Kendall County volunteer fire department pay schedule updated, public safety contracts approved

Under the revised payment schedule, the county pays 40% of the allocation in the first quarter and 20% in subsequent quarters.

County Auditor Corinna Speer said the payments for the first and second quarters of the fiscal year have been made, and the agenda documents indicate a total of $145,230.75 was paid upon approval.

General Counsel Jennifer O'Steen said the agreement with the city of Boerne is similar to previous agreements, in which the city fire department will respond to calls outside the city limits.

The county and the city are required to have a signed agreement for the Boerne Fire Department to provide services in Kendall County, according to the agenda.

For Bexar County ESD No. 4, commissioners approved an agreement that establishes mutual aid between the two entities, allowing a shared support network.
