Frank Coffey <br />, 1200 Admirals Walk, restated the petition that was discussed at the <br />last meeting of the Emergency Services District Advisory Committee. The concern was whether <br />there is sufficient staff to ensure that this job is done properly. He hoped this would not affect the <br />other services being provided by the firefighters. <br />In response to Commissioner Lowther’s inquiry, Director King stated that fire <br />prevention applies to existing buildings and facilities as well as new construction. Staff is being <br />reassigned from re-inspections of existing buildings to new construction so we are not delaying the <br />contractors. It would take a huge staff to annually inspect the several thousand existing buildings, <br />so nursing homes, assisted living facilities, hospitals, and daycare centers have been prioritized as <br />#1 and are inspected annually. Facilities that are #2 priorities are inspected every other year, and <br />#3 priorities are worked in as time permits. It is not a perfect solution, but there is a major effort to <br />go in that direction. <br />Chairman Ginn had talked with someone in the Building Department who told her <br />they had 490 plans to evaluate and only 6 employees to review those plans, so they are under a <br />tremendous amount of pressure also. She understood that sometimes it takes additional personnel. <br /> <br />The Chairman asked if anyone else wished to be heard regarding this matter. There <br />were none and the Chairman closed the public hearing. <br /> <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Neuberger, SECONDED <br />by Commissioner Lowther, the Board unanimously <br />adopted Ordinance No. 2004-021 amending the Indian <br />River County Code Chapter 208, Emergency Services <br />District by adding a fire protection code section; providing <br />definitions; providing for assessing costs of cleanup of <br />spills of hazardous materials, providing for costs of <br />re-inspections of fire safety inspections; providing for <br />payment of costs associated with extraordinary duties <br />July 6, 2004 <br />20 <br /> <br />
