As you know, fire prevention is of the utmoat importance in our operations,
to preventproblems from occurring, ia a priority in the fire service.
We have, in the past, achieved our goals in this area. However, we are
experiencing difficulty at this time keeping abreast with the necessary
program. Presently, we are faced with more codes, more construction of
residential buildings, large apartment complexes, as well as expansion
in the industrial area. This has caused extreme demands for more people
in this division.
In my judgment, it is desirable and necessary to increase the Fire Prevention
Division by adding a Lt. Inspector. This change would give me 43 firefighters
and a11ow for an additional person in the Fire Prevention Division.
I can assure you that this change will not increase any overtime expenae.
I am sure you are aware of the fact that we have been handling our overtime
by several methods, one of which involves utilization of our 40 hour people
when a shortage is projected.
This also assures you that we will not be requesting any additional personnel
because of tFis change.
The difference in pay due to this change will amount to $67.00 bi—weekly
or $1,742. per year.
I am sure you understand that to be effective in this area.requires a
person to have an indepth knowledge of codes and regulations. This change
will allow this person to devote himself to acquiring and maintaining the
expertise necessary to perform effectively.
I hope this meets with your approval
Yours for a better fire service.
Calvin Phillipps, Fire Chief
