Garden City Fire District Board Meeting

Leonard O’Reilly, Reporter
Rich Civic Times

Garden City, Utah.  January 8,  2020.  Chairman Randall Knight opened the meeting with two board members members absent.  It  was reported that the electrical  work has been done in the new part of the fire department meeting and is now  awaiting the four way inspection.

Two applications for a replacement board member have been submitted with  two or three more people more thinking about submitting.

Replacement ladder truck: Several units were discussed in the price range of $50,000 to $51,000, 55 to 65 foot. Chief Wahlberg is doing much research to find the best unit with the best features and price. There was a brief discussion as to whether a 4X4 is needed. It would require a much larger investment.

The department will not be doing the Cisco Disco chili cook-off breakfast this year. There will be the necessary ambulance with personnel in the water with cold water gear on at the Bear Lake Polar Plunge.

Five of the firefighters will attend a fire training in Saint George.

The responses for the month were:
1 - Fire alarm
1 - Medical
1 - Semi brake fire response
7 - Carbon Monoxide calls
