And
they
can't
be
resolved
here,
but
this
issue
I
asked
about
I,
didn't
ask
a
question
about
the
ward
post
cards
for
the
ward
meeting.
I
asked
a
question
when
it
said
that
there
was
a
postcard
that
went
out
to
new
residents.
I
asked
could
I
see
a
an
example
of
that
postcard
and
I
was
referred
to
some
website.
I
could
have
looked
that
up
myself.
I
didn't
have
time
so
I'd
like
to
see
a
copy
of
that
and,
second
of
all,
the
convoluted
way
that
we
determine
who
gets
one
of
those
new
residents.
A
D
Chair
members
of
the
committee
I
can
answer
that
question
so
they're
two
separate
charges,
one
is
for
the
board
meeting
post
card,
the
others
for
the
new
resident
we've
been,
we've
been
sending
out
the
new
resident
post
card
for
three
or
four
years
now.
The
list
of
addresses
that
we
receive
is
procured
from
the
post
office
by
the
vendor
and
the
address
is
on.
It
include
anybody.
That's
moved
from
outside
of
a
six
or
201
or
six
Oh
202
area
code
into
that
area
code.
D
So
if
your
area
code
was
anything
other
than
an
Evanston
area
code-
and
you
are
moving
into
an
Evanston
area
code
via
a
post
office,
mail
delivery
system,
then
you
be
on
the
list
and
then
you
get
the
padieu
postcard
and
then,
when
we,
when
the
time
period,
passes
three
months
six
months,
it's
usually
we
try
to
send
these
quarterly.
Let
me
procure
a
new
list
based
on
the
date
of
the
last
mailing.
D
D
C
A
E
Members
of
APW,
my
name,
is
Laura
Biggs
I'm,
the
acting
public
works
director
tonight,
so
the
solid
waste
contract
with
our
provider
actually
has
this
study
as
part
of
it.
But
it's
a
separate
line
items.
So
that's
why
it
was
built
separately
and
what
it
involves.
Is
they
actually
look
at
our
waste
stream
over
a
short
period
of
time
that
is
collected
and
goes
to
swank
and
it
Swank
they
sort
it
in
two
different
types
of
ways
to
determine
if
what's
in
the
waste
stream
is
appropriate.
E
So,
for
example,
if
they
sort
it
and
they
find
a
lot
of
electronics
are
being
disposed
of
when
they're
supposed
to
be
pulled
out
and
recycled.
That's
a
piece
of
information
that
the
city
of
Evanston
can
you
to
direct
our
public
education
efforts
and
try
to
improve
the
way
that
we
manage
our
solid
waste.
So
there's
this
initial
study
and
then
I
believe
quarterly.
There
will
be
just
sort
of
a
visual
recount,
not
a
detailed
sorting
that
happens
at
swank.
The
process
was
overseen
by
our
sustainability
manager,
but
the.
A
A
E
A
Be
interesting
to
do
all
right,
okay,
so
thank
you
very
much
all
right,
so
we
had
a
motion
and
a
second
all,
those
in
favor
of
approving
the
bills.
Three
million
three
hundred
sixty
six
thousand
four
hundred
eighty
seven
dollars,
fifty
nine
cents
say
yeah
all
right.
Any
opposed
next
I'll
read
that
one
is
one-year
contract
renewal
with
Sam
Goss
and
associates
for
handyman
services
in
the
this
is
the
final
year
of
a
three-year
agreement
not
to
exceed
thirty
five
thousand
dollars
for
labor
and
materials.
All
those
in
about.
Second,
second,.
F
F
For
staff
recommend
City
Council
authorized
the
city

execute
a
contract

the
survey
benchmark,

engineering
PC
in

of
forty
nine
thousand
four
hundred
forty
seven
dollars
and
42
cents.
This
will
verify
the
accuracy
of
the
existing
eighteen
survey
monuments
and
to
install
an
additional
twenty
monuments
around
the
city.
The
monuments
are
utilized
by

development
developers,
engineers
and
city
staff
to
design
and
construct
projects
ranging
from
roadway
improvements
to
commercial
development.

cost
is
available
in
the
water
fund,
from
delays
and
other
projects,
specifically
the
clear,
well
nine
replacement
project,
and
this
is
for
action.
Second,.
F
H
H
Alright
discuss
the
ball.
That's
fine!
The
first
thing
I
have
about
a
nine,
is
the
self
standpipe?
That's
concern
to
me
is
you're
taking
money
from
the
clear,
well
project
which
hasn't
even
started
yet,
and
so
is
that's
really
like
a
pork
funders.
I
can
use
that
because
it
hasn't
started
and
that's
not
acceptable
really,
because
that
money
should
be
held
and
not
use.
This
money
should
be
for
this
and
not
that
and
I
think
that's
a
problem.
That's
a
budgetary
issue
and
really
you're
basically
has
you
know
like
the
transfer
station
fees.
H
Sorry,
a
fifteen
I'm,
an
open.
The
only
thing
I
have
to
really
say
about
that
is.
It
appears
to
me.
The
city
knew
about
these
problems.
Months
before
it
had
told
the
council-
and
the
troubling
thing
here
to
me-
is
the
loss
of
the
fifty
thousand
dollars
because
of
staff
not
doing
anything,
and
this
has
to
be
recovered.
I
feel
that
we
need
to
basically
get
our
money
back,
because
we
are
so
have
so
many
issues
with
money.
H
We
shouldn't
be
moving
on
to
do
anything
else
until
we
settle
this
on
that
item
and
then
on
Howard
Street.
Here
again,
where
money
there's
that's
a
seventeen,
it
sounds
like
we're:
adding
more
money
to
a
contract,
yet
we're
not
getting
compensated
for
it.
We're
not
getting
more
money
in
return.
So
that's
a
seventeen
on
Howard
Street,
seven,
twenty
seven.
We
should
be
demanding
that
we
get
a
increase
in
the
contract
and
basically
the
the
lease
price
on
that.
H
H
It
more
counsel,
but
at
the
seventh
and
sixth
Ward
meeting
the
city
manager
made
a
comment
that
the
firefighters
pension
costs
we're
higher
than
their
salaries
on
a
daily
basis
and
I
got
up
and
told
them
that
that
isn't
true,
I'm
very
concerned
about
how
certain
rumors
have
been
spread
about
some
of
these
different
things
in
the
budget
and
I
have
issues
on
some
other
things.
I'll
dress
it
counsel,
but
we
need
to
be
factual
when
we
state
things
about
cutting
things
and
I
corrected
them
at
the
time.
Thank
you.
A
A
H
C
C
Madam
Chad,
like
to
move
item
812
resolution,
39
R,
18
local
agency
agreement
with
the
Illinois
Department
of
Transportation
for
Central
Street,
Bridge,
phase
phase,
2
engineering,
that's
in
the
dollar
amount
of
five
hundred
and
nineteen
dollars,
five
hundred
and
twelve
of
which
the
415
and
sixty
four
will
be
funded
through
a
federal
grant
from
the
surface
transportation
program
and
the
other
20%
comes
from
our
CIP
budget.
Second,.
F
A
F
Police
department
staff
recommend
City
Council,
adopt
resolution
44
r18
authorizing
the
city
manager
to
approve
an
amendment
for
the
northern
Illinois
police
alarm
system.
Ni
pas
is
a
mutual,
a
group
that
provides
the
Evanston
Police
Department
with
emergency
services,
mobile
field
force
capability
and
large
contingent
of
bicycle
officers
trained
for
crowd
control.
It's
for
action.
A
A
G
A
A
D
Alderman
Fleming
could
not
be
denied
and
she
prepared
the
statement
which
I'm
going
to
read
for
her
I
do
not
agree
with
the
proposed
RFP
timeline
provided
in
tonight's
packet
in
this
nine
to
ten
month
process.
Not
only
prolongs
our
ability
to
liquidate
the
building
and
use
the
funds
for
things
like
designated
capital
improvements,
debt
repayment
or
pension
payments.
I
do
not
support
the
city
going
into
another
lease
agreement,
given
the
ineffective
execution
of
the
current
lease
and
the
previous
lease
with
the
Art
Center.
D
A
I
for
one
would
like
to
address
those
comments.
First
of
all,
at
least
with
one
person,
has
absolutely
nothing
to
do
with
the
lease
with
another
person,
and
you
know
if
you
were
going
to
use
at
least
with
somebody
like
smiley
Brothers,
who
is
a
very
substantial
user
in
our
community
and
a
contributor.
A
You
know
you
would
certainly
consider
them
a
viable
tenant
so
and
and
the
Arts
Center
was
in
the
Harley
Clark
mansion
for
years.
So
that
argument
is
is
rather
illogical.
Quite
frankly,
so
I
I
would
argue
that
we
leave
this
open
if
we
are
going
to
go
with
an
RFP
one
of
the
problems
with
putting
this
up
for
sale
right
off,
the
bat
is
the
fact
we
lose
control
right
up
front,
I'm,
not
saying
that
we
shouldn't
do
a
lease
to
own.
A
The
the
buyer
at
the
outset
could
default
on
the
mortgage
and
it
could
go
into
foreclosure.
All
sorts
of
things
could
happen.
I
would
rather
see
us
watch
how
responsible
the
the
user
is
for
a
couple
of
years
like
a
five
year
lease
to
own
and
that
that's
what
I
would
do
I
think
this
knee-jerk
reaction
of,
let's
unload
all
our
property,
so
that
we
can,
you
know,
get
the
money
and
spend
it
on
other
needs
is
not
the
most
responsible
reaction
at
this
point.
Also,
this
building
is
like
a
bomb
shelter.
A
It's
not
costing
us
anything
really
to
maintain
other
than
to
make
sure
the
water
pipes.
Don't
freeze.
It's
not!
You
know
it's
not
leaking
it's
it.
It
just
sits
there.
So
it's
not
like
a
so-called
landmark
or
a
decorative
property.
It's
it's
not
something
that
we
have
to
tinker
with
constantly
it's
a
brick
box,
and
so
it's
not
and
and
right
now,
while
we're
not
in
it,
we
have
we're
using
it.
F
C
C
B
Evening,
Johanna,
liner,
communi
bellman
tractor
the
lease
were
endeavoured
for
us
to
put
the
property
back
on
the
tax
rolls
it's
currently
not
it's
currently
exempt,
because
it's
a
city
property
we
can
go
to
the
county
once
a
year.
It's
in
about
October
there's
a
date
of
the
Assessors
website
where
we
can
add
the
property
back
on.
We
would
we
were.
We
did
not
do
that,
because
smiley
brothers
never
finalized
their
site
plan
and
if
you
recall
from
when
we
did
this
a
written
when
we
went
through
this
process
originally
there
was
there.
B
The
property
is
currently
divided,
but
it
wasn't
divided
in
a
way
that
was
gonna
work
for
smiley
and
for
our
we
were
gonna,
do
a
parking
lot
next
to
it,
so
they
needed
to
finalize
their
site
plan.
We
would
then
finalize
our
parking
lot
plans
and
then
return
for
a
subdivision
of
those
properties.
So
so
we
only
have
a
small
window
base.
There
extension
period
inspection
period
went
until
last
July
and
from
that
point
we
were
on
a
pretty
aggressive
timeline
to
get
the
property
subdivided
surveyed
subdivided
and
to
the
county
by
October.
B
So
that
did
not
happen,
but
that
also
that
they
wouldn't
have
started
building.
So
there
wouldn't
have
been
much
to
assess
for
taxes
at
that
point
either.
So
it
was.
We
had
planned
that
that
would
be
an
activity
for
this
year
versus
last
year,
so
our
projections
had
been
that
there
would
be
taxes
generated
there
and
that
they
would
have
paid
him,
but
that
the
property
was
not
added
back
to
the
tax
rolls
because
we
had
not
finalized
the
actual
site.
That
would
have
been
taxable.
Would
you
say
we
blew
it
more
or
less
I?
B
Don't
think
we
blew
it.
We
just
our
timeline
got
compressed
because
we
didn't
have
the
time
because
of
that
one
window
opening
with
the
county.
So
we
just
didn't
there.
Their
timeline
was
compressed
ours,
Eliska
press.
We
would
have
had
to
come
back
to
Council
that
it
would
have
occurred
somewhere,
probably
August
September
had
they
met
there,
their
milestones
for
completing
their
project,
insight
plan.
B
We
we
had
a
meeting
with
them,
wait
on
Friday,
we
presented
all
the
pieces
of
of
the
lease
and
our
position
that
we
have
an
enforceable
lease
and
they
presented
their
position
and
we're
going
to
regroup,
hopefully
this
week
on
on
finalizing
some
of
the
pieces
of
that.
But
there
was
a
personal
matter
in
the
smileys
family
and
they're
back
in
Chicago
now
ready
to
address
this.
Can.
B
G
A
G
B
That
that's
a
good
question
day.
I
I
would
seek
the
direction
from
the
council
and
this
commit
committee
to
determine.
If
we
want
to
just
ask
for
proposals
or
if
you
want
to
go
through
the
qualifications,
you
tell
us
you're
qualified
operator
and
then
you
can
submit
a
proposal.
The
that's
the
way
this
is
currently
set
up,
that
you
show
us
the
air,
a
qualified
operator
of
something
that
fits
within
the
goals
of
this
property.
And
then
we
ask
for
a
proposal
after
that,
or
we
just
ask
for
people
that
we
can
position.
B
A
User
right,
how
about
I'm,
given
given
what
you've
heard
today,
could
you
put
something
together?
That
is
a
little
looser
than
taking
like
I,
do
agree
with
alderman
Simmons
that
10
to
11
months,
and
we
have
certain
requirements
for
public
property,
and
then
we
have
to
advertise
it.
You
know
that
there's
not
much.
We
can
do
about
that,
but
we
could
zero
in
on
this
a
little
more
well.
B
A
A

Being
asked
to
recommend
adoption
of
this
resolution,
which
authorizes
the
manager
to
amend
the
five-year
lease
agreement
with
hip
circle,
empowerment
center,
located
at
the
city-owned
property
at
727,
Howard
Street,
to
account
for
additional
expense
related
to
construction
of
tenant
improvement,
improvement,
I,
move
approval.
Second,
second,
okay,
I
think
Paul's,
alma
Zak
is
here
to
maybe
address
some
of
the
issues.
Alderman
Sephardim
I.
A
C
I
I
The
so
let
me
see
if
I
can
simplify
this
specifically
for
it.
From
the
city's
vanilla
box
perspective,
the
costs
of
there
was
an
electrical
box
relocation
and
some
88
work
required
on
the
bathroom
build-out
that
came
about
after
the
the
spay.
The
plans
were
reviewed
by
our
plant
inspectors.
That
didn't
happen
before
because
that,
but
that
was
following
that
the
kind
of
natural
progress
of
how
a
project
is
reviewed
and,
secondly,
there's
a
new
contract
around
the
case,
who's
kind
of
reviewed,
the
entire
build-out
requirement,
and
it's
actually
a
little
bit
more
money
overall.
I
D
I
I
J
I
I
know
because
the
trouble
is
we
have
this
legislative
process
so
in
order
to
move
forward
with
this
project,
hip
circle
needed
to
come
to
the
City
Council
to
get
approval
to
lease
the
space,
but
they
didn't
want
to
spend
the
money
to
do
the
plans
for
this
space
until
after
they
knew
they
had
the
lease.
So
there's
a
chicken
and
egg
thing,
the
fifteen
thousand
dollar
difference
is
not
insignificant,
but
overall
in
a
larger
project.
That's
that's
not
unheard
of,
but
had
we.
G
K
My
name
is
Malik
Turley
and
I'm.
The
executive
director
of
hip
circle
empowerment
center,
our
costs.
We
are
doing
some
of
the
work
ourselves
because
we
can't
afford
all
of
the
increase
in
cost,
so
the
additional
that
we
are
spending
above
the
loan
that
we
have
is
another
11,000
and
then
we
are
working
to
offset
the
rest
of
the
increase.
A.
K
A
F
C
C
A
C
G
A
C
A
A
Actually
I'd
like
to
make
it
any
introduction,
action
and
suspensions
rules
and
ordinance,
7300
18,
all
in
favor,
say
aye
any
opposed.
Okay,
ordinance,
7400
18
is
decreasing.
The
number
of
Class
C
liquor
licenses
for
Class
C
liquor
license
for
cheesie's
Pub
&
grub
LLC
located
at
6:22
Davis.
This
decreases
the
number
of
C
licenses
from
25
to
24,
due
to
the
closure
of
cheesie's
pub
staff,
is
asking
that
we
move
introduction,
suspend
the
rules
and
take
action
this
evening.
I,
therefore
move
that
second.
F
A
J
Madam
chair
members
of
the
committee
good
evening
good
evening,
Fire
Chief
Brian
Scott
I've,
been
asked
to
present
to
you
this
evening
for
your
consideration,
a
brief
overview
of
the
fire
department,
staffing
and
service
delivery,
along
with
some
budgetary
considerations
for
the
department
relative
to
the
fiscal
year.
2019,
the
Evanston
fire
department
is
an
All
Hazards
department,
comprised
of
107
sworn
members
that
are
currently
responding
to
over
10,000
calls
of
year
annually.
J
J
If
you
look
to
the
right
to
the
slide,
you'll
see
a
GIS
response
time
analysis
map
that
shows
our
current
staffing
model,
which
allows
for
effective
fire,
EMS
and
rescue
coverage
in
virtually
every
area
of
the
city.
In
about
three
minutes
or
less
you've
heard
me
say
many
times
that
responding
quickly
helps
save
lives.
It
helps
reduce
injuries
and
minimize
property
damage
and
in
fact
it's
probably
the
biggest
reason
why
we're
able
to
save
over
98%
of
property.
That's
impacted
by
fire.
It's
also
very
important
with
respect
to
emergency
medical
services.
J
In
fact,
our
resource
deployment
model
is
very
unique
because
not
only
are
our
ambulances
equipped
life
support
equipment
in
paramedics,
but
so
is
every
single
frontline
piece
of
fire
apparatus
which
allows
us
quick
response
times
with
the
properly
trained
into
quick
people
to
handle
the
most
acute
medical
emergencies
and
traumatic
injuries.
I
think
it's
particularly
important-
and
you
heard
me
say
this
before
with
cardiac
care.
J
The
American
Heart
Association
tells
us
that
it's
critically
important
to
get
to
people
in
cardiac
arrest
within
the
fuse,
the
first
few
minutes
of
an
arrest
and
we're
able
to
do
that.
Every
minute.
The
delay
impacts
that
survivability
by
10
percent.
It's
another
important
consideration
with
the
service
delivery
model
is
the
fact
that
at
a
minimum,
forty
percent
of
our
calls
for
service
happen
simultaneously
throughout
the
city
and
in
some
months
it's
over
70
percent.
J
So
there's
a
lot
of
inherent
mutual
support
and
reliance
with
the
overall
responding
emergency
response
force
that
allows
companies
from
other
areas
to
take
over
calls
of
service
of
a
particular
engine
or
station
is
on
a
run.
The
staffing
model
you
see
before
you
has
been
in
effect
in
a
place
effectively
over
the
last
35
years
and
during
that
time,
where
calls
for
service
have
increased
by
71
percent.
Now
the
department
has
always
successfully
met
that
challenge
of
increased
service
demand,
and
we
will
continue
to
do
so,
as
we
expect.
J
J
J
J
A
J
When
evaluating
this
response,
model,
I
looked
at
two
objective
sources:
the
first
is
National
Fire
Protection
Association
standard
1710
1710
is
the
current
accepted
national
standard
for
minimum
staffing
response
time
requirements
relatively
organization
and
deployment
of
a
career,
Fire
Department
like
Evanston.
Now
the
purpose
of
this
standard
is
to
scientific
research
and
analysis,
offer
the
Syriac
the
necessary
criteria
for
us
to
evaluate
the
efficiency
and
effectiveness
of
our
department
and
protecting
the
citizens
of
Evanston,
as
well
as
protecting
the
occupational
safety
and
health
of
the
firefighters
and
paramedics.
J
Now
relative
to
this
standard,
you'll
see
that
our
response,
time
of
3
minutes
and
15
seconds
meets
the
four
minutes
standard
for
all
fire
in
EMS,
also
with
respect
to
what
we
call
low
hazard,
occupancies
single
family
homes,
less
than
two
thousand
square
feet.
We
also
meet
that
standard
with
our
daily
staffing
of
26.
J
There
are
some
areas
we
don't
meet
the
standard.
However,
those
would
include
our
company
level
staffing,
which
is
currently
at
three,
but
the
standard
would
require
four
four
engine
and
truck
companies,
as
well
as
a
initial
alarm
deployment
for
medium
and
high
hazard,
occupancies
examples
of
a
medium
hazard
occupancy
would
be
a
commercial
occupancy,
such
as
a
store
business
or
an
apartment,
building,
high
hazards
or
high-rise
buildings,
in
which
the
standard
requires
over
forty
three
firefighters
to
respond
on
the
initial
alarm,
a
second
evaluation
can
be
made
through
comparisons
with
similar
departments
in
similar
communities.
J
You'll
know,
it's
said
that
Evanston's
daily
staffing
per
1000
people
in
population
is
0.35,
which
puts
us
right
within
the
average
of
0.36
and
again
as
a
testament
tort
deployment
is
staffing
model
you'll
see
that,
despite
the
fact
we
have
similar
staffing,
our
response
times
in
comparison
to
these
communities
is
30%.
Faster
I
said
also
mention
that
engine
and
truck
companies
within
these
communities
are
all
staffed
with
three
members.
J
Each
now
relative
to
the
2019
budget
I
have
three
general
areas
that
you
could
consider
for
budgetary
savings,
along
with
some
brief
comments
on
the
potential
impact.
The
first
could
would
be
to
consider
elimination
of
one
or
more
of
our
community
outreach
and
engagement
programs.
These
would
include
assistance,
fire
academy,
the
fire
Explorer
program,
our
public
cpr
classes.
They
have
incent
Township,
Public,
Safety
Program
or
our
Community
Emergency,
Response,
Team
or
certain
of
these
programs
are
very
effective,
very
successful.
J
They
impact
about
400
people
in
the
community
every
year
because
they
advance
our
commitment
towards
public
education,
diversity,
community
preparedness
and
Public
Safety.
A
second
option
you
could
share
would
be
to
continue
holding
some
full-time
vacancies
that
we
have
in
the
department,
so
as
part
of
the
2018
budget
we've
held
for
full-time
vacancies
and
we
can
continue
those
into
2019
positive
piece
of
that
particular
option
would
be
is
that
it
maintains
our
daily
staffing
minimum,
but
on
the
negative
side,
our
overtime
increases
as
a
result
of
the
additional
vacancies.
C
C
One
of
the
things
that
I
appreciate
the
most
about
your
leadership
is
our
previous
conversations
and
your
commitment
to
continue
in
the
footsteps
of
our
former
fire
chief
Gregg,
Kleinberg
and
I
do
feel
that
that
is
a
very
important
program
as
well.
I
feel
strongly
that
our
Police
and
Fire
Department
should
mirror
and
match
the
demographics
of
our
community
and
I.
Think
that
we
could,
you
know,
continue
to
do
better
in
that
area.
J
C
So
roughly
give
or
take
the
cost
of
one
employee
and
then
I
think
it
was
part
of
last
year's
budget
discussion
or
when
you
gave
the
full
report.
You
talked
about
holding
those
full-time
positions
in
utilizing
more
staff
over
time
and
that
that
was
one
of
your
your
strategies
coming
into
the
budget
season,
and
it
is
something
that,
from
what
you
shared,
your
staff
was
in
favor
of
that
correct.
That.
J
C
I
mean
I
was
supportive
of
it
back
then,
and
I'm
still
supportive,
but
I'm.
Just
surprised
that
you
didn't
include
some
type
of
numbers
to
go
along
with
this
presentation.
So
I
hope
that
at
some
point
refresh
my
memory
or
the
council's
memories.
Just
so,
we
understand
the
budget
impact
of
what
you're
proposing
absolutely
thank
you
alderman.
F
F
Then
the
about
how
many
are
using
our
CPR
classes
and
are
we
providing
them
for
compliance
from
for
some
other
institutions,
or
is
it
mostly
folks
that
are
coming
for
like
enrichment,
personal
enrichment
and
have
we
looked
at
using
other
organizations,
for
example
like
the
Red
Cross
or
some
other,
to
provide
that
service
to
the
community,
or
is
that
responsible
to
do
it
that
way?
Well,.
J
A
G
J
I
can
provide
that
information
yes,
I
mean
generally
is
gonna,
be
you
know
we
tried
it.
We
have
a
very
fortunate.
We
have
two
level
1
hospitals
within
the
city,
so
Jami
when
calls
are
occurring
on
the
north
end
of
the
city,
they're
going
to
be
going
to
Evanston,
Hospital
and
the
south
and
they'll
go
to
Saint
Francis.
So
I
can
say
with
a
certainty
of
confidence
right
now
that
those
response
times
are
going
to
be
four
minutes
and
less
from
from
the
from
the
incident
scene
to
the
hospitals.
So.
G
J
F
J
Still
a
little
bit
early
I
know
that
we've
had
a
number
of
explorer
graduates
challenge
the
city
of
Evanston
firefighter
exam.
We've
had
a
few
of
those
actually
placed
on
the
final
eligibility
list,
including
our
last
list,
and
the
preference
points
definitely
helped.
And
again,
the
most
important
are
one
of
the
most
important
things
about
the
fire
Explorer
program
is
it's
a
way
to
engage
the
youth
of
the
community
to
kind
of
have
them
learn
about
the
vocation
of
the
fire
service
in
EMS
and
our
Explorer
program?
J
Much
better
reflects
the
diversity
of
Evanston,
and
so,
if
the
more
people
we
can
pull
from
that
program,
I
think
better
off
will
be
for
the
long
run
in
terms
of
increasing
the
diversity
of
the
department,
which
is
Oliver.
Braithwaite
alluded
to
has
been
a
big
priority
for
chief
Cliver
and
for
myself.
That's.
H
A
Thing
I
know
in
past
budget
discussions
with
the
police
department
to
add
one
police
officer
to
every
shift.
It
requires
I
think
hiring
on
seven
people
because
of
vacations
and
I
think
it
came
to
seven
or
six
remember
that
discussion,
because
there
are
three
shifts,
so
you
have
to
have
one
free
shift
and
then
there's
vacations
and
sick
time.
Maybe
it
was
five,
but
you
have
to
have
more
than
three
in
order
to
add
one
officer
for
each.
