Speaker 6: 1.5. It'll be going up for long 
Speaker 10: prices of gas going to go. 
Speaker 5: Yep. Any other discussion 
Speaker 12: when does the 56 cents become? January 1st. [00:23:33] Okay, let's just sign one of those 57 and a half cent. 
Speaker 5: That was for last year. Was it for last year's 
Speaker 2: mileage was for Kevin Russell? 
Speaker 10: Yeah, but it wasn't for mileage that he did last year looking 
Speaker 2: up in my shirt. 
Speaker 12: [00:23:50] He's going to lose like 12 cents here. Let's see. His mileage was 
Speaker 7: from 
Speaker 12: Yeah, 113 2021. All 
Speaker 5: right. Well, we've approved it. I don't [00:24:05] think it's worth fighting about the 12 
Speaker 8: cents Bob Simon 
Speaker 5: be advised that moving forward. It's 56 cents, but we still need a motion to pay it. So Kevin, what's your 
Speaker 8: pleasure? Hi, Mike [00:24:20] Bob I Ross. All right, 
Speaker 5: and I vote aye as well that motion carries the polar Commissioners last year. We should have corrected because we have Russell digiacomo and Michael 
Speaker 8: Tompkins, but 
Speaker 4: [00:24:35] that would be an interesting combination. 
Speaker 10: We can't fix it now. Okay, um right this time so the motion we had 
Speaker 5: last year was that any just Expedia colls used for District activities [00:24:50] including classes or lectures on or off site calls or alarms drills are acts outside the district and other activities as approved by the board 
Speaker 1: or if you covered under VF B. And that any 
Speaker 5: active members participating in company activities, including fundraisers [00:25:05] and parades as 
Speaker 1: approved by the district be covered under V FB L 
Speaker 5: with the onus on the company in the district Chief coming to the Board of Commissioners meeting prior to the event for approval non active members who participate in company activities [00:25:20] would be covered under the district's general liability insurance. I covet a second for discussion 
Speaker 4: second for 
Speaker 8: discussion. Okay discussion. 
Speaker 4: Steve that's that notice is one board meeting [00:25:35] beforehand 
Speaker 2: or 30s. 
Speaker 4: So we don't get it a week before 
Speaker 2: be able to I actually have a 
Speaker 5: list of activities from the 
Speaker 8: Department. 
Speaker 5: [00:25:50] For 2021 that I will present in the general 
Speaker 4: meeting. But if there's any outliers, yeah out-of-district stuff. We need a one meeting notice beforehand [00:26:05] you want 
Speaker 11: this is done. We do have a problem with that. And so you can't make a blanket on that in the example of wakes and funerals that we can't pre-plan where the Board needs [00:26:20] to notified. It will not be meeting in advance. It can't 
Speaker 5: be well it calls her alarms at part of this as well. So obviously That request is situational. 
Speaker 4: Okay the board as a group. We need [00:26:35] three board members to 
Speaker 8: approve. Correct. 
Speaker 5: So this is District vehicles used for District activities including classes or 
Speaker 8: lectures. calls or alarms drills [00:26:50] or 
Speaker 5: acts outside the district and other activities as approved by the board to be covered under 
Speaker 8: VF BL 
Speaker 5: and active members participating in company activities, including fundraisers and parades as approved by the board be coder under V FB L [00:27:05] with the onus in the company the district Chief coming to the Board of Commissioners prior to the event for 
Speaker 8: approval. as able 
Speaker 4: Steve there are we need to talk to rod on the parade portion for vfb [00:27:20] L coverage. There was just something I remember on one of the insurances. There was something that I was surprised at hearing so we can we can vote on this but we got to just run it by Rod. 
Speaker 8: That's where we were last year [00:27:35] Okay, 
Speaker 5: Kevin. What's your 
Speaker 8: pleasure? Russ all right Mike I Bob I 
Speaker 5: I vote aye as well that motion [00:27:50] carries. I got to try to let somebody into the meeting here Glenda. 
Speaker 8: All right, we got that person in. 
Speaker 5: All right lordose. We got here. [00:28:19] So this motion is in regards to this is of the one I think. Specific two or more specific to parades 
Speaker 8: and it would be that I 
Speaker 5: would move that any [00:28:34] any District vehicles. I'll be taken out of the district for company events a company representative must be at the board of fire Commissioners meeting prior to the event to obtain approval [00:28:50] as recommended by the chief. 
Speaker 10: Good 
Speaker 5: wording on that is slightly different Karen. 
Speaker 8: You got that. 
Speaker 3: Yeah, like the district Vehicles. 
Speaker 5: Yeah District vehicles for a company [00:29:05] event. 
Speaker 7: Right? 
Speaker 5: So be I would move that any company vehicle or District vehicle District vehicle that will be out of district for a company event a company representative 
Speaker 1: must be at the Board of Commissioners 
Speaker 5: [00:29:20] meeting. Prior to the event to obtain approval as recommended by the chief of the district's there's a lot of players there. That is my motion. I covered a

Speaker 9: [00:40:57] of their $100. They're made out to the district, but we can't accept them in the usual practice is to forward them 
Speaker 1: through to the company and unless somebody objects. I will be doing so [00:41:14] that is all we have 
Speaker 9: for correspondence. 
Speaker 1: Okay, we all have had opportunity

Speaker 1: review the minutes from the regular December meeting. [00:41:29] I have 
Speaker 7: one 
Speaker 1: correction, but we'll get to that once we get the motion made. So I need a motion to accept the 
Speaker 6: minutes. Make a motion to accept 
Speaker 9: them, but I have three or four 
Speaker 6: [00:41:44] comments to maybe Corrections in. All right, 
Speaker 1: so we have one if we get a second we'll discuss those

Speaker 6: but she forced their second debate rosinski to adjourn the 
Speaker 9: second executive session. 
Speaker 6: There's no time there, but then there's a Time below when we come back at 7:41. Does that make a difference? 
Speaker 5: [00:42:44] We didn't record the time. We can't put it 
Speaker 1: down. There are certain cancers [00:42:59] that firefighters. I don't know what I said, but I meant to say susceptible

Speaker 9: Okay page a truss. [00:43:14] Yeah page eight. 
Speaker 6: Second paragraph when you were talking about it's about the fourth line down 
Speaker 9: as chairman for slur said [00:43:29] we need to add a cleaning list and we need to start sealing it.

Okay confusing it should be so will it fit into the firehouse because the truck chassis higher than the the inches he possibly all right, so that will record that as [00:45:03] the question

Speaker 1: independent 
Speaker 6: audit 
Speaker 1: This is my eighth year. I'm all for seven. [00:49:59] I really really really really want to get it in on

Speaker 5: can't remember help me. 
Speaker 1: People [00:50:14] are BT.

Speaker 1: What's the strategy who's going to go after them and good evening rod? Who's good? Who's going to approach them and start this ball rolling 
Speaker 12: [00:50:29] Well, what we'll do is that as soon as we get the AUD done you should I'm thinking based on some things that I've seen that we should put it on extension. The board will approve the AUD at your [00:50:44] March meeting and then we will file it. So it will go in like March whatever the second Thursday of marches, but I think the board should review it before. We file it 
Speaker 6: the AUD and I think and I have a note 
Speaker 1: here. [00:51:01] also next meeting and this is something we must have got we I have a note that we should do a fixed asset review. And and and that was one of the things that came out of the last year's audit that [00:51:16] we should review 
Speaker 12: before. That's that's one of the reasons. Well, you should review it will give you the list of the fixed assets along with the AUD for your March meeting and then you can approve it and we can file it. 
Speaker 8: All right, that's the 
Speaker 1: plan then for the IUD. And when we're going to comment [00:51:31] on the independent audit right after that 
Speaker 12: and then we'll contact will contact our Beatty on Friday. after the meeting 
Speaker 9: Okay, that's the plan 
Speaker 4: and Jim [00:51:46] they're going to accept us. There's no problem there. We've got the option. 
Speaker 12: The option is the other way around if you don't want them, we really need to do something to choose new wonders before the end of get started. 
Speaker 1: [00:52:01] Yeah. I thought we made a multi-year commitment. 
Speaker 12: We have a commitment a five-year commitment with them, but we can break that at the end of it every any year. 
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, I 
Speaker 4: don't that's not what [00:52:17] I wanted to make sure that to get a to get them to accept us. We had to do some fancy footwork. 
Speaker 10: Now, we're good now the 
Speaker 5: clerk I hear they're happy with the clerk current 
Speaker 4: clientele. Okay, good. That's all. I meant. Not [00:52:32] the other way around 
Speaker 8: time. Okay, um 
Speaker 1: where to go next. I'm Don. I think you're up. 
Speaker 2: Awesome, buddy got 
Speaker 4: here. 
Speaker 10: [00:52:55] I guess not Jim. 
Speaker 8: Welcome much your Korea pointing. 
Speaker 12: Thanks for reading pointing me. Good 
Speaker 8: night. All right. Have a good night. 
Speaker 1: Donald 
Speaker 11: happy New Year gentlemen, and ladies and everybody in the listening audience. [00:53:11] One thing first to just clarify completely with the board. I am the chief of the fire district. I have nothing to do with the company membership. I'm not responsible for the members of the company. That is a separate thing. Let's start a fire or [00:53:26] training. The membership does not belong to the chief. It belongs to the president. Let that be very clear on that going forward if An issue with reports regarding membership that is from the company not the district. Chief needs [00:53:41] pursued through the 
Speaker 12: company and I think that is something that does need to actively be pursued 
Speaker 11: for the month of December. We had five calls a rather slow 
Speaker 12: month. We ended up with a hundred and seven calls 
Speaker 11: [00:53:56] for the year, which were up 28 from the previous year. So we did have a 
Speaker 12: About hopeful year if you would and and had a hundred percent response hundred percent 
Speaker 11: the drill [00:54:11] for January will be the cold water or ice rescue drill 
Speaker 12: also known as Jack drowned the your local fire chief and the 
Speaker 11: drills are scheduled again who drills a month the third [00:54:26] Tuesday of the month will be excuse me. Third Thursday of the month will be the fire drills. 
Speaker 12: No. Did it again 
Speaker 11: third Tuesday of the month will be the fire drills and the fourth 
Speaker 12: Tuesday of the month will be [00:54:41] EMS drills. So we don't have the neighborhood of 20 for drills for the year. Give or take again on Monday nights. All members are encouraged to come down and we train on Monday nights. And if the training goes over [00:54:56] two hours, it actually qualifies as the drill with the proper OSHA and everything else. They're in. on that being said the [00:55:11] Driver training is commencing again 
Speaker 11: for 2021 all drivers have to be recertified 
Speaker 12: and their certifications documented members will be encouraged to come down and do that [00:55:26] when permitting weather permitting 
Speaker 11: also recertification all the 
Speaker 12: pumps as it is done and required as it should be every year. The membership has been 
Speaker 11: informed of the new officer requirements. 
Speaker 2: Which 
Speaker 12: [00:55:44] four officers but they would get for their what they must complete as officers, which your Chief totally totally agrees on. So, let's see what else going on the driver sheets. [00:56:01] We're going to discuss the sign-in sheet. I believe going on Steven 63 is going to Juniors tomorrow to have the water pump looked at hose test will be schedule when we know the weather is clear. Usually [00:56:16] I wait until the up to Lake Christian school is on recess in the spring so we can have the parking lot there with the mission. Ben's got the VIN number to check for the records for the potential new ambulance [00:56:31] who Sharon Connecticut. 
Speaker 2: Thank 
Speaker 12: you. Sue for getting that. So he's going to get the maintenance records or repair records from Juniors and also from Northeast Ford. So have that [00:56:46] I'm thinking anything else on that 
Speaker 10: the drills. 
Speaker 2: I 
Speaker 12: believe that's bleep. That's all I have at this time. 
Speaker 9: All right. Thank you 
Speaker 4: [00:57:01] Steve. I got a question for done. Go ahead rehab vehicle. What's the status as that thing failed? And do you have the error codes if it has no, yes. Yes. No, [00:57:17] we the Ford really needs to know what the status is on that. I don't look good. Willing to teach anybody that wants to see here it how to pull the codes because to that that's completely fixable [00:57:32] when I talked to the Hitchcock. They didn't even take the error codes. So we got to do it ourselves 
Speaker 11: my suggestion Bob because I'm not doing anymore with it is come down run it it will fail and half [00:57:47] an hour and pull the error codes. 
Speaker 4: Okay, how do you turn into hang on? I didn't fool around with it. Is 
Speaker 11: there is there is there a 12 volt switch on it done? I think 
Speaker 5: it's what he's asking because I didn't think there was on that vehicle 
Speaker 4: unplug it 
Speaker 11: dirty gas on on [00:58:02] the other 
Speaker 4: side and flip the 
Speaker 11: switch from Shore power 
Speaker 4: generator. And that'll start it though. You don't have it. There's no 12 volts. Okay. We have a good start. I'll give it a go. 
Speaker 1: All right any other questions [00:58:17] for Don? We have missed a bath work 
Speaker 8: present. Negative do we have mr. Russell present? Nope. 
Speaker 5: Oh, all right, Susan. 
Speaker 9: [00:58:36] Are you there? 
Speaker 2: I'm never on you 
Speaker 5: know, I can keep asking her to 
Speaker 10: unmute you. 
Speaker 2: Well, let's see. I can [00:58:51] do rescue. If you want 
Speaker 12: go you're in trouble 
Speaker 2: unless you when she comes back on Rescue had a busy month for December 15 calls for here 15 for December [00:59:06] of the told I could go a hundred forty-one clicked 
Speaker 12: on I'd say there was a total of a hundred 248 and there was a hundred and seven. So do the 
Speaker 2: math. She says she's here Steve. So 
Speaker 4: there it is there. She's there. 
Speaker 3: I'm here. [00:59:22] I'm here. I'm here. I'm here 
Speaker 1: Bob said 1541 but that's all he said so 
Speaker 3: far. That's correct. So we did we had 15 calls for December and with a hundred and forty-one for the year [00:59:37] and that does include the call that some people I guess donated decided to donate some money for in memory of one of the patients. We had. Let's see overall we We had of all the transports [00:59:52] that we needed to do, you know that needed to go to the hospital. There were we did all of them except for six because you know, we just didn't have EMTs on scene 4 times those things up there the nominal for us [01:00:07] for the year. Yeah, so that's you know 95% there about so considering that we're a small Squad. I think that's pretty amazing and You to the fire [01:00:22] part as well. We couldn't have done it without a combination and the full team so drills. So the drills that are drill is next drill is going to be on the fourth Tuesday. And this time we're going to be focusing [01:00:37] on the skills that are needed for fall being that you know, we do have ice it is still winter and you know splinting and that Let's see. What else is so odd doing [01:00:52] this on the phone. I can tell you so covid. Let's update drawn covid. So as the board requested we did I did develop a sheet so that anyone who is on scene involved in [01:01:07] patient care that that sheet will be filled out after each and every call. It's not just the ones that we are confirmed that a covid positive but for each one any questions about that 
Speaker 1: no, I And we're forwarding [01:01:22] those forms to Karen so that she can put it into an incident report and each person's personnel file. And we're also forwarding 
Speaker 8: of a copy of 
Speaker 1: [01:01:37] that form with a with a copy of the run sheet to Karen so she 
Speaker 5: can put it in a covid file. Is that correct? 
Speaker 3: That is correct Chief. Do you want to speak about 
Speaker 7: that? 
Speaker 2: What what what you think 
Speaker 3: I do? [01:01:52] What do you want to just comment about the covid? She sits going in the folder for Karen we're doing being prepared. 
Speaker 11: We're doing a lot of homework extra with the regular sheet and it breaks it down as to the [01:02:07] exposure or non potential exposure. Well, we don't have exposures with our PPE which we enforce them to wear something with the pptv that's negative exposure, but we're still following through 
Speaker 12: And 
Speaker 11: properly doing so also on [01:02:22] in Karen's covid file. We it's called C KC F KC F. It's almost like Kentucky Fried Chicken. She gets that we also do a run sheet of all members on the call and also [01:02:37] a CAG report. So there's the whole thing for every call that we do on EMS and the one thing that the members responding 
Speaker 12: and the you know for the restriction 
Speaker 11: Put in that's a known covid. The the basically [01:02:53] Sue's going in and limited exposure members responding who are not EMTs are told to Stage the ambulance await instructions. So we are really limiting any household entrance covid or [01:03:08] no covid to the point of only those that are 
Speaker 4: necessary to transfer or provide 
Speaker 11: patient care very diligent about 
Speaker 3: that. That's correct. And and and today. Yes. Thank you, Don. And and today we've just had [01:03:23] to known covid call so but there's been no exposure and no one's had any kind of symptoms or anything besides as far as the vaccine up until Monday the 11th. They were only vaccinated [01:03:38] Tier 1 a and it was put out to those who were eligible in the Tier 1 a and four of the members. Scheduled and have received their first dose and we'll go back to Northern Dutch has been [01:03:53] now less than 28 days. But to receive their second dose the rest of the membership or in Tier 1 B, and as it was explained at the recent company meeting the details and how they can go about to schedule their appointments. [01:04:09] I am told that since the 11th that appointments have filled up very very fast and that there are Really aren't any openings for a few weeks, but I'm sure everybody who is interested in getting the vaccine will do so. [01:04:26] Okay, as far as the ambulance our current ambulance the equipment that we have that requires the maintenance so the annual maintenance that has been done [01:04:41] Sean came out last week after we had a problem with our stretcher. We were able to find that problem. And then while he was there he you know, also did the maintenance or shall I say? Well he came to do the main. It's he did the repair. [01:04:58] Let's see just 
Speaker 1: questions that when you went when 
Speaker 5: the state Auditors come out 
Speaker 6: every three years 
Speaker 1: to audit 
Speaker 5: our rig and our storage facility. 
Speaker 1: My experience is the first [01:05:13] thing 
Speaker 5: they look at is the p.m. Records that preventative maintenance records on the devices that carry patients and that if one of those failed that we did not have have the PMS I would think you would have some [01:05:28] major litigation issues. So that's why we 
Speaker 3: do right? Right. So that's so we're you know, we're all in good standing there and one of the things that Shawn did let us know about our current Ferno Striker because of the age of it and the way [01:05:43] that we use it is that that stretcher is can actually considered just about obsolete. So I was a foreigner 
Speaker 8: You said our current 
Speaker 3: Striker? [01:05:58] Oh, no, I said our current 
Speaker 5: Ferno. Are you tired of Stryker of G make Ferno? Stretch Karen 
Speaker 3: stretcher? Oh, yeah, that's what I meant. I'm over it's been a busy day. I'm on a 24-hour [01:06:13] shift. So, okay. So yeah, so it being that it's a about obsolete that if we at the panel goes that operates or tells a stretcher to go up and down goes it would be very hard pressed. To [01:06:28] replace and repair that or repair and replace that. So it's a really good thing that we are already moving forward with getting the ambulance from Sharon and the stretcher there. So [01:06:43] I have two other things one quick question is about the with a budget so that our current budget of $500 a month has always been in a plenty for us my question to the board is what happens to the Surplus. it happens [01:06:58] to the money that's not spent in the reason for my 
Speaker 1: any monies that aren't spent any budget surplus that we have 
Speaker 5: whether it's 
Speaker 1: supplies or 
Speaker 9: insurance money or anything [01:07:13] else the 
Speaker 10: board makes a determination 
Speaker 1: after we know what our financial situation is and 
Speaker 6: they're usually put 
Speaker 5: into Reserve funds for either equipment purchase 
Speaker 1: or 
Speaker 6: upgrade 
Speaker 3: [01:07:29] Okay. So the reason for my question was a piece of equipment that I would at some point like to get and I will pursue trying to get a grant for it is a Lucas CPR device. So I just [01:07:44] wondered if you know, we're not spending the money if after two years three years we've seen no have that in Surplus at that could be earmarked 
Speaker 4: Susan how much you talking about? 
Speaker 3: A Lucas device is they're going for about sixteen thousand dollars. 
Speaker 4: [01:07:59] Oh, okay. 
Speaker 3: [01:08:23] It would be very beneficial to our company. Okay? All right, and I guess you probably tell me when you want to talk about the response [01:08:38] card when I got at this point or if you hang on okay if you hang on okay, great. All 
Speaker 1: right any other questions? 
Speaker 5: [01:09:09] and 
Speaker 3: question 
Speaker 9: [01:09:24] I'm not aware of any departments firing you vaccine to be taken. 
Speaker 4: St. Rod once time starts going on. 
Speaker 9: [01:09:39] I there are probably some problems with requiring everyone to get something injected into their body. Right and what are you willing to do is someone says I'm not getting shot. Well, I mean, 
Speaker 1: so the penalty for not [01:09:54] getting the flu shot used to 
Speaker 5: be you have to wear a mask, but that's kind of funny, isn't it? 
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, and of course something like that, you know someone who could 
Speaker 9: The firehouse with no mask on and you say why haven't you got a mask on? Well, I've got the shot prove. [01:10:09] You got the shot. What proof does someone have they got the shot? 
Speaker 4: Well, they're talking about for being able to fly and certain other activities to actually have it either a document or embedded on your phone. So that [01:10:24] is coming. 
Speaker 6: I just read an article. I think it was in the newspaper where even if you get the shot they say you were supposed to continue the same procedure of wearing a mask because there's a 10% chance [01:10:39] that it isn't going to work for you in. Want you to still do the PPE regardless of whether you get the vaccine or 
Speaker 3: not. It's not clearly. I interject seeing you may still be a 
Speaker 9: courier. 
Speaker 6: Go ahead [01:10:54] Susan. 
Speaker 3: So some of the current the current research is also saying that these vaccines will just limit the they won't prevent you from getting the virus, but they will limit your symptoms. So that [01:11:09] is why it is still required. Even if you're vaccinated. It is still required for you to have PPE they'll be masked and and still quarantine if you have been exposed 
Speaker 4: so you can still be a carrier like rock. 
Speaker 3: Saying yes, [01:11:24] yes. Yes exactly. So so long as you are properly PP, he didn't following good hygiene and all the other, you know things that we should be doing regardless and other words don't be falsely, [01:11:39] you know think that you are going not to you know, what I want to say, you know big red 
Speaker 1: s on your chest. 
Speaker 3: Yeah exactly just because you've been vaccinated you can still be positive. 
Speaker 1: All right [01:11:55] any other questions for rod on this? I mean, I think we pretty much know where we're headed. Okay, just to note active member roster 
Speaker 5: January 4th or so caring you and I got letters to members who [01:12:10] did not make active member requirements. I believe we sent five members who were in the territory of mitigation would be possible by the end of February. And we sent it to members who [01:12:25] didn't even come close and we asked him to turn in their 
Speaker 6: gear. 
Speaker 2: So 
Speaker 5: don for your information. I have responses from two of those members and I got to get with you on that. 
Speaker 1: [01:12:40] And we have one member 
Speaker 5: Rod who despite repeated attempts to 
Speaker 8: get our gear back. 
Speaker 5: We don't get any responses. We have we set a certified [01:12:55] we sent a certified 
Speaker 9: letter for 
Speaker 1: return requested 
Speaker 5: for the active member. You didn't make it please turn in your gear, right Karen 
Speaker 1: that notification. [01:13:10] What's the next step Rod call the sheriff 
Speaker 7: or 
Speaker 9: You're on mute. Yeah, I would say call 
Speaker 6: Sheriff. All right. Oh, how do you how do you proceed with the sheriff? What are you I mean I'm [01:13:25] trying to think a long legal lines as it presently: you know, so Friendly Persuasion. 
Speaker 5: We've done it before 
Speaker 4: Okay Ross when I was we did that over in West [01:13:40] Clinton. Exactly that scenario. 
Speaker 6: Yeah, but I mean for the if I was a deputy I'd say, okay, what what grounds am I using to you know respond to this person's house and [01:13:55] basically order an attorney gear and it's like it doesn't sound like anything. It sounds like 
Speaker 5: he has our property and he's not returning it that smells like almost F to 
Speaker 6: me. Well, I guess you can stretch credit you can stretch larceny because it's if you have something don't return it that [01:14:10] calls on their larceny killed. 
Speaker 9: It's nothing more than than the fire department asking a favor of it friendly sheriff or friendly Trooper who just dropped by this guy's house and encouraged him to give back to the fire district wherever property he [01:14:25] might have. There's no legal standing to do it isn't have any standing in a court of law. But often times it will put the fear of God in someone just to turn the stuff back in as to opposed. Just ignoring a letter from Karen. 
Speaker 5: [01:14:40] It's worked before and if 
Speaker 1: I will I will call I will call the gyno on The Duchess County Sheriff if his address on the 
Speaker 5: active member roster is current we're good to go. I will do that 
Speaker 4: stays beyond. What does he have [01:14:55] that 
Speaker 11: needs to be returned? We have an itemized list. 
Speaker 5: Susan will get me 
Speaker 8: that okay. 
Speaker 3: Okay 
Speaker 4: Steve on the AMR. There's not there's not 11 people indicated as having cancer insurance, and we're [01:15:10] Paying for 11:00. 
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I looked there were nine 
Speaker 6: Borkowski 
Speaker 1: Russell and Olson, even though they are not currently interior [01:15:25] should be designated with a 
Speaker 5: seed for cancer 
Speaker 3: Insurance 
Speaker 4: Karen. Can you talk with Kim at that that change to keep those 
Speaker 5: records [01:15:40] and 
Speaker 8: Also awesome 
Speaker 5: Yep. And then Brandon Mason a blonde is he does he qualified because I noticed he was not 
Speaker 4: check. Is he qualified? He's done the 
Speaker 11: classes. [01:15:55] He did not do his bail out. I would say, you know, he's you know as Brandon comes and goes but at this current point, he's not interior, but I would say he does why he's 
Speaker 5: one of the eleven because he has been 
Speaker 11: interior. Yes. [01:16:10] I was correct. So I 
Speaker 4: think yes now criteria is the five years of demonstrated interior 
Speaker 12: work. 
Speaker 4: If the board wants to just extend [01:16:25] it, we have the authority to do that and that's fine. But as far as qualified for cancer gap insurance, the law states five years have demonstrated and fit test and all that but you have to really have been an interior [01:16:40] for five years, 
Speaker 6: excuse me, but didn't we at the last one would rod bring up the fact that the laws changed and everybody is eligible. Now rather interior or exterior while we were waiting for 
Speaker 5: Rod to comment on that that might be a good time Rod 
Speaker 9: [01:16:56] exteriors are eligible, but they're not required to be covered. 
Speaker 6: Oh, I thought it was necessarily were recovered 
Speaker 9: that was the that was the word I had at the 
Speaker 1: last meeting and I misspoke when I 
Speaker 9: said when I relied upon my source for that [01:17:11] and it is not required it is allowed 
Speaker 3: but not required, 
Speaker 6: okay. So it's up to us brother. We want to extend that to the exterior. That's correct for the extra 
Speaker 4: cost. Yeah, but we didn't budget [01:17:27] for it so we can talk about it budget time later in the year. 
Speaker 6: Well, I remember Steve's comment last month saying, you know, what about the EMT people stuff. Everybody's breathing the same sort, of course not the concentration. You would be if you were inside the building. 
Speaker 1: [01:17:42] Right. I made a know if they're not required. Like Bob said it's not in the budget, but I think the two people that are missing on the act 
Speaker 5: of member roster or Maisonette and rustled Karen. 
Speaker 8: Okay. All right 
Speaker 6: that brings it up to [01:17:57] the 11. 
Speaker 4: Yes, then that's good. 
Speaker 8: All right, Bob. There 
Speaker 1: was a communication from Linda Flanagan On the square footage of the 
Speaker 4: firehouse. Yeah, ICC. Styles [01:18:12] and for that I'll answer her that now that I got 
Speaker 1: three plenty. Of course again, there was a we wanted to increase I think we're going to want to increase 
Speaker 5: the replacement cost from like 750 to 840. 
Speaker 8: Okay, is that is that we can [01:18:27] on 
Speaker 4: that? Yeah, it'll it'll hit us with the insurance cost but shouldn't be too much. 
Speaker 5: Well, no, I shouldn't be too much and we want to make sure so I would move that. We authorized Bob Jasinski to contact [01:18:42] Linda Flanagan to inform her that we want to increase based upon her recommendation of the insured value of the firehouse from approximately 750,000 to 840,000 and to 
Speaker 1: ensure that [01:18:57] our 
Speaker 5: coverage includes. 
Speaker 1: Guaranteed replacement cost and I covet a second. 
Speaker 10: Hold on a great 
Speaker 12: question Steve. When did she give that that quote or that idea? What 
Speaker 5: that was? We Bob went down [01:19:12] and measured the square footage and it was an excess of what she had estimated 
Speaker 8: and that was of 
Speaker 5: communication that we got. Hmm. 
Speaker 10: I guarantee were January [01:19:27] 9th. I think 
Speaker 5: January 9th. Okay. It was at 8:40. Is that the right 
Speaker 10: number? No, it's 809 615 
Speaker 5: 809. Okay 
Speaker 6: from 700,000 right 
Speaker 5: by my numbers [01:19:42] in the in the motion, please eight nine. Whatever to 615 
Speaker 3: 809 615 lat 
Speaker 6: I'm a little confused and I don't know how [01:19:57] many people have in front of you but her fourth paragraph, which is only a one liner. 
Speaker 9: Well, let me get a second so we can have so we can have 
Speaker 6: discussion. I'll second. 
Speaker 9: Okay, go ahead Russ. 
Speaker 6: So on her [01:20:12] her email to Bob on January 6th. It says on the fourth paragraph. The one-liner we will not have to bring the value of the first house up 2809. 615 [01:20:27] which I will request and it seems like a you going away and flipping the other way. We will not have to bring the value up to eight or nine which I will request the paragraph above. It says keep in mind your property is covered on a guarantee [01:20:42] replacement cost basis. So what I mean, they wouldn't replace it at eight at 8:09. If you have insured for seven, they're only going to go up to the maximum year insurances. I don't know what she meant by that last [01:20:57] that sentence. We will not have to bring the value of the first house up to eight or nine which I will request. 
Speaker 4: I'm not sure. Yeah, I have a problem with their verbiage. They say you have full replacement cost and [01:21:12] then down a little bit below our lower. It says up to the the amount stated in your contract and that scares me because it would cost more than that. If we had a fire I'd like to get with Rod and just run it [01:21:27] by him and because I talked with her three times on this and that that note is after I Two or three times just to know what the words I should say on this. It's [01:21:42] we're going circular now. 
Speaker 6: Well, she she does say we keep in mind your property is covered on a guaranteed replacement cost. Yes. We have to provide accurate information to the company and regarding square footage of construction. [01:21:57] So if I'm reading it, right they will guarantee replacement costs as long as you have it insured for that much. Money, so if you had ensured for 700,000 they would guarantee up to that but it was 800,000. You're not going to [01:22:12] get the other 
Speaker 7: $100,000. 
Speaker 12: Yeah reason I was asking about the date was that building materials lately. I've gone through the roof on everyone's aware of that but like doubled Chirac went up twenty percent as of January 1st. So [01:22:27] stuff is way way higher than it was just a couple months ago. So 
Speaker 7: So 
Speaker 4: even if we lost that structure to get it put back in place with all the things we have to do with it were in the million 522 
Speaker 9: [01:22:42] Rod. What's your understanding what guaranteed replacement cost means guaranteed replacement cost means that they will replace the building if it's destroyed even if it exceeds the policy limits [01:22:57] unless unless the policy says guaranteed replacement cost up to a dollar 
Speaker 4: amount and that's what it's it doesn't say up to a dollar amount. It says what specified in your [01:23:12] in your contract which is equivalent to that but it's ambiguous and I've asked Linda multiple times on that. I'll send it over to you. So you see what my eyes see and then we'll proceed on talking to her [01:23:27] so we can Authorize the increase in the dollar amount just to get that out of the way, but there's more I need more information on this. 
Speaker 5: So what was the motion Karen, 
Speaker 3: please? [01:23:43] Let's see, we got to find it That the authorized Bob Krasinski to contact Linda Flanagan to inform her. We want the increase based on her [01:23:58] sixth are subjected to increase based on her suggestion the insurance value of the firehouse from 750,000 2809 6:15 and to ensure coverage includes guaranteed replacement 
Speaker 9: cause I [01:24:13] think that's still valid motion except at 750 was actually what Mike or Kevin 
Speaker 6: 700 even 700 even Russ. 
Speaker 10: Yeah. Okay, so I think that's kind of a do 
Speaker 3: nine. 6:15. 
Speaker 12: Yeah, right. [01:24:28] That's right Karen. 
Speaker 9: I think it's still valid motion and we should authorize Bob to do that pretty any any buddy object to that. All right, Mike. What's your 
Speaker 10: pleasure? All right, Kevin 
Speaker 8: [01:24:44] Ross I 
Speaker 10: live or die as well and you're going to you're going to seek clarification from her on the exact is it guaranteed replacement cost up 
Speaker 9: to or is it guaranteed 
Speaker 10: replacement [01:24:59] cost? Is that basically the question Rod? 
Speaker 9: Yeah. 
Speaker 4: Yeah, and I'll get the information to rod and then we'll go over it. We may even do a joint call whether just did. 
Speaker 7: Be sure. 
Speaker 1: All right, Karen. Now we did not get [01:25:15] a 
Speaker 5: signed contract returned from Tek. We sent a second one 
Speaker 8: out, correct? 
Speaker 3: Okay get out, but we did not get it back 
Speaker 9: him. All right, and I contacted her. I haven't heard back from her. I contacted her actually just tonight to follow up after I talk to 
Speaker 10: you [01:25:31] low sap, 
Speaker 4: what comments should I make about that TK contract? That's 
Speaker 9: problematic. Well, she responded to the first one. I said I told you we she told us that we were using [01:25:46] the old rates. So we modified the rates and send it back out and that how long ago do you think that was that was probably a week ago Karen? 
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was about that. 
Speaker 9: All right, so I don't think she's overdue at this point [01:26:01] if it's going to be problematic we'll know for sure by next 
Speaker 7: month. 
Speaker 10: Okay? All right low sap the posting. 
Speaker 9: Wore on 20/20 low sap [01:26:17] for Department review was done 
Speaker 3: when? It'll be posted after the board accepts that 
Speaker 9: tonight. Okay, so it's so what is actually the 
Speaker 1: motion that we need to make to 
Speaker 8: accept 
Speaker 1: [01:26:34] we have to accept an authorized to post is that what we have to do 
Speaker 9: now just authorized posting. You're not accepting it 
Speaker 1: yet. Okay, so so I 
Speaker 9: would move there for that. We authorize Karen to post-2020 low [01:26:49] sap results as you have had operating. When your folder on the intent of giving the department a chance to review 
Speaker 10: and to accept challenges within 
Speaker 6: 30 days, I need it. 
Speaker 4: I'll second for discussion. [01:27:04] Go ahead. It's the numbers that Karen's got in front of us here. Yep. Yeah, that's what that's what we're talking about to be posted. Yeah, no late late. Come on 
Speaker 9: modifications. All right, and the [01:27:19] February meeting is when 
Speaker 4: I'll get that to you in a second. Just bear with me for a 
Speaker 12: second. March 
Speaker 4: February 10 
Speaker 9: So we're [01:27:35] what's today 13th? We're going to be a day shy of 
Speaker 7: 30. 
Speaker 4: Yeah, so we can do it Mark there is no there's no hurry on this you could pull this off until December 31st and still be okay. 
Speaker 10: [01:27:50] Alright, so we have to rush. 
Speaker 9: All right. So we've also I have a motion do we get a second? 
Speaker 4: Yeah, I second 
Speaker 9: it. All right. Do we have any further discussion? Ross what's your 
Speaker 6: pleasure? I [01:28:05] like 
Speaker 10: Kevin I um, 
Speaker 9: I've authorized well that motion carries your authorized to post Karen, please. Thank you. [01:28:21] now Lowe's tap kind of a double-edged sword here in some of the seminars that we've had [01:28:36] the opportunity to watch Bob as watched. I think all of them I've watched a 
Speaker 10: couple of them on low 
Speaker 8: sap. 
Speaker 7: It was 
Speaker 9: stated 
Speaker 8: that [01:28:51] if 
Speaker 9: the chief if we want it we would have to 
Speaker 10: purposely 
Speaker 9: authorized the chief to fill out the low sap response sheets in lieu of [01:29:06] signatures, okay? And it's kind of a double-edged sword signatures in my opinion can be loosey-goosey, right? Anybody can come down an hour after the call is done [01:29:21] and and sign into the on sign his name on the sheet whether he participated or 
Speaker 10: not and I think 
Speaker 9: in the current situation with the current Personnel the tighter ship Is to have the chief doing what he's [01:29:36] doing 
Speaker 10: which is writing names on the list. 
Speaker 9: Okay, there may be situations and there would be situations where these where it's exactly the 
Speaker 10: opposite right? There's also a certain 
Speaker 9: [01:29:51] Hazard potential to you know, unless you stood on the parkway during an auto accident in the dark. It's kind of hard to comprehend exactly. What [01:30:06] what what the hazards really 
Speaker 5: are because because people just 
Speaker 9: don't slow down, you know, and if you're in a situation where the accident that pumpkin and the 
Speaker 10: Parkway and you have 
Speaker 9: somebody [01:30:21] that lives Up, or I live right to have to go all the way you don't want people running around on the parkway sign in the sheet to have to go all the way down to the Firehouse at two o'clock in the morning to sign in really really [01:30:36] just seems counterproductive because Die My overwhelming desires to get back under the covers. So I think in the current situation the better situation is to authorize this sheet the chief to right people. [01:30:51] Has names onto the response list. I can foresee situations with other Personnel were that would be counterproductive and I guess my comment to that would be we are not writing this in stone. [01:31:06] We can always modify. if the situation if we if we make a decision tonight, so so I would move relative to low sap sheets that we authorize the chief [01:31:21] to fill out the low step sheets in their entirety and to write people's names on the sheet and make that acceptable in lieu of a person's or an active member signature and I 
Speaker 10: coveted [01:31:37] second for discussion purposes 
Speaker 4: second for 
Speaker 9: All right, Bob. You might have an opposing point of view and I 
Speaker 10: respect that so go ahead 
Speaker 4: the New York State Auditors are going to look for individual names. [01:31:52] We have the authority to do in the direction that you're doing it you're recommending. I'm actually not opposing it. I don't I'm not putting my foot down. The one thing [01:32:07] is no waiting. For more than a week or two to four the chief to have that information from any individual can't wait a month to three four five months and then have them appear [01:32:23] That's that doesn't that doesn't work that part doesn't work. So if the Chiefs doing it and give Karen monthlies and the board has an opportunity to see what's going on. That's fine. But [01:32:38] other than that, Is that it's a real problem and we're still having that problem apparently going 
Speaker 10: on. Yeah, and that's kind of a 
Speaker 9: separate situation, which I think we're going to deal [01:32:53] with in February because we all know because we've seen a challenge and we'll do with that February because that's that's when the posting actually happens abroad you have any input what relative to what I've moved. [01:33:10] No, I think that is fine. 
Speaker 8: I was just looking at the law of now to see exactly 
Speaker 1: but I think what you're proposing to have an officer or have 
Speaker 9: the chief do it, [01:33:25] but the 
Speaker 1: concern is what if the chief is not on the fall, 
Speaker 2: it'll happen. 
Speaker 9: Yeah. I know. I know your numbers are pretty good. What if 
Speaker 1: he's not there not now, you've got someone who's telling [01:33:40] the chief who was there now? 
Speaker 9: It's third-hand information already, and 
Speaker 4: I don't know. 
Speaker 10: Here inventory information, right? 
Speaker 6: Well, it's the Chiefs not there the senior members in charge of a scene, isn't it? I mean [01:33:55] if the Chiefs not there any assistant Chiefs there. He's in charge of the system Chief and chief aren't there Captain? I mean he kind of goes down to think of who's in charge of the scene and it's kind of like the senior person interestingly enough. I did watched videos on this [01:34:10] one was called navigating New York State Services award program are Point systems. An hour and a half and they said people should sign themselves in not to be done by the chief need documentation for all calls [01:34:25] scenes Etc. I can see that I don't think there's one answer that covers all preferably. It'd be nice at the scene if you had a sheet and it was signed and maybe the chief [01:34:40] could initially signature Stone in its valence. Nobody can come out and later a week later or so. His name now but I can also see that if the people I can also see the chief saying well these people were there and making out a list [01:34:55] so I don't know if it's one particular way. You've got to go all the time. 
Speaker 4: Well, I trust done with with him putting the names down and for safety. I'm okay with that. It's just that there's some [01:35:10] other interpretations that go beyond the pale. 
Speaker 9: Right and my motion was that we accept the chief writing that down in lieu of I did not I did not eliminate the potential for people to write their names on a sheet when the chief wasn't there. 
Speaker 4: [01:35:25] Okay, but we got our address rods question. Are we going to allow the lieutenants and captains to do the same 
Speaker 9: if the chief isn't there, you know, I guess we'd have to allow either [01:35:40] the admission of signatures or a And communication to the chief when it comes time for him to process all that paperwork. 
Speaker 11: Could I input here? I think I've got a great [01:35:55] job a little bit more of a Reader's Digest level here. 
Speaker 12: And 
Speaker 11: we do of course, there's many facets here. Number one. We are to restrict the number of individuals in the station. So it would not be [01:36:10] responsible on our level to tell everybody you have to come back and sign in so you'd be going against New York state by doing. So right now that 
Speaker 4: done you can have those sheets. I'm vehicles. 
Speaker 10: Let's let down go. [01:36:25] Yeah. 
Speaker 11: Number two species said it very well personal safety on the Parkway and tell you been out there any time it's just irresponsible to be passing on a seat [01:36:40] for your lousy points to jeopardize your well-being or the well-being of our members. That's just frivolous has ignorant the other aspect that comes in is Is the Run sheets now or done same time? [01:36:55] My state reports are done staying same time. No, this was a year, which I had absolutely no life. I made ninety percent of the calls much to the joy of my wife, but the sheets when they're done are put in the [01:37:10] community room and therefore even if I'm not on the call those rare 10% of the times they're there for my review. nobody will ever [01:37:25] be added to a sheet that was not on a call now don't go apples to oranges or whatever here. We're talking about emergency calls not activity sheets two different things for the [01:37:40] activity sheets be that a drill be that a quick call be that a fire district work-related activity. Everybody's already at the station. So and those that you just go ahead and [01:37:55] The quick call list, you'll generally see that they had individual sign in. So therefore I think the basic conversation here is emergency 
Speaker 12: calls not activity 
Speaker 7: sheets 
Speaker 4: [01:38:11] big difference. That's not true. We're looking at all looks at points. That's not not just not just calls. 
Speaker 11: I know I know I'm talking about two different sheets not. Talking about low sap. I'm talking about [01:38:26] sheets where 
Speaker 12: individual signing in or not signing in and in this 
Speaker 4: case, there's two different sheets activity sheet run cheek. I got the run sheet 
Speaker 6: and I can I can see I don't have a problem with that on you and run sheet what these other things [01:38:41] there the activities that maybe you're coming down to the Firehouse not an emergency situation. That's what you were talking about. And I agree with what you're saying there for safety reasons. It makes perfect sense for the officer. Charge keep track of who was there, [01:38:56] but the stuff that's going on at the firehouse rather. It's falls under you know. Rather falls under training courses drills meetings all these other things [01:39:11] that they can get lost at points for including. Miscellaneous. I think that we need to have a handle on on how accurate they are. 
Speaker 8: And I know I can I won't 
Speaker 11: sign anything that I do not believe is a hundred percent [01:39:26] accurate. You'll not get my signature on anything where I have any questions. I've been in visual did not participate or pencil with it. I don't give free low set points. I don't believe it. So there's also a supporter situation 
Speaker 1: Don correct [01:39:41] me if I have if I have some of the details a little bit off, please correct me. I think you and I are at the station when the when the sirens went off to tones went off for an automatic fire alarm 
Speaker 10: generally speaking is and you know, I'm not 
Speaker 1: into 12 and [01:39:56] we drove through 
Speaker 5: the better part of the town of Stanford to try to get to the residence 
Speaker 11: looks like saying 
Speaker 9: yeah, it was it was it was A beautiful trip so along the side and we were just about there 
Speaker 1: and Kevin beat us and 
Speaker 5: he called [01:40:11] it in as 
Speaker 1: terminated the alarm and we came home and 
Speaker 5: via the same beautiful 
Speaker 8: countryside 
Speaker 1: and I don't know. We're probably going a good 30 35 minutes. 
Speaker 9: I'm going back to the scene. We were there obviously [01:40:26] to participate in some other kind of activity 
Speaker 1: and then another members showed up about 20 minutes after you had all the paperwork buckled up including the the low stamp sheet and so on and then member 
Speaker 9: wondered [01:40:41] where the where the run sheet 
Speaker 5: was so that so that that member can put his or her signature on it. And that member 
Speaker 1: was flatly 
Speaker 4: refused. Yeah. Yeah we 
Speaker 10: It might be that it's a tighter ship [01:40:56] if we haven't rise 
Speaker 1: it. My opinion is it's a tighter ship if we authorize the chief to do this not exclusive of signatures, but in lieu of signatures where it's appropriate, 
Speaker 4: yeah, that's that's [01:41:11] the 
Speaker 11: basic. We have people that come, you know, if you came to a fire or came down here to stand by as you're welcome to if not needed. For example, Steve, what was it Monday night 
Speaker 9: Monday [01:41:26] night. We had company meeting. 
Speaker 11: Well, I said a crew with the tanker tanker operation Mutual Aid structure fire to West Clinton. I got a crew together Steven. I've done it many times together. You only need three people to run the tanker operation. So I signed three [01:41:41] people take the tanker over email stay if you want it to stay for the duration of the call and tell the tanker came back home and was put back in service. You're welcome to but if you left prior to the tanker returning [01:41:56] don't sign the sheet, there's no sheep. You had to be at the station for the duration of the call. So yes, the thank you. We are tight 
Speaker 10: and that enforce that and giving them the 
Speaker 9: ability to write those names down enforced [01:42:11] that that that higher level of accountability and that and that's why I make the motion and again, it's not to occur. To exclude people signing it's to allow the chief to put names down in lieu of a 
Speaker 10: signature. Sounds good. 
Speaker 6: [01:42:27] Where are we on that maybe second it or we haven't we 
Speaker 1: have a motion. We have a second if there's no other discussion can we can vote any other discussion? Mike what's your pleasure? 
Speaker 12: Hi Ross. 
Speaker 8: Hi Bob. 
Speaker 4: [01:42:42] I'm going to abstain on that one 
Speaker 10: Kevin I 
Speaker 8: live or die is Wells to that motion 
Speaker 9: carries four to zero to one abstention. 
Speaker 7: All right, 
Speaker 4: and Steve we're going [01:42:57] to have we're going to continue a derivation of this conversation. Nay in February. Correct? 
Speaker 1: Yes in February we have we're going to have to deal. That challenge okay, and and there will be a lot of [01:43:12] tangential information. I think relative to that I do have from the 
Speaker 7: company. 
Speaker 10: A list 
Speaker 1: of fundraisers that are planned 
Speaker 9: [01:43:29] for 2012 fundraiser 
Speaker 1: and social activities not exclusively 
Speaker 9: fundraisers. I want to read off 
Speaker 1: the ones that are 
Speaker 9: closest because one certainly will occur before [01:43:44] the 
Speaker 1: January meeting and the other to be considerate whether we approve or disapprove we should let the company know. 
Speaker 9: At this meeting because they would have to 
Speaker 1: make plans and purchases 
Speaker 9: prior to the February [01:43:59] meeting. So the activities are a chicken barbecue 
Speaker 1: on January 30th. No alcohol will 
Speaker 9: be served take out only at the firehouse. 
Speaker 10: The second is a fish 
Speaker 9: fry [01:44:14] which aren't held on Fridays February 1926, March 5th 
Speaker 1: 12th, 1926 and April 2nd. 
Speaker 9: No alcohol beer will be served 
Speaker 1: 2020 [01:44:29] or expenses were 20 $166. The prophet was sixteen hundred dollars in 
Speaker 9: six sixteen hundred sixty dollars over the top of that average number of people each week was 45 but in this case again, We take out only from the 
Speaker 10: firehouse. [01:44:44] So those are the two we have to 
Speaker 9: consider tonight. There's also an Easter egg hunt April 3rd 
Speaker 10: without it. There's this is not a 
Speaker 9: fundraiser. It's a community event. There's there's no collections or money or [01:44:59] money being exchanged. The lobster dinner would be September 
Speaker 10: 25th 
Speaker 9: project a pig roast for October 
Speaker 1: 9th the lobster dinner and the pig 
Speaker 9: roast. Beer will be served [01:45:14] in a liquor license will be 
Speaker 7: obtained. We don't need to 
Speaker 9: vote on that and then the Santa run is projected for December 18th, again, not a fundraiser 
Speaker 10: but a social 
Speaker 9: activity. So 
Speaker 1: [01:45:30] we need to consider tonight 
Speaker 9: the chicken barbecue. There's a 
Speaker 1: maximum of a hundred 
Speaker 9: tickets at twelve dollars a ticket. No alcohol served all take out. Out and we need to consider tonight the fish fry for Friday's in February [01:45:45] March and in April 2nd beginning of the 
Speaker 12: 19th of February. 
Speaker 9: So I would move that we authorize the department to hold the chicken barbecue on January 30th for take-out only [01:46:00] that we authorize the department to hold their fish fry commencing February 19th, all the Friday's of land through April 2nd again take out only. A work to be done at 
Speaker 10: the firehouse. I covered a second second. 
Speaker 9: [01:46:16] Okay any discussion on either of these two events 
Speaker 10: and delicious 
Speaker 9: and that is true. The fish 
Speaker 12: is absolutely 
Speaker 9: okay any other discussion? [01:46:32] Russ what's your 
Speaker 6: pleasure? I 
Speaker 12: Mike 
Speaker 10: Kevin? Hi Bob. Hi, 
Speaker 9: I vote aye as well those of that motion carries [01:46:48] up to the up to the committee. Do we want to consider the other ones or do I want to give this to Karen and she can distribute that and we and we can consider the rest at the February 
Speaker 10: meeting. Do it later. Okay [01:47:03] sold. 
Speaker 9: All right. Did everyone get in 
Speaker 1: his folder a copy of this 
Speaker 10: postcard? No. 
Speaker 5: You're gonna have to wait while I put my tongue [01:47:18] out and search for it on. My 
Speaker 11: email 
Speaker 10: just showed up on your screen. 
Speaker 8: Here we go. Here we go. 
Speaker 7: [01:47:35] Susan upon 
Speaker 10: one of us all excited just to let us down here 
Speaker 7: Steve open for Miles. 
Speaker 5: Okay. Now I got to go back here Zoom 
Speaker 1: here screen. 
Speaker 8: [01:47:52] Click their share buh-bam. What do 
Speaker 10: you say 
Speaker 4: save your applause save your applause. 
Speaker 8: So the 
Speaker 5: intent here Believe correct me Susan [01:48:07] if you're still on the line is 
Speaker 8: 2y and fill demonstrate that 
Speaker 5: the fire department and rescue squad are very much engaged very active and have a very high response rate and I think it is worth [01:48:22] communicating that to the community 
Speaker 8: as well as the second part which is to 
Speaker 5: tell people that we need help and we need members. 
Speaker 8: Purrs, and 
Speaker 5: [01:48:37] inform people of community events that we have forthcoming as soon as covid. Let's sub CPR first aid fire safety classes. 
Speaker 8: So I 
Speaker 5: believe Susan that you said that $85 was the printing cost for 750 [01:48:52] of these 
Speaker 3: posters. It's actually if I may interrupt you to actually lower there happens to be a 50% sale that's going on on this to print and so it's actually cheaper to print. Thousand of the four by six [01:49:07] cards, which would be about 55 
Speaker 10: dollars. Okay, and then postage was going to be 
Speaker 9: 35 cents each times. We figure 750 
Speaker 3: households. That's correct. All 
Speaker 9: right. So that's 262. So to 62 [01:49:22] plus 55 is 317. I would 
Speaker 1: move 
Speaker 7: that. 
Speaker 1: We authorize the fire company. Ready and rescue squad [01:49:37] to print 
Speaker 9: and mail. 
Speaker 1: The postcard as you see the proof in front of you at the expense of the district to the tune of not to exceed $400 
Speaker 10: icon second discussion. 
Speaker 5: [01:49:53] Okay, any discussion or input on this 
Speaker 10: very good idea all I yeah, pretty much. 
Speaker 8: All right, Bob. What's your 
Speaker 5: pleasure? Hi, 
Speaker 8: Kevin. Hi. 
Speaker 6: + hi 
Speaker 8: Mike 
Speaker 1: [01:50:10] sighs. Well that motion 
Speaker 9: carries. Make sure you Malibu's Curtain County 911 Center 
Speaker 3: attention dang good the other thing that I just got to say about it is that the mailing list [01:50:25] I did get I have asked Theresa stegner the taxa. Collector to give me an updated list so that we make sure that they go to the right places with the addresses. 
Speaker 7: [01:50:41] Alright 
Speaker 9: now the last thing I have on the agenda before we go to public comment is if you're an 
Speaker 10: ambulance. And I 
Speaker 9: think last meeting [01:50:56] we were very much convinced 
Speaker 6: that 
Speaker 9: this would be a good opportunity. I was in contact with Tom. I can't remember his last name Ed Sheeran and he did state that he would like a letter of intent [01:51:12] if we move tonight to purchase the ambulance and obviously Rod, I would want your help a little bit with a letter of intent. To cover changes in mechanical [01:51:27] condition changes in you know condition due to Collision clean title. 
Speaker 10: What other caveat Smite we put in there too. 
Speaker 9: When do you expect to get it by May June time 
Speaker 7: frame? 
Speaker 6: [01:51:50] I'll do the Drafting and I'll send it to you and 
Speaker 9: Karen to put the 
Speaker 12: particulars in like the year in the model and right and we have all that information 
Speaker 9: Kevin. I believe 
Speaker 10: did [01:52:06] the Juniors 
Speaker 9: who are the people who have been doing 
Speaker 3: all that the endolymph, unlike 
Speaker 9: the vast majority of the maintenance on the on the rig and they state that it's in very good shape. 
Speaker 10: It will fit in the firehouse with a whole lot more [01:52:21] room to spare then what? 38 38 fits in the firehouse will have will have more than that inch-and-a-half Clarence we get with the tanker when that pulls out. So, 
Speaker 9: [01:52:36] you know, do we want to combine this with a with a vehicle strategy? We need to sell a 
Speaker 4: vehicle. If a vehicle or the existing, 
Speaker 10: well, that's that's that's what we want 
Speaker 9: to decide right [01:52:51] and and there was there was talk that a good Decon vehicle would be the old ambulance and we could sell the support vehicle. I could also see [01:53:06] there's no Hill. I'm gonna die on here, right if we already have the support vehicle it offers some other utility other than What converted ambulance does you know? [01:53:21] I'm going to make a motion that we authorized me to sign a letter of intent. I don't I'm not bashful to say that, you know, you know, we need to sell 
Speaker 10: [01:53:36] the support vehicle to the ambulance and if we want to fight it out 
Speaker 9: tonight, that's great. If we want to fight it out on at another night. That's great, too. So I'm going to move that. I be authorized to sign a letter of intent [01:53:52] as prepared by Rod stating our desire to purchase the Sharon ambulance to the tune of 
Speaker 10: Some dollars so long as come May and June timeframe, [01:54:07] right? It is still in a condition that would 
Speaker 9: warrant 
Speaker 7: us 
Speaker 10: to complete the deal and I covet a second on that motion 
Speaker 4: second for discussion. 
Speaker 10: All right, Bob was saying 
Speaker 4: I'm okay [01:54:22] with that as long as we sell the existing ambulance that we've talked about the the framed and the engine isn't. Really up to carrying its box. There are some stability issues. And with the [01:54:38] we have vehicle is is an entity that does what it was purchased for and it can be modified for if you're going to do Decon if that's the direction you need to go but playing around with [01:54:54] this happened with the brush truck art and myself and I forget who else We get no problem with a new brush truck and then all of a sudden, oh, we're keeping the old one because we absolutely need that but the discussion [01:55:09] was what we've got it. We've got to get a new one. I don't want to see that happening with the with the ambulance that we could use that money to help pay for the new ambulance because it wasn't in the budget to 
Speaker 7: begin with. 
Speaker 9: [01:55:29] Probably my motion and should include how we're going to pay for it shouldn't it rod? You're done. You're on mute. Hi. Yes, although you do have money in general fund to pay for it. 
Speaker 10: Yes, [01:55:44] but I should probably include that as part of the motion. Yeah. All right, so and I'm not taking away from what you're saying Bob, but I would I would like to with your permission modify the motion to include to be paid [01:55:59] for. 
Speaker 9: from the 2020 general fund 
Speaker 10: Surplus Yeah, okay. Alright, so that's going to be part of the you're going to modify that motion 
Speaker 9: accordingly. So I'm looking for everybody [01:56:14] else to give input on this Russ Mike Kevin Bob stated very strong pain and I have a hard time disputing the fact that the ambulance, you know, we have stated part of the reason there's not a good fit as because it is [01:56:29] so difficult with the van style to repair and that it 
Speaker 10: is 
Speaker 9: heavy relative to the to the So, you know, I think everybody's input on this one. 
Speaker 10: Well Steve, I would have to trust you guys on this because you guys know the bill the vehicles but [01:56:44] much better than I do, you know if I've seen him four times that's about it. 
Speaker 11: They I weigh in on this. I think I have a little information 
Speaker 9: offer. Go ahead 
Speaker 11: first [01:56:59] Bob. We never look to get rid of 63. It's many pumper not a brush truck. So there was never in the whole plan to get rid of that vehicle. It wasn't communicated to the 
Speaker 4: board. Wait for our vote. 
Speaker 9: I was I was a little surprised on although I do [01:57:14] acknowledge your statement 
Speaker 10: that that 
Speaker 9: 63 was never a brush truck, 
Speaker 10: but I And honestly, I was a little surprised that we opted to keep it but I didn't fight it. Go ahead. 
Speaker 11: All right, that's fine. II never that [01:57:29] was never part of the agenda. I knew of my take and take of my officer staff is that we sell the current rehab Decon vehicle and keep the current ambulance [01:57:44] and there's many levels for doing that notwithstanding the mileage. And already the rehab Decon vehicle also, is it becomes the current [01:57:59] ambulance will also be our ice rescue vehicle. We lost the boat very wisely did which where our ice rescue cold water rescue emergency suits 
Speaker 12: and life Rings, etc. Etc were retained in 
Speaker 11: [01:58:15] if we utilize the current 71 as are deep. Be kind rehab and also ice rescue the cabinet's on the outside would be utilized for that. There'd be other weights. I hear Bob's [01:58:30] and not disagreeing that okay. Yes, but within this the weights would actually probably reduced that are on it. Now one of the large contributing factors, which is a real factor. Is that fits in the in the [01:58:45] current base current pays so that getting another it ambulance smart move keeping the old ambulance for Rehab Decon ice water rescue vehicle Smart Move. It fits in The Bays [01:59:00] just had some major repair done to it. It's got new tires. No comment from Steve. Thank you. It's got new brakes. It's been reworked. We know it. We've had it since it's been new. It's in respectful shape. I think we'd be [01:59:15] far better served to sell the rehab vehicle. That sitting outside and keep the ambulance and I also believe you retain more money by doing that. I think you get more money for the vehicle outside than you would [01:59:30] for the current ambulance. See what you take on the value of those two. 
Speaker 10: Well, I mean and I was going to ask that question. 
Speaker 9: I don't know what we could get for. The current [01:59:45] ambulance. I'm guessing it would be topside 15 to 20. 
Speaker 12: Yes, but maybe as a 
Speaker 9: food truck. I'm guessing the support vehicle. I got a sneeze. Excuse me. [02:00:00] We might be able to. Excuse me, get a little bit more, you know, we could turn it into an economic 
Speaker 10: decision. 
Speaker 12: I got a couple of questions if you're done Steve and Mike 
Speaker 10: [02:00:15] a 
Speaker 12: couple questions one will the ambulance ambulance and the one that we want to keep which would be the older ambulance. Would they fit in back-to-back in the world? They do they will [02:00:30] fit lengthwise. Okay, and then my other question Is that rehab stuff that's on the rehab vehicle would be a cost just switching that over to the ambulance be done in 
Speaker 10: house. It can be done. Okay, 
Speaker 2: you also get and talk to the guys [02:00:45] about the stretcher. I think it said we could sell 
Speaker 11: that. Oh, yeah. Well, that's right Steve remember the structure if we Either way, but if you sell the ambulance or if we keep it as deep and Rehab what's [02:01:00] the gain $10,000 you didn't add in there for the stretcher. Remember that that that the structure would be sold and that has a market value of I forgot exactly what it was it was there several thousand dollars [02:01:15] that you'd also retain above and beyond for the stretcher and since 71 now. 
Speaker 4: Are you going to load up a generator on that ambulance? If you go that direction? Yeah, 
Speaker 11: y'all work would be done in house 
Speaker 10: Bob. [02:01:30] That would be a portable but not being 
Speaker 9: attached generator would be a portable generator 
Speaker 11: by now. Yeah. Yeah, we do it. 
Speaker 6: The stretcher you talking about isn't that the thing that Susan was just talking about which is almost Obsolete and would cost a lot to repair [02:01:45] something which you 
Speaker 11: in comparison when the tech was down here Sue. Are you still there? 
Speaker 7: Jane the green. 
Speaker 11: Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, that was the question we asked him but what that would bring [02:02:00] and it was it was a respectable 
Speaker 9: figure. It was me. I was there 
Speaker 12: you see what was it? You said 
Speaker 11: $1,500. No, that's so for the ridiculous offer. You didn't accept. Yeah, he said no, that's what somebody throw at you [02:02:15] but as a few thousand 
Speaker 6: dollars anyway, but yeah, but I thought I thought she said earlier that this item was very old would be very hard to get parts for in be costly to repair. It sounds like it's an obsolete thing that I don't know. 
Speaker 11: That's why it's not $25,000 [02:02:31] judge. 
Speaker 9: It's still worth money and 
Speaker 11: it's still worth money. If it was like the one we're getting in the Sharon rig if that's the direction. It's up here you Remember that everything has value. [02:02:46] I mean look at your yard, so that the so therefore I say something there you going waiting for you. 
Speaker 3: I know I'm sorry. I said busy. And so so the point is that to keep it as [02:03:01] a hydraulic manual hydraulic lift that the panel wants that goes that can't be replaced. However, that stretcher still has value because it can be manually lifted. As we have recently found out [02:03:17] so it does retain its it does retain some value judge. 
Speaker 6: Which one you can get the most for I find it hard to believe and [02:03:32] I'm not really what either one of them watched it you can get more for what I call the hot dog wagon than you would for the ambulance. 
Speaker 11: Oh, I believe so all day long. Absolutely. What would that be usable for hot dog wagon food truck. 
Speaker 5: [02:03:58] Get 20,000 for that. 
Speaker 3: Well, I'm especially because because it's covid times that was restaurants being shut down more people are looking at food truck because it's virtually all take out 
Speaker 6: if you could get equal to what [02:04:13] you could get for that ammos and the ambulance would fit in the bay with the other one in front of it. So you could have both vehicles inside then it would make more sense to me to keep the current one. But like I say, that would be [02:04:28] Predicated on getting a good price for the present Decon vehicle or whatever called Recon vehicle and having both vehicles being able to be inside of the 
Speaker 4: weather. Russ what I'm worried about is the maintenance on [02:04:43] the old ambulance going 
Speaker 10: forward. Well, honestly, I'm worried about maintenance and either vehicle because they don't get 
Speaker 1: run enough and that new ambulance. Neither. One of them is going to get run 
Speaker 10: enough if that's [02:04:58] the vehicle we keep 
Speaker 5: I mean and that's that's an ongoing battle. That's what we saw with. That's what we've seen with other vehicles that we've had sent. You know, how many how many miles a year do we put on that current? 
Speaker 10: We have 
Speaker 5: vehicle. I [02:05:13] wouldn't think we put 500 miles on this 
Speaker 6: year. Well, I mean this is kind of a humorous thing. But I have five vehicles on the road and I make a purpose of driving every vehicle I Alternate which vehicles I [02:05:28] drive. So I exercise in my mind say and you have to take the vehicle is not being used very much and you did you take it out on a drill you take it out and you just keep it moving. So your things aren't season up and stuff. 
Speaker 9: now [02:05:43] my 
Speaker 10: perspective here is that the important thing is that we get a letter consent out to Sharon. 
Speaker 9: I think it's equally important that we're in agreement that we need to sell a 
Speaker 10: vehicle. 
Speaker 1: [02:05:59] One of the basic 
Speaker 9: tenants of providing Emergency Care is that you need to give the patient the opportunity to make informed consent and I'd be much more comfortable instead 
Speaker 10: of we think we can get this for the ambulance. We know 
Speaker 9: [02:06:14] we can get that for the car. We think 
Speaker 10: maybe unless but it is old. And you know, I would want to verify that the length of that new ambulance and the length of the current ambulance. We could actually [02:06:29] get it in because I don't know if you remember 
Speaker 9: done when we had the 
Speaker 10: ambulance and 66-63 back-to-back. It was awful tight in that spot. 
Speaker 11: Yeah, I you know, I [02:06:44] let me let me follow up with that and in the comment that the Made totally agree. The vehicles need to be run on Monday night's take them out run them and do that and that includes all the 
Speaker 12: vehicles. 
Speaker 11: [02:06:59] They have those doesn't need much more running. But the so that thing's absolutely true. You got to run them. I would defy 
Speaker 9: the two 
Speaker 5: bigger vehicles in the ambulance. But the others the others kind of suffer 
Speaker 11: sometimes. Yes. [02:07:14] I'm verified that for you Steve. 
Speaker 12: All right 
Speaker 11: and make sure matter of fact it wouldn't be that hard to do to me. Play around with the ambulance tomorrow and and see if I can put that in buildings where the even to the point of where the Decon [02:07:29] trailer was. But I'm verify that for you. I think it's a good moving forward 
Speaker 10: idea. All right, so so 
Speaker 4: I still want to kick a dead horse. Yeah, that generator on the hot dog wagon has to be fixed to get the maximum [02:07:44] amount of dollar amount. Nobody's going to buy it if it doesn't work with them 
Speaker 12: moment. So this 
Speaker 6: is 
Speaker 11: No, no, no. No. No. No Bob's right Bob's out. There you go Mark that down and 
Speaker 3: [02:07:59] put that I have that. 
Speaker 10: I don't believe it. 
Speaker 11: I got an overly this year. 
Speaker 10: I would like to vote on the 
Speaker 9: motion with the 
Speaker 1: understanding that there's a definite inference [02:08:14] that we are absolutely going to sell one of these vehicles. Is 
Speaker 5: there anybody have any any doubt? Doubts or argument to the fact that we need to sell one of these vehicles Mike. Is that your understanding? 
Speaker 12: That sounds great over time 
Speaker 5: moving forward. We need to [02:08:29] sell one of that vehicle you're in you're in agreement with 
Speaker 6: that. Yes, I am. 
Speaker 8: All right, Kevin. Absolutely 
Speaker 4: Bob. Yes. 
Speaker 1: Alright. So therefore I would like us to vote on the motion. Can you read it, please Karen? 
Speaker 9: [02:08:45] I gotta find it. 
Speaker 10: Now keeping the Caribbean islands is the way to go. 
Speaker 7: Don't whisper 
Speaker 11: [02:09:16] number one and number two once you did that and backed all the way up to the loading dock. The nose is still sticking out through. Feet if 
Speaker 9: it doesn't fit 
Speaker 6: the multi-million dollar building and they made a boo-boo like 
Speaker 11: that. [02:09:31] Well, they didn't make the Booboo because the commercial ambulance is all fit in it. 
Speaker 3: Just barely 
Speaker 11: just barely so the volunteer ambulances which are generally the Box style commercially ambulance is a generally the van 
Speaker 4: [02:09:46] style that commercially 
Speaker 11: ambulances all fit in there barely. 
Speaker 5: All right there Kerry you got that motion. 
Speaker 3: Yes. Yes. The motion is to authorize Steve to sign a letter of intent as prepared by Rod stating our desire [02:10:01] to purchase the shampoo Sharon ambulance to the tune of 4:30. Thousand dollars as long as long as come met the man June time frame it is still in the condition that would warn us to complete the deal. [02:10:16] It is to be paid for from the 2020 general fund Surplus.

Speaker 8: contractors. He's 
Speaker 5: very much involved in a very 
Speaker 1: important project right 
Speaker 4: now. [02:10:46] He can put that on 
Speaker 10: hold. 
Speaker 1: No, he's very much involved in a very important project when he's done with the current 
Speaker 5: project. I'll take them down and we'll 
Speaker 8: take a look. 
Speaker 1: There was one other thing 
Speaker 6: [02:11:01] you're going to talk to Halton to I think 
Speaker 1: yeah, I'm I wanted to see where we're rich came men and if it was low enough holton's kind of proud of what he does. At least from my perspective, [02:11:16] but I want to see what richest 
Speaker 5: initial thoughts were and if it was low enough, maybe we could just get away with 
Speaker 6: out getting it to verbal estimates. Yeah 
Speaker 12: and debt Dan Halton also started his own business, I guess and he might think I did really yeah, [02:11:31] he might be looking for some work, too. 
Speaker 10: All right, I'll make a note of that.
