The Women's Fund will secure carbon monoxide detectors for use with our smoke detector program, already in place. d) SWAT /CINT /CP Vehicle: Discussions continue on developing funding for this vehicle, but the City has not made a commitment to fund it as yet. [Same report as last month.] e) Assistance to Fire Fighter's Grant (AFG): As reported last month, an application was submitted for the 2008 AFG.

Fire Prevention Bureau 1) Please see Deputy Fire Chief Parson's report of Fire Prevention Bureau activities for the month of March. Safety Section 1) Protective Equipment Maintenance Standard Resolution At the March meeting, the Board requested clarification regarding various policy aspects of the proposed resolution.

OPERATIONS DIVISION Response 1) Monthly Call Report See distributed reports for 2008, year -to -date, and the seven -year summary of response data. 2) Emergency Management a) Emergency Management Exercise: No report. b) Pre - Disaster Mitigation Grant: Starting in 2002, the City of Ithaca engaged in a project to develop a pre- disaster mitigation plan.

The attached memo outlines the position and opinions of fire department staff. 4) Hazardous Materials Joint Training Event Yesterday the Ithaca Fire Department participated with Chemung County in a multi - agency hazardous materials exercise in Van Etten. While DC Dorman will report more on this next month, the performance of IFD's HazMat Team was very positive.

Support 1) See Deputy Chief Dorman's reports for APR 2008. 2) Training Center Reports — a) Usage report not available for this month. b) Training Center addition project: Additional funding to support this initiative has not been secured as yet. Training 1) See report from DC Dorman. VOLUNTEER SERVICES DIVISION Recruitment and Retention 1) Explorer Post: Efforts to determine interest and feasibility continue. Service 1) Summaries of Service Hours: In the face of many other and pressing priorities, the resolution to address the issue of service and training hours distributed for the Board to consider at the February meeting has not been sent to the eight volunteer companies and the Ithaca Veteran Volunteer Firemen's Association.

Wilbur Re: Ithaca Fire Department Staff Opinions on CWT Date: 10 JUN 08 Per your request, this memo is provided to detail the opinions of the Ithaca Fire Department staff officers regarding the potential impacts of the Cayuga Waterfront Trail on fire department operations. 1) The lane reduction proposed for the West Buffalo Street bridge over the Cayuga Inlet will have little or no impact on fire department operations. There are many other areas of our response district where much narrower roads or streets negatively impact us, so traveling through a lane restriction such as proposed over the Cayuga Inlet pales in comparison. Cliff Street, Highland Place, Dewitt Park Road, and many others are examples of streets that are narrow for the traffic they carry. In the area of the Cayuga Waterfront Trail, we note that one of the most difficult traffic corridors to move through in the emergency mode right now is the length of Fulton Street. 2) In previous statements, a traffic study of the entire west end corridor was suggested. Among other things, reviewing signal timing and the possibility of pre - emption systems for the traffic signals were suggested. Signal pre - emption would certainly be a significant tool for emergency services to use in moving through the intersections in this area. 3) Additionally, we have noted the turning movements coming into the intersection at Buffalo and Taughannock should be reviewed. As it is, when heading west on Buffalo, the vehicles waiting to turn left onto Taughannock create a significant backup on Buffalo as eastbound traffic on Buffalo clears the intersection. 4) West Hill traffic corridors in general are of concern to the fire department, and studying ways to reduce fire department response time to this area of our district would be very useful in the long term view. Thank you for the opportunity to comment. cc: Board of Fire Commissioners "An Equal Opportunity Employer with a commitment to workforce diversification."

New Business: Apparatus Committee — Has narrowed the bids down to 2 bidders. It will cost approximately $500,000 (or slightly more) for the new pumper. The Department expects to get 10 years front line service and 5 years reserve out of it. The City Attorney's ruling about the 2% money is as mentioned before. If the Companies don't start getting new members, they will end up dissolving. A resolution needs to be written to have a subcommittee meet with the volunteer companies to "review" what constitutes an "active department" — not what "determines ". A motion was made by Comm. Gilligan for someone from the IFD to meet with the Captains to determine and review. 2nd by Comm. Williams. Carried unanimously. Will report back in July. At 1915 hrs. the Board went into an Executive Session to discuss a personnel matter. At 1920 hrs. the Board resumed. IX. Hearing no other business, the meeting adjourned at 1922 hrs.
