2018 Annual Report • Fire Department • St. Anthony Village, Minnesota <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />27 | P a g e <br /> <br />These plans serve many purposes for us as a department and not just for fire events. They are a <br />tool for us to use when teaching new firefighters about building layouts, aids in planning for <br />natural disasters, hazardous material events and for evacuation planning among many other <br />uses. For years we have had these Pre-Plans in hand written and hand sketched form. We are in <br />the process of updating our Pre-Plans using newer tools and technology in order to paint a <br />much clearer picture of what we are walking into during the emergency. We are in the process <br />of updating our information on most commercial and multi-unit structures in the city. Having <br />advanced knowledge of building layout and certain fire related items labeled in advance, and in <br />hand, helps everyone involved. From the firefighter working the fire inside the structure to the <br />Incident Commander in charge of all firefighters on the scene. <br />Having Pre-Planned knowledge and hydrants supplying the correct amount of water flow does <br />wonders to save precious time while on the scene of an emergency, and most importantly, helps <br />to keep all involved a little more safe. <br />
