BACKGROUND
The Fire Commission voted at its meeting held on September 18, 2025, to distribute $26,000.00 to East Gaston Fire Department from the fund balance. East Gaston Fire Department is requesting funding that was included but not calculated in overall 2024 budget total, subsequently leaving both insurance lines for vehicle and property insurance unfunded (226 & 227 in budget excel file). These lines total $26,000. This budget miscalculation has required the department to fund these expenses from other line items and placed an undue financial burden on the department.
