7-308 : Rural fire service.

  1. The City of Jefferson City will not provide fire services outside its corporate limits after June 30, 1982 with the exception that fire service shall be continued for any industrial building fire occurring within one-half of the city limits of Jefferson City, said service being contingent upon the affected industry having entered into a prior written agreement to pay to Jefferson City a fee of $200.00 per fire call. No member of the fire department or any officer or employee of the city shall order or cause any fire equipment to be taken outside the corporate limits of the city in response to a fire service call, except as provided within this section and in subsection 2, after said date.
  2. Where mutual aid agreements have been signed or are adopted by the city in the future, between the city and other cities or volunteer fire departments, the fire chief is hereby authorized to respond to calls for service outside the corporate limits when the call is from another fire department with which the city has a mutual aid agreement.
