e the amount proposed for a new fire station, the City cannot meet that ongoing expense. Regarding Ms. Ehrman's comments regarding the cost of state-of-the-art equipment, Mr. Robinette suggested that the council would not wish to be in the position after a major fire in the south hills to say that it could have spent the money on state-of-the-art equipment but had decided against it. Mr. Nicholson observed that south hills development has occurred in somewhat "willy-nilly" fashion without regard for the effect on the community's infrastructure or the hazard to building in the woods represented by such development. He said he would vote for the motion if the council was committed to avoiding the inequity between parts of the community in the future, represented by the council's action regarding the south hills emergency response. Mr. Green endorsed Ms. Ehrman's remarks regarding the City's ability to support state-of-the-art equipment for service delivery, noting that there were areas in his ward that could use state-of-the-art equipment and services. Mr. Green said that the issues raised by Mr. Boles were relevant and deserved further discussion. Mr. Boles asked the council to indicate that it intended to link further work on the south hills emergency response to examination of those issues cited by him previously, as well as other related issues. The council indicated its willingness to create the link desired by Mr. Boles. e Roll call vote; the motion passed unanimously, 6:0.
