Date June 12, 1985
A RESOLUTION RELATING TO AUTHORIZING DISPATCH AND USE OF CITY EQUIPMENT
AND SERVICES BY CITY CLERK ADMINISTRATOR IN EMERGENCY SITUATIONS
RESOLVED, That the City Council finds that instances have occurred in the past
and can be anticipated in the future wherein there is a danger by fire, hazard,
casualty or other similar occurrences taking place or occurring outside the
territorial limits of the City of Falcon Heights; and by the suddenness thereof
it would be impossible or impractical for the City Council to meet and authorize
the dispatch and use of City equipment and personnel to combat such fire, hazard,
casualty or other similar occurrence; therefore,
RESOLVED by the Falcon Heights City Council as follows:
The Council finds it desirable and necessary to authorize the City Clerk Administrator
or his designee to exercise discretion, considering at all times and in each case
the internal needs of the City of Falcon Heights and its inhabitants, to dispatch
City equipment and personnel as deemed necessary to combat such occurrence
whether it takes place within or without the City limits.
• BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that such dispatch and use as directed by the City Clerk
Administrator or his designee shall be fully authorized as an act of the City of
Falcon Heights and all provisions for compensation of personnel, rental of equipment,
liability insurance coverage, workman's compensation insurance and all other
safeguards and matters pertaining to the City, its equipment and personnel, shall
apply in each case as it specifically authorized and directed by this City Council
at such time, whether or not the governing body or authority in the place in which
the fire, hazard, casualty or other similar occurrence exists, has previously
requested and provided for assistance and the use of the Falcon Heights equipment
and personnel under a mutual protection agreement or other type protection
agreement with the City of Falcon Heights.
FURTHER, the City Clerk Administrator or his designee shall recall, order and
terminate the use of such equipment and personnel when the need for their use no
longer exists, or earlier, when at his discretion it appears in the best interest
of the City of Falcon Heights.
