Signed Fire Agreement May 12 2022

A new Intermunicipal Fire Agreement has been signed between the Municipality of the District of Chester (MODC) and the Village of Chester to provide fire and emergency services or the next 20 years to MODC Districts 3 (which includes the Village), 7, and part of 1 via the Chester Volunteer Fire Department (CVFD). What was a service agreement is now a partnership agreement.

Oversight of the CVFD will now be provided by a new body, the Chester Fire Services Committee. This Committee is incorporated under the Municipal Government Act and jointly owned by MODC and the Village. The Committee consists of three members appointed by the Municipality and three members appointed by the Village. The assets of the CVFD, which were paid for by ratepayers both in the Village and the so-called "Outside Area", are considered jointly owned. Administrative support continues to be provided by Village staff. For more details, see the legal documents below.
