This improvement request is for implementation of an Employee Health and Wellness Program. A Request
for Proposals (RFP) would be developed to select a provider to implement the program. The request funds
occupational health services that include: health risk analysis, fluid sampling and biometrics, EKG, and
physical exams in year one.The second year would include all above services plus a work performance
evaluation. In FY 2022 and beyond the annual cost would be $35,500 so all services can be repeated each
year. This request seeks to reduce acute and chronic illnesses and injury, reducing the occurrence of lost -
day injuries and illness. The program also is expected to address mental and emotional health of employees
and follows the recommendations of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the
National Fire Protection Association (NFPA). The services requested are designed specifically for firefighters
and address unique health issues such as exposure to hazardous substances and occupational injury
prevention. In addition, the requested program addresses each individual with a personalized health report
and improvement plan. The requested program is supported by the employee union and endorsed by both
the International Association of Firefighters and the International Association of Fire Chiefs. This request

This improvement request is for a powerload cot lifting device for the fourth ambulance. Only one
ambulance is not equipped with this device which lifts the ambulance cot (with patient) into and out of the
vehicle. The device has been successful in reducing employee injury rates and providing safer transport of
ambulance patients. This ambulance will remain in the fleet for several more years and the powerload
device can be transferred to a new ambulance at trade-in time. This project supports the City Council goal
Vibrant Community, Healthy and Safe.

This improvement request is for the addition of patient positioning devices that work in conjunction with
automated CPR devices. The request would purchase four devices (one for each ambulance) for use during
cardiac arrest/CPR incidents. Based on the latest research and practices for patient care in cardiac arrest
events, this device provides a controlled "heads up" position of the patient during mechanical CPR
administration. The use of such devices improves patient outcomes by reducing intercrannial pressure while
increasing blood flow to the brain and vital organs. This request supports the City Council goals Vibrant
Community: Healthy and Safe.

This improvement request is for a license for the Fire Department to access the city fleet maintenance
program (Collective Fleet). This will allow the Fire Department to monitor repairs and scheduled
maintenance of Fire Department vehicles in the Public Works Fleet Maintenance system. This request
would replace paper reports and emails as the primary form of requesting repair services. The access also
allows fire personnel to preview upcoming scheduled maintenance to better direct day-to-day service
delivery and emergency vehicle availability. This project includes an annual software maintenance cost of
$500 beginning in FY 2022. This project supports the City Council goal Financially Responsible, High -

This improvement request is for a software program to schedule firefighting personnel and assist in staffing
documentation and record keeping. Selected program will integrate with the current reporting system and
dispatch program to provide automatic upload of vehicle staffing from the schedule. This provides accuracy
in reports while also reducing the report completion time. Day-to-day staffing is better organized and tracked
with improved ability to document leave and work trade events. This project includes an annual software
maintenance cost of $500 beginning in FY 2022. This request supports the City Council goal Financially

This improvement request is for installation of a mezzanine above a portion of the apparatus parking area
inside Fire Headquarters. Due to the need to maintain various supplies and spare equipment, storage space
is currently insufficient at Fire Headquarters. Fire Headquarters is land -locked and using a mezzanine would
be a cost-effective way to add storage space. The request would create an expanded metal mezzanine over
a portion of the apparatus floor allowing for storage of small items such as hazardous materials supplies,
chemical suits, firefighting foam concentrate, and spare firefighting tools. It would also expand the area
available to store fire protective clothing. Due to high ceilings, the mezzanine would allow for apparatus to
still be parked below without loss of functionality. This request supports the City Council goal Financially
Responsible, High -Performance City Organization: Sustainable, Equitable, and Effective Service Delivery.

This improvement request is for upgrade of the small SUV used by the Assistant Fire Marshal to a crew cab
pickup truck. The current vehicle has been approved for replacement in FY21. The department has
identified a need to separate soiled protective gear and investigation tools and evidence from the passenger
compartment of the vehicle, which is not possible in a small SUV. This vehicle is also used to transport the
large cases containing props for public education (hazard house and fire extinguisher prop). However, the
current small SUV is unable to hold the large transport cases holding these devices. The vehicle is also
designated for use for out-of-town travel to schools and conferences, therefore the ability to transport four
employees and their respective fire gear and luggage is desirable. This request supports the City Council
goal Vibrant Community, Healthy and Safe.

This improvement request is for adding a second drone (unmanned aerial vehicle) to the Fire Department
compliment. This request would provide a drone with the ability to operate with both a regular camera and
infrared camera simultaneously. The current unit is not capable of this, and must be returned to base to
switch out cameras. The ability to use both is ideal for night operations and hazardous materials incidents.
The flying time is improved with a new drone and a second allows for distribution of this equipment within
the city, thereby reducing deployment logistics and time. This request supports the City Council goal Vibrant
Community: Healthy and Safe.
