As we are closing the transition period, I just wanted to say thanks again to Annie, Brian and Chris for all the work in cleaning up the station. Well done guys.
Last month the District responded to medical calls, a structure fire (mutual aid for High Country Fire) and multiple illegal burning incidents. The fire restrictions have been lifted but we must stay vigilant. As I write this there is a 1.5-acre fire working near Dog Town Lake. Fuel moisture levels are low which can still lead to rapid fire spread. Also, we must remain vigilant for Covid 19 as we are seeing a surge in positive cases. Two of our members were exposed to a Covid positive patient last month but due to good awareness and protective equipment both members tested negative during follow up. Please make sure you have your protective equipment and know how to put it on correctly.
We are still in the repair process for Tender 8 and hoping to bring that to conclusion this week. T-8 is out of service and T-5 is confined to the District pending its repair.
The electrical work is coming to conclusion in both buildings. Please note the new exterior light on Building 2 and the electrical box in Building 1.
I am making changes to the organizational chart in an effort to streamline the organization. More on that in the future.
Thanks for coming to training on Aug 1, our next training will be on Aug 19 (6 pm).
Stay safe. JM
