pay potential costs incurred by the District as a result of catastrophic incidents such as destructive wildfires. The policy sets a minimum unassigned level of 25% of the District’s budgeted General Fund operating expenditures, excluding capital.
vi

Eagle County, the Town of Avon, the Town of Minturn, and the Town of Red Cliff collect emergency services impact fees on the District’s behalf. These fees are based upon new water taps. Debt Service Fund: The Debt Service Fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources for the repayment of principal and interest on the General Obligation Bonds, Series 2016.

Debt Service Fund Summary
Per Title 30, Article 1, C.R.S, Fees of County Treasurer, the District pays the County a fee for the tax money it collects on the District’s behalf. In Eagle
County, a county of the fourth class, this fee equals three percent of the property tax collections.
Property taxes are levied by the District’s Board of Directors to pay the annual debt service of the General Obligation Bonds, Series 2016. The levy is
based on assessed valuations determined by the Eagle County Assessor generally as of January 1, of each year. Taxing entities that are Special District
or Subdistricts of Special District must certify a separate mill levy for each bond or contract.
Enacted in 1937, and contained in Article X, Section 6, Colorado Constitution; Title 42, Article 3, C.R.S., Specific Ownership Taxes are levied on vehicles
in lieu of a property tax, and paid each year upon vehicle registration. Tax rates vary by class and age of vehicle.
In Colorado, local governments may levy a mill to collect property taxes that the local government did not receive in the prior year due to taxpayer
refunds or errors in property valuation. The abatement levy may generate revenues up to, but not exceeding, the refund/abatement amount from
DLG Form 57 Line 11.

Property Tax payments that are not received when due are considered delinquent and are collectible by the County Treasurer through distraint
and sale proceedings. All property tax payments are due to the County Treasurer by June 15. As delinquent property taxes are received, they are
accounted for separately through placement in this account.
Delinquent property tax payments are subject to penalty and interest charges administered by the County Treasurer. If property taxes are not paid
by the 28th day of February, interest shall accrue at the rate of one percent (1%) per month from the first day of March until the date of payment.
If the full amount of tax is paid by April 30th then no delinquent interest shall accrue.
A property tax abatement is an official reduction or invalidation of an assessed valuation after the initial assessment for a tax based on the value of
the real estate in question. A taxpayer may file an abatement petition with the County Treasurer to officially request an abatement of taxes due, or
a refund of taxes paid. The abatement petition may be filed within two years of the date the taxes were levied.
The District has entered into a Services Agreement with Gypsum Fire Protection District (GFPD). GFPD pays the District, as compensation for
services, a monthly fee.
Motor vehicle accident (MVA) fees relate to MVA’s on Interstate 70, Highway 6, 24 and 131 involving non‐district property owners when some
form of medical assessment or care is provided. These fees also include Hazmat recovery and vehicle fires.
Property taxes are levied by the District’s Board of Directors. The levy is based on assessed valuations determined by the Eagle County Assessor
generally as of January 1, of each year.
Enacted in 1937, and contained in Article X, Section 6, Colorado Constitution; Title 42, Article 3, C.R.S., Specific Ownership Taxes are levied on
vehicles in lieu of a property tax, and paid each year upon vehicle registration. Tax rates vary by class and age of vehicle.
Inspection and plan review fees are associated with construction that occurs within the District’s boundaries. These fees are for both commercial
and residential construction, new construction and remodels.
The District has entered into an agreement for Fire Protection and Emergency Services with Beaver Creek Metropolitan District (BCMD). BCMD
pays the District, as compensation for fire services, an annual fee that increases annually based upon a specified Consumer Price Index (CPI)
formula.
In Colorado, local governments may levy a mill to collect property taxes that the local government did not receive in the prior year due to taxpayer
refunds or errors in property valuation. The abatement levy may generate revenues up to, but not exceeding, the refund/abatement amount from
DLG Form 57 Line 11.
