Garden City Fire District by Randall Knight

 

 

The meeting was called to order a little late.  Four board members were present.  Nobody from the public was present.  The board approved last months minutes.

 

There were some issues getting paperwork for the auditor so a new policy for the paperwork is more easily accessible.  There was a discussion about obtaining free dirt but paying for trucking to get it to the annex lot would be required.  Randall also spoke to the people over the marina expansion about being willing to deliver the dredge dirt to the lot.  Randall would like to widen the entrance to the lot so that large trucks could turn into the lot easier.  The cost would be around $5000, including the cost of the culvert.  The board approved the request.

 

The documentation for the new brush truck purchase was turned in for the TRT grant, so the reimbursement should be coming in a few weeks.

 

The new brush truck (Brush 45) has been delivered and is getting the equipment put on.  The fire boat was pulled to do some lower unit, hull maintenance and cleaning. 

 

Callouts-1 car fire, 1 dumpster fire, 1 search and rescue assist, 9 medicals, 1 marine callout, 1 propane leak, 2 fire alarms, 1 CO alarm, 37 Short Term Rental inspections, 3 business inspections.
