Fire Chief Report

As many of you have probably seen, the Harry Chapin Food Bank has been visiting our island on a weekly basis to provide meals to members of our community, and specifically the service industry workers who have been struggling to make ends meet during this water quality crisis. Our team members have had the great opportunity to volunteer and assist with this event and I am happy to report that the Harry Chapin Food Bank was able to hand out approximately 300 meals to our community in the first two weeks. I would like to thank our members who have volunteered, the members of our community who have supported this effort, and the Harry Chapin Food Bank for providing meals to our community during this time of need. Members of our team attended a Geographic Division meeting at the Lee County Emergency Operations Center to continue preparations for hurricane operations and to review updates to the hurricane plan in order to be able to ensure that we are all working collaboratively to ensure the safety of our members and our communities. Recently members of our department had the privilege of being a part of the Brotherhood Ride. The 2018 Brotherhood Ride was dedicated to 20 Fallen Heroes from Florida who died in the line of duty while protecting their communities. The riders cycle through the state of Florida for 7 days, covering over 600 miles and average 80-100 miles a day. The ride began in North Naples on September 9th and will ended on September 15th in Tallahassee, Florida. We would like to thank the riders for including our department along their way to honor our Fallen Brother Battalion Chief Michael Coenen.

A couple of weeks ago, we hosted a 9/11 Remembrance Ceremony at Fire Station 33 to honor the victims of this tragic event. I would like to thank the community and our members who attended the event and give a special thank you to our Honor Guard for putting on such a wonderful event for such a somber occasion.

Please join me in congratulating our newest Driver Engineer’s, Shaun Jensen, Billy Galewski, and Alex Gonzalez. These individuals were involved in the promotional examination process and have been selected from the eligibility list for the three vacant Driver Engineer positions. We will see their swearing-in ceremony in the coming months.

I hope all members of our community have enjoyed their summer and I wish you all the best!

Matthew R. Love Fire Chief

Operations Branch

Operations Branch Supervisor-Executive Assistant Fire Chief Scott Wirth The search for the very best ladder truck for our community continued in August. The committee wrapped up its evaluation of the three preferred vendor’s products. The committee took a day trip to The Villages community to test drive and operate their 95’ mid-mount platform ladder truck. The hands-on experience really provided some invaluable insight into the E-One product offering. On August 27, the committee took a three-day trip to Pierce Manufacturing in Appleton, Wisconcin. Pierce flew the committee members to Wisconsin for two days of test driving and operating Pierce’s mid-mount 100’ platform ladder truck. The committee also received tours of their ladder, chassis and assembly plants receiving insight into the entire process that goes into building these complex vehicles from the ground up. The final recommendations were provided to the Chief for the next step in the process. Executive Assistant Fire Chief Wirth, EMS Division Chief Kraus, and Facilities and Logistics Manager Mike Annunziato attended the recent Operative IQ training and conference. Operative IQ is the inventory and asset management system used to track repair, supply, and inventory requests throughout the department. The event provided three days of training sessions on managing the various modules offered by Operative IQ.

Emergency Medical Services (EMS)

EMS Division Supervisor- Division Chief Randy Kraus In August, the Emergency Medical Services Division conducted quite a bit of training on the heart. Our review consisted of the pathophysiology of the electrical system of the heart, and different arrhythmias that can cause heart related illnesses. Those protocols included bradycardia, tachycardia, bundle branch blocks, and ventricular dysrhythmias. We also reviewed congested heart failure, and cardiac related chest pain. In our monthly in service, our crews participated in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) contests with our new Quality CPR Manikins, which will be required nationally in 2019. The final training in August was on a new occlusive dressing, which is used for treating “sucking chest wounds” in trauma patients. The new dressing provides a one-way vent, which can automatically allow for the release of pressure build up within the thoracic cavity.

Life Safety & Support Services Branch

Life Safety & Support Services Branch Supervisor- Executive Assistant Fire Chief Ron Martin The month of August was extremely active for the Life Safety and Support Service Branch seeing several major projects completed to enhance services internally and externally. First, the proposed Fee Schedule Draft was completed and submitted to the Fire Chief. Secondly, the Life Safety Division has been working very closely with the Town of Fort Myers Beach in regards to Short Term Rentals. With an effective date of the Town’s ordinance of August 1, 2018 this led to a meeting to discuss the process for joint enforcement by the two agencies working cooperatively together. This will effectively add a bit more enforcement capability to the Fire Department’s Ordinance. A significant amount of time has been devoted by the Life Safety Team to get such companies as Century 21 Tri-Power to make their properties available to us for inspection. Working with Town Code Enforcement, they have scheduled numerous properties for inspection. Finally, thanks to efforts of Life Safety Specialist Lloyd Adams, working with our partners in the Safe Kids Coalition of Southwest Florida, our community is going to be the recipient of the inaugural Southwest Florida Water Safety Symposium. This symposium will be a community education event bringing a multitude of experts to educate our community about the prevention of drowning and water accidents in our community.

• A special thank you to Executive Assistant Fire Chief Ron Martin for the endless hours of research,

planning and coordinating with vendors to transition our phone and data communications to a state-of-the-art system. The new system reduces our monthly communications cost and allowed us greater control over internal programming of our phone system. Better and more efficient systems at a reduced cost, this is truly a win-win for our team members and community.

• Human Resource Assistant Patty Coram attended the annual Florida State Society for Human Resource Management Conference. This conference provides valuable updates to federal laws and state laws, compliance challenges, and best practices for a wide spectrum of human resource related issues. Two hot topics at the conference were ‘coaching employees’ and ‘employee engagement’ – these are areas that Tenzinga (our new performance management system) will address and aid us in retaining employees.

• Administrative staff began the final phase of records review of physical documents contained in onsite and offsite storage locations. We anticipate completion of this process by the end of the fiscal year, allowing additional space for better organization of filing current documents.

ACTION [Discussion/Approval]

PURPOSE Approve the updated fee schedule for Life Safety Services.

AGENDA CATEGORY: New Business ITEM 11A AGENDA ITEM: Rescinding of District Resolution 2015-07 SUBJECT: Removing a resolution superseded by the Schedule of Fees OTHER: N/A


PURPOSE Rescind District Resolution 2015-07, which required prevention and life safety related vendors to use a specific system for project submittal and payment, as this is superseded by the adoption of a new Schedule of Fees and system.

HISTORY In 2015 the District implemented a fee and submittal system for fire safety systems related to the use of Brycer LLC electronic formatting systems. With the adoption of the recent Schedule of Fees, this system is no longer required and the fee no longer necessary to charge vendors. This item is in direct correlation with the District’s Proposed 2018/2019 Budget and Schedule of Fees.

RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends Board members rescind the 2015-07 District Resolution.

RECOMMENDED MOTION Motion to rescind District Resolution 2015-07: A resolution of the Board of Commissioners of the Fort Myers Beach Fire Control District, Lee County, Florida, to require all fire safety systems inspections, testing, and maintenance reports performed by third party vendors, to be submitted through an electronic format, through a vendor of the Districts choosing, effective November 1, 2018.
