AGENDA #: 7 A
PREPARED BY: FRANK BOYLES, CITY MANAGER
PRESENTATION: INTRODUCTION OF FIRE CHIEF HARTMAN
Fire Chief Doug Hartman started his full-time position with the City on January 25,
2010. With just a week under his belt, Chief Hartman is settling in and will be
undertaking a number of initiatives, including:
· Direct the review and revision of Fire Department Bylaws, policies and
procedures.
· Develop and implement an annual performance evaluation system for all fire
personnel.
· Establish office hours program and regular visitation with SMSC, Credit River
Township, and Spring lake Township Boards.
· Develop and implement a Fire Marshal annual inspection program including
commercial-industrial businesses, multi-unit buildings, and town homes.
· Develop a commercial business pre-plan program.
· Provide optional training for night shift fire personnel.
· Develop a paper and electronic filing system consistent with the City's digital
archive and implement City's records retention schedule.
These objectives will certainly take some time to implement. Each is important to
further improve our already strong Prior lake Volunteer Fire Department.
Doug will be present to introduce himself to the Council and answer any questions
the Council may have.
