INTRODUCTION <br />The year of 1994 was a year we were able to accomplish most of our goals <br />and continue to improve our delivery of service to our customers, our <br />citizens. <br />FIRE PREVENTION: <br />The Fire Prevention efforts; headed by Fire Marshal June Rodriguez <br />continue to improve each year and 1994 was not an exception. There are <br />many items to highlight for the year and those are listed in the report <br />included in this document. There are however, two items that deserve <br />special mention. All of the known businesses were inspected during 1994, <br />this is a first. A Safety Camp was held on August 10, 1994. This was a <br />cooperative effort of Circle Pines/Lexington Police, Lino Lakes Police, Lino <br />Lakes Park and Rec., and Centennial Fire Department. <br />TRAINING: <br />The training that the Training Staff, headed by Training Chief Glen Olson, <br />continues to provide sessions that keep firefighters up to date. An <br />evaluation of our training continues constantly to make sure it is effective. <br />EMERGENCY RUNS: <br />The run volume increase from 516 calls in 1992 to 610 calls in 1994 or a <br />18% increase. We were, however, fortunate not to have much fire loss due <br />to the fire type calls were very minor. The last part of the year showed an <br />increase in Carbon Monoxide alarms. We will need to adjust our response <br />to properly handle these calls. <br />STATIONS: <br />There has not been any changes in the status of the stations during the <br />year. We did hold an Open House in Station One in Circle Pines in April of <br />1994. <br />MEMBERSHIP: <br />The current membership level is 49 firefighters total for the three stations. <br />This seems to be a level that is working well for us, therefore we will try to <br />stay about this level. <br />Page 1 <br />
