BERNALILLO — The intergovernmental agreement between Sandoval County and the town of Cochiti Lake renewal was approved by the county commissioners Aug. 13.
The purpose of the renewal is for Cochiti Lake’s Fire Department to provide fire protection and emergency medical services in the Cochiti Lake, Cochiti Pueblo and automatic aid to the northeast portion of the county. It also allows CLFD to utilize the Pena Blanca fire station for state fire funding purposes.
County Fire Chief Chris Bagley stated the department saw a heavy decrease in volunteer response in that area and the agreement was a response to that.
“I would like to say we do value our relationship with the Cochiti Lake Fire Department. We hope to continue this relationship,” he said.
The item was passed unanimously.
