III. Citizen Comment: SEE ADDENDUM I FOR PRESENTATION. Michelle McCormick of 11 Bliss Place stated that her home was over 100 years old with a fieldstone foundation and that she had become increasingly concerned with torrential rains on her road. Michelle McCormick explained that Bliss Place is a dead end street with full sewer drains on either end of the sidewalk and discussed the other sewer drains in the area which are concentrated towards her home and where water pools. Michelle McCormick continued that when this type of flooding occurred the homes on the street could not be accessed properly and that the neighbors tried to maintain clearing the drains but the effort seemed futile. Michelle McCormick stated that on November 21, 2020 the drains were blocked so severely that the flood waters reached Washington Street and covered a majority of her driveway. Michelle McCormick continued that the worst flooding had occurred on October 17, 2019 when two feet of water accumulated in her basement causing damage on multiple floors and to her second floor radiator. Michelle McCormick stated during this time the fire department told her they could not begin to pump out the water in her basement due to the water level on the road and that the event was not covered by insurance as they were advised flood insurance was not necessary when purchasing the home as it was not in a flood zone. Michelle McCormick further detailed the damage done to her home and losses incurred. Michelle McCormick stated the neighbors try to actively combat the blocked drains during heavy rainfall but that it was stressful to have to constantly worry about them. Michelle McCormick stated that larger drains or another type of solution was needed as the current design was not proper for the road and the neighbors had their fill of calling the police and public works. Alderman Bettencourt asked Michelle McCormick what the result had been from her calls to public works. Michelle McCormick responded that she and multiple neighbors were told they were working on the situation. Alderman DeLucia stated based on comment and pictures presented it appeared as though public works had been on sight but had issues addressing the situation when the flooding occurred. Alderman DeLucia stated he would put the issue on the Monday Public Works Meeting agenda to discuss with the city engineer in an effort to find a permanent solution for evacuating the water. Beryl Fishbone of 19 Bliss Place discussed the history of flooding in the area and the current drainage situation. Beryl Fishbone stated that the neighbors were addressing the Public Safety Committee as they had not felt as though they were getting a response from public works and while they understood certain delays a solution needed to be found. Beryl Fishbone further discussed the topography of the area and contributing factors to the flooding. Public comment was closed at 7:19 PM. IV. Unfinished Business: a. COVID-19 Update: City Manager John Salomone reported that city hall had returned to normal operations with all departments operating on their regular schedules. City Manager Salomone stated that the city did continue to meet with the EMS4 Emergency Region team but mainly discussed the after effects of the virus opposed to the immediate impact. City Manager Salomone reported he had also been meeting with various departments upon previewing the American Recovery Plan which included funding for those affected by the COVID virus. Alderman Bettencourt asked if the city manager was still receiving weekly reports from public health to which he responded that the governor had discontinued the reports. V. New Business: a. Department and Agency Updates: SEE ADDENDUM III FOR MONTHLY STATISTICAL REPORTS i. NPU Update: Eric McDermott reported that NPU was in the  third phase of its return to work plan and that currently both reservoirs were at full pond. Eric McDermott added that both the Shetucket and Yantic rivers had been high the past week with Yantic reaching flood stage that past Friday and that both rivers remained at 102 feet above level. Eric McDermott reported that the water main feeding the east side was still shut down as NPU had just reached an agreement with the railroad in the past week to make the repairs with the work now being scheduled for some time between midnight August 19th and Sunday August 22nd, per the request of the railroad who also requested that the entire road be shut down beginning at midnight on the 19th. Eric McDermott stated that NPU was working with CLGA Engineers and all coordinate partners to determine a detour plan and reminded that once the repair is complete it would be another three days to complete bacteria testing before service can be restored to the line which would be approximately August 25th. Eric McDermott reported that annual hydrant flushing was ongoing and currently in the area of Broad Street. Alderman DeLucia asked if once the main repair was complete if water would be immediately available for fire suppression to which Eric McDermott responded he would find out. Alderman DeLucia asked what the third phase of NPU’s return to work plan consisted of to which Eric McDermott responded that the majority of the operations center staff was back in the office and on the road and that the customer service center was open for normal hours with in-home services resumed. Eric McDermott continued that some employees continued to partially working from home but that all staff would transition back to in-person full-time in September and that to his knowledge no staff members were currently working full-time from home. ii. American Ambulance: Robert Rautio reported 765 emergency calls in the past month which was above par for previous years averages, not including 2020. Robert Rautio reported no current COVID impacts and that AA continued to monitor impacts in compliance with OSHA directives. Alderman DeLucia asked what the severity of the calls were to which Robert Rautio responded the calls were of average severity and back to the status they had been prior to the start of COVID. iii. Police Department Update: Lieutenant John Perry reported 3,336 calls for service in the past month including 75 arrests and 151 motor vehicle accidents which was a 10% increase from the past few years averages. Lieutenant Perry stated an alarming aspect to the MVA was the severity and injuries involved which appear to be due to speeding and carelessness. Lieutenant Perry reported 197 alarms in the city, three shots-fired calls and 11 missing persons cases, all whom, were found, Alderman Bettencourt asked if there were any resolutions to the shots-fire calls to which Lieutenant Perry responded that that June calls were still under investigation but that there appeared to be a correlation between gang activity in Norwich and New London. Lieutenant Perry announced that Sergeant Rankin had been awarded the NAACP Juneteenth Award for his amazing community work and noted the chief’s high commitment to community policing. Lieutenant Perry stated that the community policing unit hosted a very successful gun buy-back day where 101 guns  were purchased back from city residents. Alderman Bettencourt asked if in regards to the motor vehicle accidents if any certain areas ranked higher in terms of severity to which Lieutenant Perry responded that the issue was not isolated to one area and that NPD had witnessed accidents in uncommon areas. Lieutenant Perry stated that distracted driving appeared to have a rise post- pandemic and that statistics for the crashes typically were not available until a month or two after the accident but that NPD did examine them once received. Alderman DeLucia stated he would like to see more concrete accident cause data trust impressions as well as department-wide data and would follow up with the chief as he was becoming increasingly concerned with the amount of traffic violations he personally witnessed while commuting. Alderman DeLucia thanked Lieutenant Perry and Chief Patrick Daley for their work in developing the community policing unit and Sergeant Rankin for his current efforts. Alderman DeLucia added that he attended the recent Greenville community watch meeting and took down a list of concerns that citizens wished to communicate which he would distribute accordingly. Lieutenant Perry reported that alongside the fire chiefs NPD was able to work the CAD RMS future system and develop a budgetary pricing system for transferring fire departments city-wide to the state radio system based on the needs of the various departments. Lieutenant Perry continued that NPD transferred to a new Motorola radio system in June 2020 which was a monumental change in regards to safety and communication. Lieutenant Perry stated that now that the new radio infrastructure was in place it was the best time to transfer the fire departments off of the low band system. Lieutenant Perry discussed budget numbers in regards to getting the system running for the fire departments. iv. Emergency Management Update: Chief Tracy Montoya reported that electrical and other computer wiring had been completed for the secondary EOC at headquarters. Chief Montoya stated that Region 4 ESF-6 returned the Red Cross shelter kits that were collected for upgrades and maintenance the past month and that the containerized foam was removed from the EM garage on McKinley Avenue by Clean Harbors. Chief Montoya stated that EOC was prepared for storm Elsa but was not activated. v. Fire Department Updates: Alderman DeLucia read into the record a report from City Manager John Salomone in regards to the ongoing chiefs meetings. SEE ADDENDUM II. 1. Norwich: Chief Montoya reported significant responses for the month with an entrapment MVA at Burnham Square and a three-car rollover on Boswell Avenue both occurring on June 22nd, another MVA with a broken utility pole and a structure fire at 4 Tyler Avenue on the 24th. Chief Montoya reported the replacement of Squad A as a critical need and stated he submitted an AFG request for its replacement. Chief Montoya stated the radio survey was completed and NFD had been working  with NPD on researching a system upgrade to the statewide system. Chief Montoya stated the fire code clerk position had closed with hopes to fill the vacancy in August from one of the 89 qualified applications received. Chief Montoya stated the NFD facilities remained closed to the public but would be opening up for meetings with fellow agencies. Chief Montoya stated the headquarters parking lot project was completed in the last month and that the ongoing chiefs meetings were going well. Chief Montoya stated the fire marshals had been very busy due to short staff, and increase in fire calls and the begin of fireworks season. Chief Montoya discussed the ongoing emergency reporting issues and stated they were working to resolve them. Alderman Bettencourt asked in regards to the fire marshal how NFD was keeping up with permits, plan reviews and things of that nature. Chief Montoya responded that the department prioritizes statutory needs first such as plan reviews which have a deadline. 2. Taftville: Chief Tim Jencks reported a busy month and that during the heavy rainfalls members visited local homeless camps to encourage them to evacuate for their safety. Chief Jencks reported that mutual aid was provided to Norwich partners and that training was ongoing. Chief Jencks stated he had been attending the chiefs meeting and that Engine 22 was out of service for a few days with a blown coolant transmission line which fleet maintenance was able to restore. Chief Jencks stated Taftville was working with the city manager to get a station security camera which would be tied into the city dispatch center and aimed at the Taftville little league field. Chief Jencks stated that Taftville resumed its involvement with the juvenile review board after a pause from COVID and that they had sent representees to the emergency reporting training. Chief Jencks stated that the house siren was out of service and that Taftville was currently waiting for NPU to install a secondary pole to move forward with the parking lot light pole project. Chief Jencks reported the finishing of the station parking lot as a critical need. 3. Yantic: Chief Bill Eyberse reported 50 calls for the past month with 12 percent being fire calls, 6 percent accident or EMS and 16 percent false alarm calls. Chief Eyberse stated COVID supplies were accurate with no current exposures and that the firehouse continued to offer coverage for the Dodd Stadium fireworks. Chief Eyberse discussed the flooding challenges at Bliss Place and similar issues that occur along the Yantic River and between Case Street and Sholes Avenue. Chief Eyberse stated Yantic handled three recent structure fires and assisted in the Tyler Avenue and Stone Cliff fires. Chief Eyberse stated their chief engineer was working to try and handle truck inspections and vehicle maintenance as part of the emergency reporting program. Chief Eyberse stated there would be a recognition ceremony for Chief Blanchard on August 7th from 5 to 8PM. 4. Occum: Deputy Chief Scott Egert reported 20 calls for service in the past month with 23 mutual aid calls which put them at 87 calls for the year. Deputy Chief Egert stated their call volume had returned to pre-COVID numbers and had four service calls on July 6th with neighboring departments. Deputy Chief Egert reported the replacement of Engine 41 as a critical need as it had just been in the garage due to dimming lights and had its power packs replaced by the city garage but it was becoming increasingly difficult to find parts for the 1991 vehicle. Deputy Chief Egert stated they were continuing the radio projects along with the other chief and currently had 36 members. Deputy Chief Egert stated Occum was awaiting a grant from the state to complete more station projects and that training was ongoing. Deputy Chief Egert reported that one member completed their EMT license in the past month with more members pursuing the program as well. Deputy Chief Egert stated COVID supplies were good with no current exposures and that about three-quarters of their members were vaccinated. Deputy Chief Egert stated that Occum finished its budget in the red due to unexpected expenses that were discussed at last month’s meeting. 5. East Great Plain: None. 6. Laurel Hill: Chief Aaron Westervelt reported 42 current members with 93 percent vaccinated and that COVID supplies were good. Chief Westervelt stated Laurel Hill had also been involved in the radio system project and that the hose tender truck was still out of service but hopefully would be returning soon once the transmission arrived. Chief Westervelt stated that Truck 61 had been temporarily out of service that morning and that four members were currently in EMR class which should be complete in early August. Chief Westervelt reported that members were sent to the training academy in order for Laurel Hill to begin conducting their own training and discussed training options. Chief Westervelt stated that currently an in-house IT personnel handled emergency reporting and was looking at a better way of managing things. Chief Westervelt reported that the retaining wall project was complete and there had been no flooding issues since the work began. Alderman DeLucia asked how much the work for the hose tender transmission was costing the city to which Chief Westervelt responded approximately $5,000. Alderman DeLucia questioned the rationality of the expense as the truck was slated for decommission per the fire study. Chief Westervelt stated the work was discussed in length  at the chiefs meetings as the hose tender served a larger purpose than the study showed and assisted in bringing water to the east side which was currently cut off, as well as additional services. Discussion ensued on the usage of the apparatus. Chief Westervelt stated that the department had discussed a cap-off on expenses for the apparatus and that only $30,000 was spent on it initially. VI. Public Safety items for future discussion: None. VII. Next Meeting: August 18, 2021. VIII. Adjournment: Upon a motion by Alderman Bettencourt seconded by Alderman DeLucia, the meeting was adjourned at 8:26 PM. All voted in favor. The motion passed unanimously. Respectfully Submitted, Katherine Rose ADDENDUM I ADDENDUM I ADDENDUM I ADDENDUM I ADDENDUM I ADDENDUM I ADDENDUM I ADDENDUM I ADDENDUM I ADDENDUM I ADDENDUM I ADDENDUM II City Manager’s Report to Public Safety I have met with the Fire Chiefs over the past couple of months to discuss ongoing fire service issues, as well as recommendations from the McGrath Consultants Fire Study. The meetings have been well received by the Chiefs with a consensus that we are best served working together on plans to incorporate relevant priority recommendations contained in the study, as well as tackle issues not addressed in the study. Over the course of our meetings, I have tasked the Chiefs with working together to establish a list of priorities and goals as we move forward. The Chiefs have met on their own in between our meetings to further discuss priorities and issues. I am pleased to report that the atmosphere and sense of solidarity working with the Chiefs is very positive and it appears that future efforts will be productive, joint ventures as they should be. Chief Montoya has helped with coordinating meetings and providing summaries of our discussions, as well as including me on the follow up from those meetings of just the Chiefs. With the understanding that many of the recommendations from the study involve Dispatch updates to equipment and procedures which fall under the purview of Chief Daley and the Police Department, the Chiefs have set their initial set of priorities. Those priorities include: radio system upgrades (this is directly tied in with the CAD system upgrades that Norwich Dispatch is pursuing), Standardizing SOGs across all six departments, training and sharing information in the Emergency Reporting System (the reporting program utilized by the FDs), Joint training between the departments, and Automatic Aid / Mutual Aid responses. Below is a summary of action to date on some of the priorities. Radio System Upgrades: All departments have conducted field surveys of radio reception of the Statewide radio system in their respective districts. The preliminary surveys show the State system provides excellent coverage throughout the City, including good coverage in areas where the current systems fail. The Chiefs have compiled a list of anticipated equipment and service needs to make the switch to Statewide and are working with the PD and radio vendors to provide an estimate of total project cost. I appreciate the efforts of LT Perry and Chief Daley in assisting with meetings with the Radio reps and coordinating the equipment/budget estimates. Standard Operating Guidelines (SOGs): The Chiefs agree that it is best to have a single set of SOGs across the City for clarity of expectations during emergency and non-emergency operations. They are currently collecting each of their respective SOGs to share with each other. Once they have all six department SOGs, each department will designate a representative to be part of a team to review, update, and consolidate the SOGs into one City wide SOG. Emergency Reporting (ER): This is the reporting software program that the FDs use for incident reports, training reports, inventory, as well as other functions (personnel rosters, maintenance, etc). Data from ER is used to submit National Fire Incident Reporting System (NFIRS) data to the State each month. It was recognized in the McGrath Study that reporting data was not consistent. The Chiefs acknowledge this and are taking strides to better utilize the system for not only their own records, but to be inclusive of each other on calls of mutual aid or automatic aid. Two training sessions on NFIRS/ER were held at NFD HQ by the State NFIRS rep. Joint Training: It was widely discussed by various members of the Norwich Fire Service during the McGrath team’s interviews that joint training was desired and needed. The Chiefs will work together to incorporate joint training to improve on scene interaction for safe operations. Automatic Aid / Mutual Aid: This was identified in the study as an area of high priority. The Chiefs will be working together to establish an automatic aid response that will provide a combined response to certain types of calls and/or certain occupancies. They will also revisit run cards to ensure consistent formatting and resource assignment. In addition to the previously mentioned priority items, we have discussed status of apparatus, need for firefighter rehab on emergency scenes, State legislation that may benefit the local Fire Departments and other topics. I will restate that I believe the meetings have gone well and are producing good progress among the Chiefs in addressing some of the challenges facing the Fire Service. We will continue to meet as a group with our next meeting scheduled for July 28th. ADDENDUM III Norwich Police Department Public Safety Committee Report June 2021 Statistics for Month Calls for Service 4211 Incident Reports generated 313 Arrests made 150 Accidents investigated 108 Significant incidents for the month  6/20/21 1248hrs-Shots Fired incident Broadway  All four Home Invasion suspects from Laurel Hill arrested via warrant, one with assistance of US Marshals  Narcotic detectives have reported that crystal meth has been arriving in the Norwich area in increasing numbers Staffing/Hiring matters  No retirements this month  Five officers in the Police Academy Community Outreach/events attended or facilitated   RCU meetings hosted: 1st, 8th, 15th, 22nd, 29th  Community Chat (Mohegan Park): 5th  Taftville CW: 2nd  NYFL Fundraiser: 2nd  CPU Fishing Series (w/ DEEP): 3rd, 5th  Sound Community (New London): 4th  First Friday: 4th  Food Pantries: 7th, 9th, 14th, 21st, 28th, 30th  Greenville CW: 8th  Relay for Life: 12th  Ignition Speed Festival: 12th, 13th  Cape Verde Festival: 13th  Juneteenth: 18th & 19th  Uncas Field Day: 18th  Hosted “Meat and Greet” w/ YFS: 19th  West side CW: 23rd  Lake Street Cleanup: 26th  Hosted Gun Buy Back: 27th Traffic hotspots addressed  West Main Street  North Main Street  Salem Turnpike  Washington Street  Dunham Street Occum Fire Department Norwich, CT This report was generated on 7/13/2021 7:39:08 PM Incident Statistics Zone(s): All Zones | Start Date: 06/01/2021 | End Date: 06/30/2021 INCIDENT COUNT INCIDENT TYPE # INCIDENTS EMS 15 FIRE 5 TOTAL 20 TOTAL TRANSPORTS (N2 and N3) APPARATUS # of APPARATUS # of PATIENT TRANSPORTS TOTAL # of PATIENT TRANSPORTS CONTACTS TOTAL PRE-INCIDENT VALUE LOSSES $0.00 $0.00 CO CHECKS TOTAL MUTUAL AID Aid Type Total Aid Given 6 Aid Received 2 OVERLAPPING CALLS # OVERLAPPING % OVERLAPPING 2 10 LIGHTS AND SIREN - AVERAGE RESPONSE TIME (Dispatch to Arrival) Station EMS FIRE Occum FD 0:11:10 0:05:00 AVERAGE FOR ALL CALLS 0:09:25 LIGHTS AND SIREN - AVERAGE TURNOUT TIME (Dispatch to Enroute) Station EMS FIRE Occum FD 0:01:00 AVERAGE FOR ALL CALLS 0:00:51 AGENCY AVERAGE TIME ON SCENE (MM:SS) Occum Fire Department 28:50 Only Reviewed Incidents included.
