Top Aktenzeichen: 133.33 Fachbereich: Finanzen Bearbeitet von: Simon Mauterer Öffentlich-rechtlicher Vertrag zur einheitlichen Kostenregelung bei gegenseitiger Hilfeleistung der Feuerwehren (Überlandhilfe) I. Sachverhalt Der öffentlich-rechtliche Vertrag „Überlandhilfe der Feuerwehren im Landkreis Rastatt“ zur einheitlichen Regelung der Kostenersätze vom 16.05.2000 muss neu gefasst werden. Anlass der Neufassung sind einerseits Änderungen des Feuerwehrgesetzes, die es einzuarbeiten gilt, als auch das Interesse des Stadtkreises Baden-Baden dieser interkommunalen Vereinbarung beizutreten. Die als Anlage 1 beigefügte Entwurfsfassung des neuen öffentlich-rechtlichen Vertrages zur Regelung der Kosten bei der kommunalen Zusammenarbeit der Gemeindefeuerwehren im Einsatz (Überlandhilfe) wurde durch den Landkreis erarbeitet und mit den Bürgermeistern, den Verwaltungen sowie der Feuerwehr vorabgestimmt. Zur besseren Übersicht ist als Anlage 2 die Synopse der bisherigen und der geplanten vertraglichen Regelungen beigefügt. Die neuen vertraglichen Regelungen sehen eine grundsätzliche Kostenfreiheit für die Inanspruchnahme von Leistungen der Überlandhilfe vor (vgl. § 2). Allerdings gilt keine Kostenfreiheit, wenn ermittelte Dritte verpflichtet sind, die Kosten des Einsatzes und somit auch die Kosten der gegenseitigen Hilfeleistung zu erstatten. In diesen Fällen erfolgt eine Abrechnung der Kosten der Überlandhilfe halbstundenweise. Der Gemeinderat wird gebeten, dem
