NEW SAFETY VESTS
The Fire Department received high-visibility safety vests that are required by Rule 23 of the Code of Federal Regulations and approved by the American National Standards Institute.
Under the new law, all workers within the right-of-way of a federal-aid highway, who are exposed either to traffic or to construction equipment within the work area, are required to wear this high-visibility safety apparel.
Fire Suppression, Code Enforcement, and Fire Prevention staff are now required to wear these new vests routinely on and around city streets.
However, when Firefighters are engaged in direct fire attack operations, extrication operations, and hazardous materials incidents, they will not be required to wear the high-visibility safety apparel.
The fire department received the vests this past week.
APRIL FOOLS JOKE
Acting Chief Keith Jones, Deputy Chief Chris Weiske, Lieutenant Steve Lux, and records supervisor Susan Hackley surprised all on-duty Police Department staff with a breakfast of pancakes, sausage, and orange juice on April Fool's Day.
Since it was April 1, the food was eyed warily at first; however, they were assured that the breakfast was safe to eat and was in appreciation of their hard work and dedication to the department.
Plus, it gave management an excuse to try out the new kitchen.
Later in the day, the swing-shift Officers were treated to a lunch of hot dogs and chips. Weekend-shift employees will be treated to a similar event in the near future.
TREE MAINTENANCE
West Coast Arborists, the contractor retained by the city to perform tree-maintenance services, completed the trimming of trees in grid area 4 this week.
Thea area is bounded by Arrow Highway to the north, Benson Avenue to the east, Kingsley Street to the south, and Central Avenue to the east.
Next, WCA will begin trimmng trees at Alma Hofman Park and the Civic Center in preparation for the Family Fun Festival on June 6.
Trimming occured April 3 and 4, and if necessary on April 10.
