Village of Cayuga Heights
Monthly Report - May, 2009
May was a very busy month with a total of 45 runs. We had 31 calis in the Village of
Cayuga Heights, 12 calls in the Town of Ithaca and2 requests for mutual aid. There
were 16 fire calls and 29 EMS calls. As with many other months requests for medical
emergencies continues to dominate the call volume. The dedicated EMS providers of the
department are ready at all times to respond to requests for help. Within a month we will
have four new paramedics in the department. A11 of these providers are already members
and EMS providers and have been taking the paramedic program for the past year. They
will test out at the end of June. We also had several motor vehicle crashes (MVC) this
month. Luckily there were no serious injuries at any of these incidents.
As with every summer our training program has slowed down. With family vacations
and students leaving the area for the summer attendance historically drops over June, July
and August. We use this time to move members thiough the checklist process in order to
move them up through the ranks. This work is important for those working on the
checklist in order to help polish their skills but also serves as a training aid to the senior
firefighters working with them. It allows all of us to keep our skills fresh especially with
tools and techniques we do not use very often. We are asking the board's approval to
allow a group of officers to attend the Firehouse Expo in Baltimore over the weekend of
July 23'o to 26tn. There are six officers of the department who are planning to travel to
Baltimore forthis weekend of training. We drive down on Thursday and take trainings
all day on Friday and Saturday and return on Sunday. Our officers attend trainings over
the weekend on the latest techniques on fire suppression tactics and training techniques.
Also during this weekend our EMS officers take classes on new EMS procedures as well
as EMS training topics. The EMS aspect to the Fire Expo weekend started at last years
show and was very well received. All of the classes over the weekend are taught by
nationally recognized instructors and our officers come home with some very valuable
training. This is a training event we attend annually.
Our yard sale at the end of May was once again very successful. Lt Dave Openshaw
organized a very well thought out and very well put together event. This year we
accepted donation only during the week prior to the sale and we were all unsure if that
,, trf E,LP P R.EVEIVT F T RE S"
would be enough time. Our members reaily worked hard and put in some long hours
taking in donations at the station as well as traveling around the area picking donations
up at people's homes. It seemed like everybody in our community contributed something
to the sale. Over the last weekend in May we opened out doors and sold pretty much
everything we had taken in. It was a great event for us as well as the community. At the
end of the weekend the Etna Fire Department came and took every'thing we did not sell
from us for a yard sale benefit they were having the first weekend in June at their station.
It worked out very well for all involved. As I said in last months report the proceeds
from the yard sale this year and last year as well at the proceeds from the donation letter
have all gone into the purchase of the new LP15 that we hope to take delivery of in June.
At training in mid May at the burn tower E203's radiator failed. We had the truck towed
to Caskey's garage in Dryden for repairs. The failure was caused by corrosion in the
radiator and an RPM spike when the truck was switched from RPM to pressure mode
while pumping. The radiator had to be completely replaced. This took the truck out of
service for three weeks. We do have it back now and it is working perfectly. L231 is
still having some issues with the paint on the officer's side of the truck. Last summer it
went out to the dealers for-a new paint job due to the same problem. This spring we
noticed that the paint was again bubbling at the weld site. The truck will be going back
to the dealer to have the work done again" All of this paint work is covered by the
warranty on the truck.
The station is in good shape at this time. We did have to do some maintenance to the air
conditioning units in late May. Our heating and air conditioning contractor came in and
serviced all of the units and found a minor leak in one of the lines. We are working with
them to get this problem corrected. They also looked over the way the boiler and heat
system was piped at construction and determined that the system is not piped efficiently.
They looked things over and came up with a plan to repipe the boiler room. I will speak
to Brent Cross and have the contractor go over his plan with him and I hope that we can
