Under the proposal, the average homeowner would be charged around $212 for the first year, with a 10% increase each year thereafter for four years.

Leaders say the fee will eventually raise about $7 million a year to help cover the costs of fire services in the city.

Monday’s meeting is scheduled to begin at 6:30 p.m.
