Box 580 Williams Bay, WI 53191 Dear Members of the Village of Williams Bay Board, On behalf of the Fontana Fire Department, I am pleased to submit our response to the Village of Williams Bay Request for Proposal for Fire Services. We appreciate the opportunity to present our qualifications, organizational structure, and service delivery options for consideration as Williams Bay evaluates the future of its fire protection and prevention. The Fontana Fire Department is a highly trained, combination fire and EMS organization staffed by full-time, part-time, and paid-on-call personnel. Over the past decade, we have successfully expanded our service model through intergovernmental agreements, including our ongoing emergency services with Williams Bay and Walworth Township. These partnerships reflect our commitment to regional cooperation, operational efficiency, and high-quality emergency preparedness and response. The Fontana Fire Department is supported by a strong local governance structure, experienced leadership, and a proven staffing model that is fully capable of meeting the requirements outlined in the RFP. We recognize the importance of Williams Bay’s unique characteristics, and our proposal reflects these considerations to provide a scalable framework designed to adapt to changing service demands while maintaining a high standard of public safety. The Fontana Village Administrator, Theresa Loomer, can be contacted for price and contract inquiries. Chief Manthy can be contacted with technical questions.

SCOPE OF REQUIRED SERVICES EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Williams Bay and Fontana-on-Geneva Lake have already built a strong working relationship through their collaboration on emergency medical services, and we believe this partnership would be further strengthened by including fire service. Section J, “Implementation,” outlines several options for fire service delivery to Williams Bay, all of which provide flexibility to utilize existing full-time and part-time staff to deliver fire services alongside current EMS functions. • Option 1 - Working in partnership with Williams Bay Fire Department, Fontana would co-respond with Williams Bay Fire on all fire incidents in the same manner as the current mutual aid agreement. • Option 2 – Fontana provides Williams Bay fire service from the Fontana Fire Station. EMS operations would operate from Williams Bay, and fire apparatus would respond from Fontana. • Option 3 – Fontana provides Williams Bay fire service from both Fontana and Williams Bay fire stations. Williams Bay fire station personnel would respond with the ambulance or fire apparatus based on the call type; the Fontana fire station would supplement additional resources as needed. Fontana Fire Department identifies “Option 3” as the approach that would best serve Williams Bay residents and businesses by establishing a unified Fire and EMS Department operating from both the Williams Bay and Fontana fire stations. Several cross-staffed fire and EMS models are included under option 3. The first, option 3A, maintains current staffing of two 24-hour personnel in Williams Bay and has the least impact on Williams Bay’s current fire budget. If selected to provide fire service, Fontana recommends expanding future Williams Bay staffing to include a third position during the daytime hours or on a 24-hour basis (Options 3B & 3C). A. GOVERNANCE AND OVERSIGHT Fontana Fire Department has been serving the Village of Fontana and neighboring communities since 1930, transitioning from separate fire and rescue organizations to a combined municipal fire department. The Fire Department reports to several layers of local governance to provide effective and transparent structure. • Village of Fontana-on-Geneva Lake Committees o Protection Committee- Oversees policies and regulatory control. o Finance Committee - Responsible for budgetary oversight. o Human Resources Committee – Personnel items not covered by Police & Fire Commission. o Emergency Management Committee – Responsible for Fontana’s Emergency Response Plan. • Fontana Village Administrator – The Fire Chief reports directly to the Village Administrator who implements policies set by the Village Board, ensures that the department operates within municipal regulations, oversees the fire department budget, and assists with strategic planning. Holds Monthly department head meetings with Police, Fire, Public Works, Planning, and Library representatives. • Fontana Village Board - Serves as the governing and policy-setting authority over the Fire Department. Its role is high-level focused on oversight, funding, and accountability. • Fontana Police and Fire Commission (PFC) – An independent body created to ensure the Fontana police and fire departments are staffed and managed in accordance with Wisconsin statutes. Its authority is separate from the Village Board focusing on oversight related to hiring, promotions, and discipline. Page 24 of 82 7 | P a g e • Joint Emergency Services Committee – Provides review and comments regarding current and future fire and EMS budgets and expenditures. The committee is made up of two representatives from Fontana, two representatives from Williams Bay, the Fontana Fire Chief, and one representative from Walworth Township. • Fontana / Williams Bay Joint Board Meetings – Fontana and Williams Bay Village Boards meet regularly to review EMS operations and budget status. Fontana FD provides monthly reports with response data, department updates, staffing summary, and EMS response information. • Fontana Fire Chiefs routinely attend Village Board and Committee meetings for all jurisdictions served by the Fontana Fire Department. Chief officers also attend Walworth County governance meetings and are active in Mutual Aid Box Alarm System (MABAS) Division 103. Williams Bay Considerations - The following would be additional governance and oversight for Williams Bay fire service delivery under options 2 and 3. • Fontana Fire Department will provide full responsibility for Williams Bay fire services. • The Joint Emergency Services committee language from the EMS IGA would be added. • The Fontana Fire Department and Fontana Fire Chief would be recognized as the authority having jurisdiction for Williams Bay Fire service delivery. • Fontana to deliver regular reports including: o Response data and performance metrics. o Staffing updates. o Budget and cost tracking. o Fire inspections and short-term rentals. • Fontana to participate in Williams Bay joint governance structure, including, but not limited to: o Village Board and committee meetings. o Joint Emergency Services Committee representation. o Participation in Williams Bay planning commission meetings. o Ensure transparency, accountability, and intergovernmental coordination. B. ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE The Fontana Fire Department follows a para-military structure with several layers of fire department officers. Span of control is designed to have each officer responsible for no more than six personnel. Chief Positions (3) • Fire Chief - Oversees all department operations- part-time salaried position (30 hours/week) • One Deputy Chief – Hourly part-time assigned to weekdays that the Chief is not in the office. • One paid-on-call (POC) Assistant Chief - Responds direct from home/work to emergency incidents and serves as incident command or support on emergency incidents. Captains and Lieutenants (4) • One POC Captain - Responds directly to emergency incidents and is responsible for uniforms. • One full-time Duty Crew Captain assigned to a 24-hour shift; oversees shift personnel and Lieutenants. Manages scheduling, station operations, technology, and onboarding. • Two full-time Duty Crew Lieutenants manage daily 24-hour shift operations (up to six staff), with one overseeing EMS/reporting and the other handling fire training, apparatus, and equipment. Mutual Aid Officers - Fontana Fire works closely with Williams Bay, Walworth, and Delavan Township to provide additional officers as needed. MABAS also automatically dispatches Chiefs to larger incidents. Page 25 of 82 8 | P a g e Fontana FD Organiztioinal Chart Fontana Fire Department’s organizational and job descriptions Policy (P-100.1) clearly defines fire department chain of command and structure. The Fontana Fire Department has separate job descriptions for each full-time, part-time, and paid-on-call position within the organization. Span of control is limited to no more than six personnel working under one supervisor. Williams Bay Considerations –One additional POC Assistant Chief and potential of up to two additional POC officers could be added under options 2 and 3. • Lateral officer transfers from Williams Bay would be considered based on recommendations from the Village of Williams Bay. • Hiring and promotions would be required to follow the Fontana hiring policies and Police and Fire Commission promotional requirements. • Additional Officers would receive an on-call stipend of five hours of pay per week. C. LEVEL OF SERVICE Williams Bay Fire Department averages 104 fire incidents annually within the village, along with 20 mutual aid responses to other municipalities, based on five-year Walworth County Dispatch data (excluding EMS incidents). Fontana Fire Department has the resources to provide effective fire protection services to Williams Bay, with capacity to expand as needed. Fire incidents in Williams Bay are primarily fire alarms (69%), other fire-related calls such as dumpster fires, odor investigation etc. (19%), and vehicle accidents (5%). These incidents are typically handled by a single unit with two to three personnel over 30–45 minutes. Full-time and part-time staff from the Williams Bay or Fontana stations can consistently manage these calls without relying on paid-on-call personnel or mutual aid, while maintaining the ability to handle additional incidents within the Fontana FD response area. Page 26 of 82 9 | P a g e Use of Mutual Aid - Large incidents requiring additional apparatus and personnel would be supplemented by paid-on-call staff or by recalling full-time and part-time personnel. In rare cases, automatic aid, mutual aid, or the Mutual Aid Box Alarm System (MABAS) would be utilized. A recent example is a Fontana structure fire on April 8, 2026. The initial dispatch included all Fontana fire resources, along with engines from Williams Bay, Walworth, Hebron and Lake Geneva, three additional Chiefs, and an ambulance from Elkhorn to provide EMS on scene. Fontana responded with 18 firefighters, EMTs, and officers, staffing one ambulance, three fire apparatus, and the fire boat. Insurance Service Organization (ISO) – CLASS 3 – Fontana Fire earned a Class 3 ISO rating in 2023 on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being the best and 10 the worst. Class 3 departments are generally considered high- performing, well-equipped, and capable of effectively handling serious fires (Elmore, 2025). ISO ratings are commonly used to help establish commercial fire insurance rates, with some insurers also applying them to residential properties (WI DSPS, 2025). Fontana Fire would work to improve Williams Bays ISO rating. Williams Bay Considerations – Williams Bay faces several current and emerging challenges in fire service delivery. Fontana Fire would address these through robust fire inspection, public education, and community risk reduction programs, and has experience in providing planning input with the Fontana Plan Commission team. The following examples are areas with a potential impact on fire protection for Williams Bay. • Preserve Development – The planned transition of 137 acres of the former George Williams College into a combined nature preserve and resort. • Downtown Master Plan – Ongoing comprehensive planning for downtown Williams Bay, with several completed projects, will continue to shape emergency service demands. • Kishwauketoe Nature Preserve – Requires support for natural area protection, large events, wildland response, and medical calls in remote locations. • Residential Developments – Recent large-scale housing growth requires awareness of evolving construction types, water supply considerations, and resource deployment. • Williams Bay Public Schools - Fontana Fire already provides services to area schools and offers a strong public education program, including fire extinguisher training, fire safety classes, CPR/first aid, and safety outreach for both students and staff. • Geneva Lakefront – Fontana maintains extensive water-response capabilities and regularly trains for water-related and on-shore emergencies. Page 27 of 82 10 | P a g e The 2024 Public Administration Associates study relied on Wisconsin Department of Administration population projections to estimate minimal growth for Williams Bay and Fontana (PAA, 2024). Based on the factors outlined above, actual growth may exceed these projections, and Fontana has the resources to remain flexible in meeting increased service demands. D. PROFESSIONAL / PAID-ON-CALL / VOLUNTEER STAFFING METHODS Fontana Fire Department’s 40 members function as a combination of career, part-time, and paid-on-call personnel, providing daily staffing of five 24-hour positions and a sixth daytime position, supplemented by paid-on-call staff. A roster of Fontana personnel, including year of hire and certifications, is included as “Appendix A”. The following is a breakdown of Fontana FD’s current and new-hire personnel: • Chief Positions – The Chief and Deputy Chief split weekday office hours from 9 am to 5 pm. The Assistant Chief is a paid-on call position responding from home or work. • 13 Full-time Positions – Daily staffing of four 24-hour positions (365 days/yr). o Ten firefighter paramedics and three firefighters EMTs / Advanced EMTs. o Twelve assigned to one of three 24/48 hours off shifts. o One assigned as Kelly Shift – Two 24-hour shifts per week. • Two Permanent Part-time Positions - Assigned to a full-time shift, with an emphasis on weekend coverage; working three 24-hour shifts per two-week period (36 hours/week). • Six Part-time Personnel – Required to be Fire and EMT certified. o Minimum requirements of 30 hours per month. o Shift options include day (7 am to 5 pm) and night positions (5 pm to 7 am). • 16 Paid-on-call Personnel - POC members respond to the station as needed and may work part-time hours if qualified. Several EMT POC members are full-time college students who work part-time during the summer months. o One POC Captain. o Nine Firefighters / Firefighter EMT’s. o Five EMS only certified personnel (EMT / Advanced EMTs). Daily In-Station Staffing - Current minimum daily staffing is three firefighter/EMS personnel per day with at least two certified paramedics. Minimum staffing will be increased to four per day once current new hires have completed the onboarding process. The following is a breakdown of how in-station staffing is assigned. Page 28 of 82 11 | P a g e Five-Year Historical Staffing Model - Fontana has been providing full-time 24-hour staffing since 2018 with gradual increases to meet service delivery to Williams Bay and Walworth Township. The following is a summary of scheduled hours from 2022 throught April, 2026. Ability to Attract and Retain Firefighters – Recruiting volunteer (POC) firefighters and EMS personnel has been increasingly difficult over the past 10 years for both Fontana and Williams Bay due to a combination of demographic, economic, and operational factors. Fontana FD has addressed these challenges by implementing full-time and part-time staffing models, while maintaining a POC base, and developing strong partnerships with Williams Bay and Walworth Township. Fontana has been fortunate in maintaining and recruiting a core group of paid-on-call personnel while adding full-time and part-time coverage. This level of integration is uncommon in the fire service, as paid-on-call engagement often declines or altogether eliminated following the transition to full-time staffing models. Fontana maintains an open hiring policy for paid-on-call personnel residing within 15 miles of the Fontana Fire Department and currently fully staffed for full-time and part-time positions. Fontana completed a hiring process in January 2026, resulting in 12 qualified applicants. The hiring list is effective through March 2027, with two accepted offers for employment. Utilization to Meet Coverage Requirements – Fontana Fire Department serves Fontana, Williams Bay, and Walworth Township as one unified system, rather than independent entities sharing resources. The goal for emergency service delivery is to deploy all personnel and apparatus based on need and proximity, not jurisdictional boundaries. This has been successful in responding to second and third simultaneous incidents. Paid-on-call, part-time, and off-duty full-time staff supplement on-duty personnel when necessary. Fontana’s current staffing model effectively meets the needs of all municipalities served. The Village of Fontana has no current plans to seek additional referendum funding to maintain dependable emergency services. Fontana operates as a cross-staffed agency, with most personnel serving in both fire suppression and EMS roles. This structure provides a flexible, capable, and cost-effective emergency response system that can adapt to changing service demands while significantly reducing reliance on mutual aid assistance. Page 29 of 82 12 | P a g e Union Working Relationship - Fontana’s full-time firefighter and EMS employees voted to organize in 2023, and the Village entered into a Collective Bargaining Agreement effective from 2024 to 2026 as associate members of the Janesville International Association of Firefighters Local 580. The Village and Department administration maintain a strong working relationship with the Local and view the union as enhancing employee relations while contributing to a higher level of professionalism. Local 580 has endorsed Fontana Fire Department's proposed fire service coverage for Williams Bay, highlighting several benefits of utilizing union firefighters (Appendix B). Williams Bay Considerations – Williams Bay paid-on-call personnel encouraged to apply with Fontana (15- mile residency restrictions would apply). Applicants would follow the Fontana hiring process (criminal/medical background checks and Police and Fire Commission approval). Additional staffing considerations are included under Section J. “Implementation”. E. FUTURE GROWTH The Fontana Fire Department has successfully navigated significant changes over the past ten years by adapting fire and EMS operations and implementing collaborative intergovernmental agreements with Williams Bay for EMS services and with Walworth Township for fire and EMS services. Fontana has remained resilient by adjusting staffing models and equipment to meet these challenges, including transitioning from contracted EMS services to employing full-time and part-time municipal staff. Impact on Williams Bay Fire Protection Needs One way that Fontana and Williams Bay effectively met service delivery needs was through public support of joint referendum funding and the implementation of cooperative agreements with neighboring communities. The Fontana Fire Department is confident that the current working relationship for emergency medical services with the Village of Williams Bay can be readily expanded to include fire services. The existing cross-staffed personnel funded by Williams Bay will further enhance the effectiveness of a cohesive and integrated emergency service delivery model. Rapid growth of any organization can be both beneficial and potentially challenging if not managed properly. Over the past year and a half, Fontana Fire has carefully prepared for, and implemented, expanded service to Walworth Township while maintaining the highest level of service across all communities served. Fontana considers its primary service area the highest priority and works to ensure that mutual aid is truly “mutual”. Fontana FD rarely requires mutual aid for routine responses but does utilize neighboring departments for Chief officer responses and larger incidents such as structure fires. Village of Walworth – In addition to Williams Bay, Fontana Fire also maintains a strong working relationship with the Walworth Fire Department. In 2025, the Fontana Village President, Village Administrator, and Fire Chief met with their counterparts in the Village of Walworth to discuss current and future collaboration. The meeting confirmed that the Walworth Fire Department has no current plans to pursue partnerships with neighboring communities and will continue operating as a stand-alone fire department for the foreseeable future. A successful fire referendum in 2025 has already contributed to increased stability in service delivery. Page 30 of 82 13 | P a g e Fontana has a long-standing agreement with the Village of Walworth for Paramedic intercept services which was utilized 16 times in 2025. Paramedic intercepts require a single paramedic to respond and provides expanded advanced life support experience for Fontana FD personnel while addressing the ongoing competition for limited Paramedic employees in Walworth County. Delavan Township – Soon after approving the Walworth Township IGA, Fontana Fire Department reached out to Delavan Township Fire Department to improve response coverage for the northwest portion of the Township. Those discussions resulted in an intergovernmental agreement assigning primary coverage to a small area of Walworth Township and establishing a dual response area including Inspiration Ministries and Faith Christian School. Fontana Fire’s working relationship with Delavan Township Fire in this dual response area has been highly effective, and there is potential to amend the current agreement if Fontana FD is selected to provide fire service to Williams Bay. Fontana Fire can manage routine fire incidents in Williams Bay and could utilize resources from Delavan Township for larger incidents such as structure fires or mass casualty events. Walworth Township – Fontana entered into an intergovernmental agreement with Walworth Township in 2024 for Fire and EMS protection effective January of 2025. The Walworth Town Board is supporting Fontana Fire Department expanding services to Williams Bay. Walworth Township further understands that there may be increases in contributions to expanding services to all municipalities served by Fontana FD. A letter supporting fire services to Williams Bay was provided by Walworth Township and their Board approved support at their 4/21/26 meeting (Appendix C). F. EQUIPMENT / VEHICLES Fontana Fire Department provides a highly reliable and well-equipped fleet of fire apparatus, complemented by strong water response resources, delivering a level of service that can fully support and enhance fire protection for the Village of Williams Bay. The following is a summary of Fontana’s apparatus. Page 31 of 82 14 | P a g e • Engines – Fontana’s fire engines (quad and engine) are in good working order and pass annual testing. Squad 371 is equipped with a system for filling self-contained breathing apparatus bottles on the scene of emergency incidents and serves a mobile command post. Engine 371 is equipped with an on-board foam system and 1000 gallons of water. Fontana has a replacement Engine ordered with Custom Fire out of Osceola WI for a Sutphen fire engine with 1,500 gallons of water, a 2,000-gpm pump and on- board foam system (2028 Delivery). • Quint – In the fire service a “quint” is a versatile ladder truck with a pump, water tank, fire hose, an aerial device (ladder), and ground ladders. Fontana specifically chose a quint over a traditional ladder truck for its versatility and ability to function in limited access subdivisions commonly found in Fontana and Williams Bay. • Tender– Walworth Township is required to supply one Tender for Fontana operations. • Brush Fire Apparatus – Fontana has a pickup truck and recently took delivery of a 2026 6X6 utility vehicle (also supplied by Walworth Township) for grass fires and access to remote locations. Both have water and pumping capabilities. • Water and Specialty Rescue – Fontana is well equipped for Williams Bay water incidents including a fire boat which is staged at the Abbey Harbor, an air boat for winter operations, and a multitude of advance water rescue equipment (ROV and towable sonar). The fireboat is equipped with a 1500- gpm pump for on-water and lakefront fire operations in addition to water rescue events. Fontana also has an enclosed trailer for water rescue and technical rescue equipment. • EMS Apparatus - Fontana has four ambulances; three paramedic level ambulances (one provided by Williams Bay) and one EMT level ambulance shared with the Village of Walworth. A 2023 Tahoe functions as a paramedic intercept / command vehicle and tows the special operations or UTV trailers. Fontana has a replacement ambulance on order through Lifeline with anticipated delivery of 2027. • Apparatus Maintenance - Maintenance for Fontana apparatus is primarily performed by Fontana DPW staff. Use of an on-site mechanic provides rapid availability to address issues and reduces the overall cost of maintenance. Repairs and testing outside of staff’s ability is handled by Siren Services or other qualified third-party repair / testing service. Williams Bay Apparatus consideration for option 3. • Williams Bay shall provide all initial apparatus and equipment required for responses from the Williams Bay fire station. Recommendation of implementing the same style lease agreement used for the Williams Bay Ambulance. The following are recommended for Williams Bay apparatus. o Williams Bay shall provide a minimum of one fire engine, one support vehicle, and work to choose one shared reserve fire engine. o Williams Bay will retain ownership of all initially supplied apparatus and equipment. o All Fire apparatus will be maintained and insured by the Village of Fontana. o Fontana Public Works will provide preventive maintenance, and Fontana will contract out with third party repair centers for work outside the scope of Fontana Public Works. o All Fontana and Williams Bay fire apparatus, boats, and fire equipment repairs will be split according to cost sharing calculations; except for those included in the Williams Bay EMS and Walworth Township IGAs (WB Ambulance, Township Tender, & Township UTV). Fontana and Walworth Township would remain responsible for the two Fontana Ambulances. o Williams Bay will not be required to contribute to the current fire engine and ambulance on order with Fontana Fire Department. o Future replacement apparatus cost sharing will be agreed upon between Fontana and Williams Bay Village Boards Page 32 of 82 15 | P a g e G. FACILITIES Fontana currently operates out of an outdated Public Safety Building on Fontana Boulevard with plans to construct a new Public Safety Building at the corner of Highway 67 and Wild Duck Road. Current Facilities – The Fontana Public Safety Building is shared with the Fontana Police Department and has been adapted over the years to accommodate overnight fire department staffing of up to five personnel. The apparatus bay currently houses two fire engines, one ladder truck, two ambulances, one airboat/UTV, one tender, one SUV, one brush truck, and a special operations trailer. The facility also includes a small training room, sleeping quarters for five personnel, a workout area, kitchen and dining area, living area, utility room, and two separate office areas. The Village constructed a Fire Department auxiliary storage building at the Public Works location in 2025, capable of housing two additional apparatus and spare equipment. The building is used to store the fireboat and UTV during the winter months and the airboat during the summer. Future Fontana Public Safety Building – The Village of Fontana has actively been moving to construct a new public safety building. The following summary of steps taken is available on the Village of Fontana website. • Site Study – (Village of Fontana Site, 2025) Study by Ruekert Milke to investigate all viable building sites for a combined public safety building or separate police and fire facilities. • Public Information Sessions – (Village of Fontana info, 2026) Two public informational sessions were held to review the site study and provide feedback through a standardized questionnaire. Responses supported a joint public safety building on Wild Duck Road and approved by the Village Board. • New Site Study – (Village of Fontana – New Site, 2026) The Wild Duck Road option was expanded to include relocating Wild Duck Road and abandoning a secondary access road (Dade Rd). The proposed site “4c-Duck Pond Central” improves response times and addresses traffic concerns. The Village Board interviewed three architectural firms and plans to move forward with a selection soon. The next step will be choosing a construction management firm and potentially beginning construction as early as spring 2027. These plans include fire department facilities sufficient to meet the response needs of Fontana and Walworth Township, as well as support functions such as administration, training, and reserve apparatus/equipment storage for Fontana and any additional communities served. Impact on Williams Bay Fire Protection Needs – The Public Administration Associates (PAA) study completed in 2024 addresses the possibility of a single station servicing Fontana and Williams Bay; however, states under section IV(A) that “Even if a single entity were providing Fire/Emergency Medical Service to both communities, we would recommend a two-station model”. The study further provides several response heat maps showing response times best provided from the current Williams Bay fire station. When specifically referring to fire responses the study refers to NFPA 1710 for response times and that “regardless of population density: a travel time of less than 4 minutes and a time of less than 90 seconds for turn out from the station once the alarm is received, together with a 30-second dispatch time” (PAA, 2024). Fontana currently meets or exceeds NFPA 1710 standards based on fire and EMS apparatus arriving on scene rather than a firefighter arriving in their personal vehicle with limited capabilities. Page 33 of 82 16 | P a g e Although it is possible to provide fire service from a station outside of Williams Bay, the preferred option would be to establish a satellite station staffed by a cross-trained crew responding to fire or EMS emergencies. Administration, training, and reserve apparatus could be located at a separate remote facility to reduce costs and redundancy. This is also addressed in the PAA study at the start of Section 2 stating “At a minimum, a new (Williams Bay) station should provide 24-hour accommodation for the two firefighter/paramedic staff members. To properly plan for the future, however, a new station should be designed to accommodate a fully- staffed ambulance and engine company, or six personnel” (PAA, 2024). The following are considerations under option 3 for fire service delivery. • Williams Bay to provide a fire station for fire and EMS responses. o Suitable for 24-hour accommodation including adequate dining, living, sleeping, workspace, company level training, and workout area. o Climate controlled parking for one ambulance, one fire engine and one support vehicle. Additional Williams Bay apparatus may be stationed in Williams Bay. • Fontana Fire Station o The current Fontana / Williams Bay IGA includes language regarding shared administrative and training areas. Shared reserve fire apparatus and equipment storage in Fontana may need to be considered. o Administrative functions, primary training facilities, reserve apparatus, and equipment would be primarily stored in Fontana. H. DEPARTMENT INVENTORY Fontana maintains a detailed inventory of all small tools and equipment using our fire records software, Imagetrend. Items are categorized and entered in Imagetrend when placed into service. A detailed list of equipment is provided under “Appendix D.” Several full-time personnel have been assigned responsibility for specific areas of tools and equipment such as extrication equipment, self-contained breathing apparatus, saws, air monitoring devices, radios, water rescue equipment, hoses and nozzles, ladders, and medical equipment. This allows for accountability for all areas of equipment without overloading one or two individuals. The following are equipment considerations for option 3. • Williams Bay will provide all equipment required to meet National Fire Protection Administration (NFPA) standards on Williams Bay fire apparatus. This shall include, but not be limited to, self- contained breathing apparatus, saws, hand tools, ladders, extrication equipment, radios, data terminals, lights, safety equipment, water rescue equipment, and monitoring devices (4-gas, natural gas, CO) • All Fontana and Williams Bay fire equipment repairs and replacement will be split according to cost sharing calculations. I. OPERATIONS Fontana Fire Department operations are strategically divided among full-time, part-time, and paid-on-call personnel to maximize efficiency and ensure effective use of on-duty and paid-on-call resources. Page 34 of 82 17 | P a g e Inspections – Fontana employs five full-time and several part-time state-certified fire inspectors. Occupancies in Fontana and Walworth Township are inspected on a biannual basis using shift personnel. • Fontana can provide routine Williams Bay fire inspections and/or short-term rental inspections using certified on-duty personnel. • Recommendation to continue utilizing Williams Bay’s current fire inspector for non-routine inspections and plan review role could be expanded to Fontana and Walworth Township. Fire Prevention – A designated fire prevention team coordinates public education efforts, including school programs, station tours, community events, and safety outreach for assisted living facilities. • Provide public education programs for Williams Bay local schools including fire safety materials. • Assist with community events such as Corn and Brat Fest, Kishwauketo 5K, Williams Bay High School sporting events, Truck-a-Polooza, and Boo in the Bay. Fire Records Management – Fontana uses the Imagetrend platform for all fire and EMS records. The department recently transitioned to the new national records platform of National Emergency Response Information System (NERIS) and was one of the first agencies in Walworth County to obtain compliance. Fontana is a data driven department with the capability of pulling detailed call data back to 2010. Formal Policies & Guidelines – Fontana uses Microsoft Teams to easily share operating documents among personnel. Policies established administrative and daily fire station activities. Guidelines provide a framework for common emergency scene operations. CPR Education – Fontana offers CPR training through Healthline First Aid, providing public and private classes for residents, businesses, schools, and nonprofit organizations. The program includes a pool of instructors, five CPR mannequins, and AED trainers, along with Stop the Bleed and first aid courses. Risk Management – Community risk reduction remains a priority, with two full-time staff members certified as Wisconsin community paramedics allowing for advanced in-home supportive care. Planned initiatives include home safety visits, smoke detector installation and replacement, and post-hospital follow-up care. Training – Fontana Fire Department maintains a strong commitment to training. Daily training objectives are scheduled for full-time staff, monthly drills are conducted for POC personnel, live fire training occurs at least twice per year, and personnel regularly attend conferences, seminars, and hands-on training sessions. The following are additional training considerations for Williams Bay fire service deliver • Maintain daily training for full-time personnel and monthly drills for paid-on-call staff in Williams Bay and Fontana locations working with neighboring fire departments. • Integrate training with Williams Bay Police and Public Works departments. Water Rescue – Fontana is one of the most well-equipped and highly trained water rescue agencies in southeast Wisconsin. Recent responses include aid to Racine, Kenosha, Pleasant Prairie, Rock County, and Madison. These resources would be directly beneficial in serving Williams Bay. Technical Rescue – Fontana has three full-time personnel trained in technical rescue and is one of three departments in Walworth County leading the development of a regional specialty rescue team. Page 35 of 82 18 | P a g e Emergency Management and Disaster Preparedness – Fontana has adopted an Emergency Action Plan that is regularly updated and overseen by a Village committee. Training includes preparedness for large-scale incidents such as tornadoes, flooding, mass casualty events, hostile incidents, and hazardous material responses. Support for Williams Bay emergency management and disaster responses would include: • Severe weather incidents preparation and response. • Mass casualty and active shooter incident training school districts and local/County law enforcement. • Assist with Williams Bay’s Emergency Response Plan. • Work with Williams Bay Police and Public Works regarding disaster responses. A recent study, One Step Ahead, completed by Policy Forum for the Walworth County Fire/EMS study Committee categorized Fontana Fire Department as providing a “High Level of Stability”. The Study further stated that “The Williams Bay Fire Department already contracts with the Fontana Fire Department for EMS. Given that it likely will struggle to maintain its fire services in the future under its existing POC model, a full consolidation with Fontana may be the next logical step” (Policy Forum, 2025) J. IMPLEMENTATION & RECOMMENDATIONS The Fontana Village Board approved several options for Fire Service Delivery to the Village of Williams Bay. All options can be implemented immediately upon approval, or gradually over the next 12 months based on the direction of the Williams Bay Board and staff. All proposals are based on a percentage of the fire budget, in the same manner EMS costs are allocated between Fontana, Williams Bay, and Walworth Township. The following options are being proposed for Fontana Fire Department to provide fire services to the Village of Williams Bay. Cost Calculations - Fire expenses would be distributed based on a two-year rolling average of fire responses (based on dispatch data) to addresses within Williams Bay and Fontana. Mutual aid and Walworth Township responses would be accounted for as part of the calculations. Use of population was considered; however, population can vary greatly due to non-resident property owners and high tourism fluctuations in both Williams Bay and Fontana. We also looked at assessed tax value as a consideration, but this can create perceived unfairness based on high value lakefront homes and several non-profit occupancies. After reviewing all options, call volume remains the most direct measurement of usage. When comparing 2024 and 2025 data, the number of fire incidents dispatched were extremely close with 219 total responses in Fontana and 207 in Williams Bay resulting in 51.4% to 48.6% respectively. Future demand for fire service can fluctuate greatly and a two-year rolling average will provide accountability for increases or decreases in fire service demand for each community. The following is an example of how the costs would be distributed using 2024 and 2025 response data for the 2026 Fontana Fire Department Budget. 2026 Fire Budget Distribution Example Walworth Township contributes 15.13% to Fontana Fire operational line items. The remaining 84.87% is split between Fontana and Williams Bay based on responses. Page 36 of 82 19 | P a g e 2026 Fontana Fire Department Expense – Current Fontana Fire Department expenses are categorized as either Rescue (EMS) or Fire operations with the majority going to EMS and full-time staffing. Fire expenses are split between Fontana and Walworth Township based on a similar two-year rolling average. The following are 2026 Fontana FD operating expenses distributions (excluding capital). Costs distributions examples are based on fire budget expenses and reflect proposed distribution between Fontana, Williams Bay, and Walworth Township based on 2024 and 2025 fire incident totals. OPTION 1 – WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP WITH WILLIAMS BAY FIRE DEPARTMENT The Williams Bay Fire Department is highly respected with a long-standing commitment to serving Williams Bay residents. Under option one, Fontana would respond to all Williams Bay fire incidents with Williams Bay Fire Department. Williams Bay Fire Department would continue to operate independently and maintain its own separate personnel, equipment and fire station. • Two Fontana Fire / EMS personnel stationed in Williams Bay would respond to all fire incidents. • Fontana would respond with Williams Bay, providing personnel and apparatus from Fontana. • Current Fontana Fire Budget operating costs would be split based on call percentage calculations. • Fontana Fire / EMS personnel stationed in Williams Bay would continue to serve Williams Bay, Fontana, and Walworth Township with a staffed ambulance. • Standardized policies and procedures between Williams Bay and Fontana. Option 1 would result in duplication of fire expenses to Williams Bay and provide limited operational cohesiveness; however, Fontana is willing to continue serving as a secondary fire service if desired. OPTION 2 – FONTANA PROVIDES FIRE SERVICE FROM FONTANA FIRE STATION Option 2 assumes transitioning Williams Bay and Fontana into a single Fire Department. Fontana Fire Department would assume responsibility for Williams Bay fire protection with all fire apparatus responding from the Fontana Fire Station. Williams Bay would have one ambulance staffed in their station. • Two Fontana Fire / EMS personnel stationed in Williams Bay would respond to fire incidents with an ambulance if available. • Fontana would respond to Williams Bay fire incidents with personnel and apparatus from Fontana. • Forty percent increase in insurance and fuel and twenty percent increase in other operating expenses. • Fontana Fire / EMS personnel stationed in Williams Bay would continue to serve Williams Bay, Fontana, and Walworth Township. Page 37 of 82 20 | P a g e OPTION 3 – FONTANA PROVIDES FIRE SERVICE FROM FONTANA AND WILLIAMS BAY Fontana Fire Department would assume responsibility for all Williams Bay Fire protection with fire apparatus responding from Williams Bay and/or Fontana fire stations. Fontana would staff the Williams Bay Fire station with personnel and respond with fire apparatus to fire incidents and with an ambulance to Williams Bay EMS incidents. Williams Bay station staffing options are offered as 3A, 3B, or 3C. • Fontana Fire / EMS personnel stationed in Williams Bay would respond to fire incidents with an ambulance or fire apparatus based on call type. • Fontana would respond to Williams Bay fire incidents from the Fontana station as needed. • Fire Inspections – Same as option 2. • Additional 300 hours of Paid-on-call hours for large incident responses, training, public education, and meetings. • Options under 3B and 3C provide additional part-time or full-time Williams Bay station staffing. • Williams Bay to provide a fire station with adequate facilities for 24-hour staffing, and front-line fire and EMS apparatus. Fontana shall maintain a location for reserve apparatus. • Fire Apparatus –Apparatus to be provided by Williams Bay to Fontana via Lease. o One front line fire engine. o One Support Vehicle for POC response & utility. o One brush truck (optional). o One UTV (optional). o One reserve engine shared between Fontana and Williams Bay (TBD) • Twenty percent increase in operating expenses based on call volume increases. • Williams Bay would not be required to contribute to the purchase of current on-order apparatus. • Maintenance for all fire apparatus shall be shared between Williams Bay, Walworth Township and Fontana with 40% increase in maintenance, fuel, insurance, fire supplies, and equipment expenses. • Fontana Fire / EMS personnel stationed in Williams Bay would continue to serve Williams Bay, Fontana, and Walworth Township. • Recommend modification of IGA with Delavan Township. 3A Staffing – Current In-Station Staffing of Two 24-hour Personnel Staffing Williams Bay • Williams Bay fire station staffing - Two 24-hour dual certified (fire/EMS) personnel. • Fontana fire station staffing – Three 24-hour personnel plus Chief (day) position. 3B Staffing– Two 24-hour personnel PLUS- 3rd part-time position staffed daytime hours (10 hrs.– 365 days) Option 3B provides a transition to 24-hour fire protection with three during daytime hours. Fire apparatus could respond with two personnel at night. Page 38 of 82 21 | P a g e 3C – Three 24-hour personnel adding a third 24-hour part-time position -Fontana FD Recommendation • Addition of three permanent part-time positions with WRS contributions. • Health Benefits not included with calculations. • Williams Bay fire station staffing – Three 24-hour personnel. • Fontana fire station staffing - Three 24-hour plus Chief (day) position. Full-Time Comparison - The option of additional full-time personnel was not approved by Fontana or Walworth Township Boards. Full-time budget considerations are included for comparison purposes only. • Addition of health benefits, paid time off, overtime, and increase in WRS. • Fontana does not anticipate the need for additional full-time firefighters in the foreseeable future. Full-time staffing calculations were included to illustrate the cost savings associated with the current staffing model, which relies on part-time and permanent part-time personnel. Full-time staffing projections may be beneficial to support long-term cost projections and long-term referendum considerations. Implementation • Immediate or phased implementation options o Fontana has already committed to providing automatic aid to all Williams Bay fire responses throughout the end of 2026 at no cost to Williams Bay. This agreement was approved by Fontana and Walworth Township Boards and could transfer to full fire service immediately. o A pro-rated agreement could be entered into at any time in 2026. o A graduated transition from Option 1 to Options 2 or 3 could also be implemented. o Fontana would recommend transitioning to Option 3 at the start of 2027. • Coordinate transition of services, including: o Personnel integration including an open hiring process for all Williams Bay paid-on-call personnel wishing to work for Fontana Fire Department. o Operational alignment to ensure all fire department operations are transferred seamlessly. o Policy and procedure standardization taking into consideration current Williams Bay mutual aid agreements and intergovernmental arrangements. • It will be the highest priority to ensure no interruption to emergency service delivery during transition Page 39 of 82 22 | P a g e CONCLUSION In closing, the Fontana Fire Department is confident in its ability to provide reliable, efficient, and forward- thinking fire protection services to the Village of Williams Bay. We believe that building upon the already successful EMS partnership offers a practical and seamless path toward a more integrated and effective emergency response system. Our approach emphasizes maintaining strong service to all communities served while enhancing operational coordination, response capabilities, and long-term sustainability. If selected to provide Fire service, Fontana recommends future considerations to merge the two separate Williams Bay / Fontana IGAs into one agreement moving toward more of a true “district” style organization. We feel it is important to wait until fire services are well established prior to taking this next step. The Fontana Fire Department appreciates the thoughtful consideration of this proposal and welcomes the opportunity to further discuss service options, implementation strategies, and answer any questions the Village Board or committees may have at our April 29th meeting. We look forward to continued collaboration in support of public safety for the residents and visitors of Williams Bay. Page 40 of 82 23 | P a g e REFERENCES 1.

The cost of fire services would be proportional to actual expenditures rather than an arbitrary budget amount. EMS Invoicing History - Williams Bay and Fontana have been sharing expenses based on a percentage since 2022 for emergency medical services with Fontana consistently coming in under budget. The following is a history of EMS budget and actual billing to Williams Bay compared to referendum funding. Williams Bay EMS Service Budget & Invoicing Fire Service Cost Proposal - Fontana is recommending following a similar model for Williams Bay fire service with a percentage contribution to actual fire budget expenses. Examples of detailed 2026 fire expenses and how they would be distributed are listed under “Appendix E”. The following was taken into consideration. • Increases in operational costs for Options two and three were compared to current Williams Bay fire, EMS, and dive line items. Several areas of savings were identified by combining resources. • Operating Costs do not include capital purchase items.
