North Dakota Code 57-15-51 – City emergency medical service funding
The governing body of a city may provide funding from revenues derived from its general fund levy authority for the purpose of subsidizing city emergency medical services. Whenever a tax for county emergency medical services is levied by a county, any city subsidizing city emergency medical services, shall upon written application to the county board of such county be exempted from such county tax levy. The city may set aside, as a depreciation expense, up to ten percent of its annual emergency medical service operating or subsidization budget in a dedicated emergency medical services sinking fund, deposited with the auditor for replacement of equipment and ambulances. The ten percent emergency medical services sinking fund may be in addition to the actual annual emergency medical services budget.
