14. Investigate positive pay system - No action has been taken on this item other than <br />preliminary discussion with the bank. <br />15. Consolidate copier agreements and upgrade equipment where required - A survey of <br />existing equipment and agreements was completed. This project has been handing off to <br />MIS. Given MIS's work load, it may be reassigned to purchasing. <br />16. Implement Safety Coordinator position - This item is not including in my budget request <br />except as an item listed on things that need to be done if there is adequate funding. <br />17. Review and revise all job descriptions - I have asked Melba Harris to work on this as <br />time allows. <br />18. Evaluate feasibility of replacing warehouse building in accordance with purchasing agent <br />needs - An estimate to build a new building was obtained a few years ago but no funding <br />was provided. I looked at a building yesterday that backs up to the Public Works yard and <br />faced Center Street. It has office space and a 75 x 40 foot warehouse area and sits on <br />about an acre of land with room to unload trucks and for the trucks to get in and out <br />easily. The initial asking price is $125,000. It would require some cosmetic work but <br />looks like it might work. The Manager and the City Engineer need to look the building <br />over and give me their opinion. <br />Fire <br />*In Progress <br />1. Adoption of the 2006 International Fire Code - Scheduled far June 22, 2009 <br />2. Continue hydrant maintenance program, including cleaning, painting (with color-coding), <br />numbering, and GPS coordinates for each hydrant. <br />3. Fully implement Pre-Fire Pla.nning Program. <br />4. Continue to investigate suspected arson fires; over 30 during 2008, with an additional 10 <br />so far in 2009. Of those 40 or so cases, we've had 9 arrests and 9 convictions (as per <br />FM). <br />5. Enhance commercial inspection program by developing/training company inspection <br />teams (completion of this program dependent upon budget support, not only to cover the <br />OT costs, but for the needed Rank Restructuring). We are currently working to have our <br />facilities certified as a State Inspection Training Site so we can facilitate the training in- <br />house, thus reducing OT costs. <br />6. Refine interface between computer aided dispatch/records management system and <br />FireHouse software. <br />7. We are back to 100% staffing (2 recruits are still not on-shift, due to finishing training). <br />8. Enhance training for personnel (especially for our Haz-Mat personnel); currently have <br />rank-level personnel completing Fire Officer training at CCCC. <br />9. Have completed incident training drills with some industrial partners and have others <br />scheduled. <br />10. Provide fire extinguisher training for all City employees (awaiting fire ext. simulator). <br />11. Provide fire extinguisher training for the general public (some has been completed). <br />12. Pursue opportunities to access American Recovery and Reinvestment Act funding <br />(currently researching requirements and putting a submittal package together; also <br />contingent upon City budget support). <br />City of Paris Needs Assessment Page 6 <br />& 0 t~0 0 16 <br />
