GARDEN CITY, Utah. February 6, 2018. The Fire District monthly meeting was held at a special time of 1:00 PM with Chairman Randall Knight presiding. All members were in attendance except Howard Pope. No one from the general public were in attendance.
Randall stated the Commissioners had accepted Douglas Pincock as the new board member replacing Howard Pope. It was noted that it is a 4 year commitment. Randall thanked Pope for his years of service and valuable input to all of the discussions .
Fire Chief Mike Wahlberg reported on the progress of the station addition. He spoke concerning the possibility of purchasing a new thermal imaging camera. The old one has limitations. It is used to scan a structure for life inside as well as to assess any hot spots of the fire before entering. It’s an expensive instrument requiring special investment procedures by the board.
Mike reported on the responses for the month:
One fire call.
Five medical calls.
Semi roll over with an additional semi slide off which hit sheriff's deputy, Jon Nichole, who was directing traffic. He sustained non-life threatening injuries and has now been released from Logan Regional Hospital.
Two mutual aid requests to Cache County assisting with snowmobilers.
After a short meeting there was a closed session conducted in order to update the new board member on ongoing discussions. I was informed that there was no further actions required from that discussion.
