Police Chief Way inquired if fire prevention, education, inspection, and investigation be included <br />on the list of services provided. <br /> <br />Consensus of the Board was that those issues should be added. <br /> <br />Board Member Paplham inquired if anything should be included regarding the Burlington <br />Northern railroad. <br /> <br />Chairperson Anderson suggested that mass casualty might be another issue to add. He also <br />recommended that with the high/low rescue, instead of saying "not provided", indicate how it <br />will be provided. <br /> <br />Board Member Wald stated that she wants to make sure the school is covered in a terrorist issue. <br /> <br />Chairperson Anderson stated that active gun would be Police responding. If it is a bomb <br />situation, the Fire Department would be involved.

It has been suggested that it would make more sense to call the fire <br />station along Armstrong Boulevard, Station #1, since it is now the primary station. <br /> <br />Consensus of the Board was to change the station along Armstrong Boulevard to Fire Station #1. <br /> <br />Public Safety Board/January 16, 2003 <br /> Page 5 of 7 <br /> <br /> <br />
