HB 412 -- FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICTS CO-SPONSORS: Foley, Murray COMMITTEE ACTION: Voted "do pass" by the Committee on Local Government and Related Matters by a vote of 18 to 0. This bill allows, upon voter approval, any fire protection district that provides emergency ambulance service to provide nonemergency ambulance service with the use of a fee for such service. FISCAL NOTE: No impact on state funds. PROPONENTS: Supporters say that this service would be paid for by user fees and only after being put to a vote of the people. Allowing fire protection districts to provide nonemergency runs would promote greater competition and shorter waiting times for users. It would also bring in revenue for the districts. Testifying for the bill were Representative Foley; and Missouri State Council of Fire Fighters. OPPONENTS: There was no opposition voiced to the committee. Steve Bauer, Legislative Analyst
