We had 35 calls in the Village of Cayuga Heights, 14 calls in the Town of Ithaca and 3 requests for mutual aid. There were 28 EMS calls and 27 fire runs. On April 4th we had a wind event in the village that resulted in 7 calls in one hour for trees and wires down. Crews fanned our through the village to block areas with wires down and to clear trees from roadways. It was a very busy time for the members of the department. It is amazing how localized these events are. Most of the departments surrounding us were not affected by this storm which happens often, one or two areas are hit hard and the storm passes others with no damage. We spent many of our training hours through April focusing on checklist work. We have set the deadline for first probie sign offs for Memorial Day weekend in May so these members need to focus on checklist work. Several of our members from the fall recruit class have completed the NYS Basic Exterior Firefighter Operations (BEFO) class and have now moved on to the Interior Firefighting Operations (IFO) class. We have three members getting ready to graduate from the Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) class at TC3. Katherine Lockwood took the NYS Youth Fire Starter Intervention Class at the fire academy. This class focuses on prevention of arson fires by children. She is working with BOCES to start an outreach program to take into local schools for fire prevention. Everything at the station seems to be working well at this time. Chris Shepherd, one of our bunkers, has been working hard to repair the damage to the lawn after the winter of plowing and salting. The DPW d ropped off several bucket loads of top soil and Chris has been raking and seeding and watering to bring life back to the lawn. We are expecting a quote soon from a roofing contractor for the work on the gutters around the station; he had to wait for all of the ice to melt before he could get a good look at the liner around the roof line. Richardson Brothers has been in contact about the LED light project and will plan on doing the work in early June. - 3 - EXHIBIT 2019-013 We would like to host Movies at the Station again this summer and will be asking the boards permission to do so at the May meeting. We have done Movies at the Station for the past two summers and it has been a great success. Our plan is to once again to do a movie every other week starting at 7:00 in the truck bay geared toward a younger kid crowd and then on the opposite week we will do an outside movie that will start later when the sun sets. We are also planning on having a food truck again. With summer fast approaching we are getting requests from members who are staying in Ithaca for June/July/August and would like to bunk at the station. Summer bunking is a great way for us to keep our members engaged through our short-staffed period. Everyone seemed to have a great night at the Installation Dinner. The officers were sworn in for the upcoming year and all have stepped easily into there roles. We are planning to have an officers meeting in early June to get some goals in place for the year. Sincerely, George Tamborelle Fire Chief/Fire Superintendent The Fire Department will be holding a movie night again this year. Permission is sought from the Board of Trustees to hold “Movies at the Station” from June 27, 2018 until August 15, 2018, skipping July 4th. Movie nights start at 1800 hours at the station. The Board is asked to waive the permit fee for this function. Resolution # BE IT RESOLVED THAT: the Village of Cayuga Heights Board of Trustees approves the Cayuga Heights Fire Department request to hold “Movies at the Station” during the requested date range. The permit fee is waived for this function.

The elevation of the floor of this enclosed area, which may be of soil, gravel, concrete or other material, must be equal to or above the lowest adjacent exterior grade. The enclosed crawl space area shall be properly vented to allow for the equalization of hydrostatic forces which would be experienced during periods of flooding. “Development” means any man-made change to improved or unimproved real estate, including but not limited to buildings or other structures, mining, dredging, filling, paving, excavation or drilling operations or storage of equipment or materials. “Federal Emergency Management Agency” means the Federal agency that administers the National Flood Insurance Program. “Flood” or “Flooding” means a general and temporary condition of partial or complete inundation of normally dry land areas from: (l) the overflow of inland or tidal waters; (2) the unusual and rapid accumulation or runoff of surface waters from any source. "Flood" or "flooding" also means the collapse or subsidence of land along the shore of a lake or other body of water as a result of erosion or undermining caused by waves or currents of water exceeding anticipated cyclical levels or suddenly caused by an unusually high water level in a natural body of water, accompanied by a severe storm, or by an unanticipated force of nature, such as a flash flood or an abnormal tidal surge, or by some similarly unusual and unforeseeable event which results in flooding as defined in (1) above. “Floodplain” or “flood prone area” means any land area susceptible to being inundated by water from any source (see definition of "Flood"). “Floodproofing” means any combination of structural and non-structural additions, changes, or adjustments to structures which reduce or eliminate flood damage to real estate or improved real property, water and sanitary facilities, structures and their contents. “Historic structure” means any structure that is: (1) listed individually in the National Register of Historic Places (a listing maintained by the Department of the Interior) or preliminarily determined by the Secretary of the Interior as meeting the requirements for individual listing on the National Register; 19 EXHIBIT 2019-020 (2) certified or preliminarily determined by the Secretary of the Interior as contributing to the historical significance of a registered historic district or a district preliminarily determined by the Secretary to qualify as a registered historic district; (3) individually listed on a state inventory of historic places in states with historic preservation programs which have been approved by the Secretary of the Interior; or (4) individually listed on a local inventory of historic places in communities with historic preservation programs that have been certified either: (i) by an approved state program as determined by the Secretary of the Interior or (ii) directly by the Secretary of the Interior in states without approved programs. “Local Administrator” is the person appointed by the community to administer and implement this local law by granting or denying development permits in accordance with its provisions. “Manufactured home” means a structure, transportable in one or more sections, which is built on a permanent chassis and designed to be used with or without a permanent foundation when connected to the required utilities.
