Mayor & City Council <br />October 8, 1993 <br />Page 2 <br />In discussing this program with the Fire Chief, some last <br />minute revisions will be made before it is fully <br />implemented. However, I feel the concept is a good one and <br />by undertaking this program, we will be able to properly <br />address hazardous conditions which may exist within the <br />community. <br />Regarding the staffing of the program, I feel that we <br />should utilize part -time inspectors that will be serving at <br />the will of the City. Once we make the initial run through <br />of all commercial /industrial properties within the City, <br />the work load should lighten dramatically. Therefore, the <br />need to maintain personnel will be minimized. As a result, <br />I feel hiring a few part -time inspectors provides some <br />advantages to us in that PERA costs can be avoided and the <br />likelihood of paying unemployment insurance is minimized. <br />Should we hire one person on a more regular basis, we would <br />most likely be subjected to those costs. <br />I hope this information gives you a better understanding of <br />the intent of the fire inspection program. Should you have <br />any comments or questions after reviewing this material, <br />please let me know. <br />JRH:kpv <br />Enclosures <br />Page 44a <br />
