Garden City
Fire District Meeting Minutes
The board
members present for the Feb 15th meeting were Randall Knight,
Doug Pincock, Barb Turnbow, Michael Lasswell and Rich Scheaffer. There
were no public attendees.
The board
would like to start working on the Satellite station lot after it is
purchased. An estimate for fill dirt for the lot and entryway was
$75,000 and discussions will be held about sewer and water connection fees.
The Privacy
policy statement for the districts website was updated to meet the state
auditor’s requirements. The board needs to develop a digital long term storage
site to make it easier to file and locate the various past, present and future
documents developed. Because the retention requirements are long term a
clerk email address was set up so each board member doesn’t have to store their
communications for extended periods of time. They have now been asked to
forward any items that need to be stored to the clerk email address. The
board would like to hire a part time intern this summer to sort through all of
the current documents that have been stored in several boxes to get them
organized and prepared for the digital storage site.
The fire
district provided cold water/ice rescue support for the Winterfest polar
plunge. Two of the firefighters were spotlighted for their contributions
to the community.
The board
wants to review the 5-year plan to help prepare for this year’s TRT grant
request. The new satellite station development will most likely be the
focus.
This month’s
responses were 1 structure fire, 1 vehicle fire, 1 medical, 15 short-term and 9
business inspections. Winter fire school was in January and 6
firefighters attended.
