BOARD INPUT <br /> <br />Chairman Pearson inquired as to the status of the Fire Department with respect to members, <br />equipment and garage remodeling. <br /> <br />Mr. Hoeke replied that there are presently 26 members on the Fire Department roster; 3 <br />applicants are pending that have not had their medical physicals. Of the 26 members, 8 fire <br />fighters are available during daytime hours. With respect to equipment, when the pumper <br />comes on line the department will need hoses and minor gear for servicing trucks. <br /> <br />Mr. Bawden noted that he has witnessed the fire rig responding to a call and he was <br />impressed that the driver did not go over the speed limit. <br /> <br />Mr. Hartley noted that Mr. Hoeke is committed to the position of Fire Chief and maintains <br />regular office hours at City Hall, many of which are in the capacity of a fire inspector. Mr. <br />Hartley stated that a future Board agenda should include discussion of establishing a wage <br />for the Fire Chief and the impact, if any, to the feeling of those under his direction that they <br />are still a part of the same system as the Chief. <br /> <br />Motion by Mr. Pearson and seconded by Mr. Bawden to direct Mr. Hartley to research and <br />report back to the Fire Board regarding qualifications and requirements for designation as <br />an Assistant Fire Marshall and the related pay scale. <br /> <br />Motion carried.
