Chief Kapler informed the Board that the Fire Department would have two, full operating <br />stations. If it were for short term, we could probably work something out. <br /> <br />Chief Kapler referred to the plans. He noted the area in the lower left comer of the front page <br />and pointed out that these would be the offices - there would be work stations and there would <br />be space available for a Police Officer also. <br /> <br />Discussion ensued relating to an alarm system. Jim Way stated that the Police Department got a <br />good deal on theirs. <br /> <br />Chief Kapler presented a color rendering of the building. <br /> <br />Jim Way commented that there may be too much light from the windows to work comfortably. <br />Chief Kapler agreed that may be something to look at. <br /> <br />Chief Kapler reported to the Board that he would like to bring the basic design of Fire Station #2 <br />to the City Council on Tuesday. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec stated that the only thing he would question is too much light. He suggested <br />maybe flip-flopping offices and the conference room. <br /> <br />Chief Kapler stated that possibly they would not have floor to ceiling windows. <br /> <br />Jim Way stated that with all the glass proposed, you may be opening yourself up for a lot of <br />vandalism. How easy or hard are they to replace. <br /> <br />Chief Kapler stated that maybe they would have one row of windows. <br /> <br />Mayor Gamec stated that the design is attractive. <br /> <br />Jim Way asked about a drive through for the big tracks. <br /> <br />Chief Kapler responded that we have training on backing up. <br /> <br />Dave Lewandowski added that the Department has drills on backing up so it is not an issue. <br /> <br />A1 Pearson inquired how wide the doors are. <br /> <br />ChiefKapler stated they are 16 feet - the ones at City Hall downstairs are 12 feet. He added that <br />there will be metal crates for gear to allow air to circulate and promote faster drying. <br /> <br />A1 Pearson asked how they would re-do the glass. <br /> <br />Public Safety Board - September 9, 1999 <br /> Page 3 of 5 <br /> <br /> <br />
