PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE MINUTES City Council Chambers - Norwich City Hall 100 Broadway, Norwich, CT Wednesday August 11, 2021 7:00 PM Committee Members Present: Alderman Mark Bettencourt, Alderman William Nash and Alderman Joseph DeLucia. Committee Members Absent: None. Administration and Staff Present: Mayor Peter Nystrom, Alderwoman Stacy Gould and City Manager John Salomone, City of Norwich; Barry Ellison, Norwich Public Utilities; and Chief Patrick Daley, Norwich Police Department. Volunteer/Central Fire Departments and Others: Norwich: Chief Tracy Montoya; East Great Plain: None; Laurel Hill: Deputy Chief Peter Clark; Occum: Chief Carroll Spaulding and Deputy Chief Scott Egert; Yantic: Chief Bill Eyberse and Taftville: Chief Tim Jencks. Citizens Present: Joann Philbrick I. Call to Order and Quorum: Alderman DeLucia called the meeting to order at 7:00 PM. There was a quorum present. II. Adoption of Previous Meeting Minutes: Alderman Bettencourt made a motion to approve the July 14, 2021 meeting minutes. Alderman DeLucia seconded. All voted in favor. The motion passed unanimously. III. Citizen Comment: Joann Philbrick of 10 Elm Avenue stated she felt that the City website should be updated with available cooling centers and active COVID-19 updates that are easily accessible to the public. Joan Philbrick also discussed the detrimental wait times on mental health hotlines and issues with city hall customer service. Chief Carroll Spaulding of 44 Taftville-Occum brought to attention serious issues with dirt bikes and other ATV type vehicles on Taftville-Occum Road. Chief Spaulding stated that having police speak to the teens has not seemed to have an effect and it appears as though the teens in question have learned when shifts change. Chief Spaulding continued that they recently noticed teens making donuts in the Occum Fire Department parking lot in the middle of the night which put the department’s plans to reseal the parking lot on hold. Chief Spaulding stated that it may be time to consider confiscating equipment as lesser methods have curbed the problem. Chief Spaulding stated it would only be a matter of time until someone got hurt. Chief Timothy Jencks of 124 Providence Street had the same concerns as Chief Spaulding and added that riders were tearing up the new basketball course, riding on walking tracks, and that the issue needed to be addressed. Chief Jencks noted that the city of Hartford has a confiscation program that seemed to be effective. Chief Jencks added that citizens not cleaning up after their dogs and excessive liquor related litter were also becoming serious issues. Alderman Stacy Gould of 1 Meadow Lane stated that the Volunteer Firefighters’ Relief Fund was created as a tool to recruit and retain personnel for year round 24-7 volunteer firefighting. Alderwoman Gould continued that the Volunteer Firefighters’ Relief Fund Committee is financially conservative in making changes only twice a decade to maintain an active, well-trained, contingent personnel for all 5 volunteer fire departments and that those changes are made with input from Norwich community at large, inclusively. AlderwomanGould stated that volunteer firefighters are people willing to risk their own personal safety to serve their community and provide mutual aid to other volunteer departments, the Norwich paid department and surrounding towns. Alderwoman Gould stated that the impact that any changes will have on taxpayers would be minimal as a financial study showed that no financial change would occur for the first two years and the impact following would be two-to-three dollars per household, annually. Alderwoman Gould added that the volunteer firefighters save Norwich taxpayers millions of dollars each year and that the volunteer firefighters contribute to the fund out of their own regard. Alderwoman Gould continued that VFF Relief Fund was not a pension plan or should be compared to as such and that the fund was a stipend for decades of volunteer service. Alderwoman Gould stated that she hoped the Public Safety Committee would send a favorable recommendation of the support of the ordinance without any changes. Alderman DeLucia responded that the Volunteer Firefighters’ Relief Fund was not on the evening’s agenda. Mayor Peter Nystrom of 36 Laurel Heights questioned why the Volunteer Firefighters’ Relief Fund was not on the agenda to prevent delaying decisions any further. Alderman DeLucia responded that the ordinance was not sent to the Public Safety Committee for a recommendation or referral and that the ordinance had only been postponed by City Council to be voted on at the first September meeting. IV. Unfinished Business: a. COVID-19 Update: City Manager John Salomone reported that New London county region is in the highest range of virus incidents as was essentially the entire state and that the city reinstituted mask requirements at all public buildings two weeks prior. City Manager Salomone reported that the city was back to the same status as two months prior and would remain that way until trends developed in statewide information. City Manager Salomone explained that each Thursday the city received new data from the state regarding infection and vaccination rates. City Manager Salomone stated that vaccination clinics in the city were ongoing and the key was to increase participation. City Manager Salomone stated that the city had not yet been inclined to include masks in private businesses and that restaurants had not gone back to social distancing, as again the city was waiting to see how trends develop over the next few weeks. City Manager Salomone stated he was looking for the state to develop a county wide system for dealing with the upcoming months. b. City Manager’s Report on Fire Chief’s meetings: Alderman DeLucia read the report by the city manager into the record. SEE  ADDENDUM I. V. New Business: a. Discussion and Possible Action - City Council referral - Fire Chiefs’ meetings Resolution: Alderman DeLucia read the resolution aloud. Alderman Bettencourt reported that amendments to the resolution, in regards to certain verbiage, were planned to have happened during the council meeting but there were enough voting members present so the council would make changes on the city council floor at the next meeting. Discussion ensued. Alderman Bettencourt stated that the resolution was a formality to solidify what was already occurring. Alderman Nash stated he was in favor of making changes as well as the resolution seemed overreaching. Alderman Bettencourt made a motion to pass a favorable recommendation to City Council on the adoption of the Fire Chiefs’ meeting resolution, considering potential changes at the council level. Alderman Nash seconded. All voted in favor. The motion passed unanimously. b. Discussion and Possible Action - Automatic Aid procedure for the Fire Service progress report: Alderman DeLucia stated that while he understood that the universal response plan was an evolution that would take time to implement he felt that two separate dispatch issues needed to be addressed. Alderman DeLucia continued that universal automatic aid and universal mutual aid were all a function of squaring away the city’s dispatch center and that he felt the structure of the run cards could not be changed until the city had a radio system and dispatch center that could effectively handle and manage those changes. Alderman DeLucia stated his second concern was he felt the priority 2 recommendation on page 40 of the fire study, which called for a Norwich Fire Department to automatically respond with a single engine in conjunction with the district’s fire departments in which the emergency was occuring, should not be difficult to implement. Alderman DeLucia stated the closest available resource should be the one en route to a fire to be a conjunction between the paid and volunteer department, as stated in the study. Alderman DeLucia questioned why the issue was not being discussed in the chiefs' meeting as it was not mentioned in the City Manager's report. Alderman Bettencourt asked about the volunteer response into the CCD, which was also discussed in the fire study. Chief Tracy Montoya responded that response had been modified a few years prior and that companies were brought in automatically but not necessarily brought onto the fire scene immediately. Chief Montoya continued that the volunteer departments were not coming in as they should though as the dispatch issue was a two-way street and agreed regarding its priority. Chief Montoya stated the issue was a work in progress to which Chief Timothy Jencks added that while the departments were working towards that goal different things come into play with getting all the factors in line to build a foundation. Chief Jencks continued that it needs to be known what departments’ trucks have what functions and that communication issues with dispatch needed to be resolved. Chief Jencks asked if the Public Safety Committee could look into acquiring funding to hire a second dispatcher. Alderman Nash stated he advocated for years in regards to the next available unit being called to a fire scene or the closest fire house with the materials or units needed. Alderman DeLucia stated he would prefer that automatic aid procedure be an agenda item at the chiefs’ meetings until a solution was reached. c. Department and Agency Updates: SEE ADDENDUM II FOR MONTHLY STATISTICAL REPORTS i. NPU Update: Barry Ellison reported that NPU continued to monitor COVID updated with the state daily and make adjustments as necessary. Barry Ellison stated NPU was back to mandatory masks inside their building with no impact to operations currently. Barry Ellison that the reservoirs were at 94% and 98% full and that  hydrant flushing was ongoing. Barry Ellison discussed the breakdown of the 8th Street water main replacement project. Barry Ellison stated that the project would begin Monday August 16th but traffic impact would not start until the 17th with full road closure from the 19th to 22nd. Alderman Bettencourt asked if during the alternating traffic times would there be room for emergency apparatus. Barry Ellison responded that there would be and that emergency apparatus only needed to change routes the 19th-22nd, which NPU had been in contact with the departments regarding. ii. American Ambulance: None. iii. Police Department Update: Chief Patrick Daley reported 2 members had tested positive for COVID in the past month and that NPD had not yet limited the public from the department. Chief Daley stated he had brought up the issue of the ATVs and scooters to the Public Safety Committee a year prior as NPD is currently unable to confiscate vehicles but is trying to address the issue. Chief Daley reported that two more daylight shootings had occurred in the past month and the NPD continued to work with the fire departments on the CAD/RMS radio system. Alderman DeLucia asked what was needed to address the ATV and scooter issue more effectively. Chief Daley responded that confiscation orders were needed to confirm whose property is being confiscated. Chief Daley stated that a scoot fatality had occurred on West Main Street the year prior and that the issues were affecting quality of life and public safety. Chief Daley continued that the confiscation ordinance was a process that the city should look into. Chief Daley explained that riders often cannot explain whose property they are in possession in so due process would be involved where if they cannot establish documentation of owning the vehicle or proper paperwork it would be confiscated. iv. Emergency Management Update: Chief Tracy Montoya reported that MIS had completed mounting monitors in the EMS training room and that once they completed putting the computer together EM would do a run through and provide a progress update. Chief Montoya reported that Emergency Management asist Uncas Health District in storing PPE supplied on McKinley Avenue. Chief Montoya stated the McKinley Avenue storage area would be reorganized so that other chief’s PPE may be stored there as well in one central location for storage and pickup. v. Fire Department Updates: 1. Norwich: Chief Montoya reported that he had updated NFD’s monthly report data for emergency reporting and that over the month the fire marshals had been quite busy with an average of 1-2 fires a week. Chief Montoya reported a fire response at 117 Prospect with mutual aid on the scene. Chief Montoya stated that Squad A was scheduled for an extensive 4-6 overhaul at Fleet Maintenance and was a critical need. Chief Montoya stated NFD had Engine-4 as a spare and could borrow Engine 52 from East Great Plain if the need arose. Chief Montoya reported a project cost was provided to the city manager for the CAD/RMS radio system as well as the department radios. Chief Montoya stated interviews were conducted for the fire clerk position and a decision would hopefully be made after the second interviews. Chief Montoya stated an additional staffed engine would be parked on the AHEPA complex side of the 8th Street road  closure and that a new firefighter had started in the fire marshal's office. Chief Montoya stated that both facilities remained closed to the public and that public interaction was by appointment only. Chief Montoya reported that the fire chiefs had met without the city manager on July 22nd but had productive conversations with a representative of dispatch present. Chief Montoya reported general progress in and outside of the chiefs meeting with the resolvement of the emergency reporting issue as a huge success. Chief Montoya stated that the automatic aid discussion may be simple on the surface but it is more complicated and that the departments were making strides in that regard. Chief Montoya stated there were details to work out that could be done prior to a full modification of dispatch. Chief Montoya noted that the next available unit was not always a viable option when geography and other factors are taken into account. 2. Taftville: Chief Timothy Jencks reported 86 calls for the month and that pump and ladder testing was completed. Chief Jencks stated Taftville provided mutual aid to several towns in the past month and had also participated in the chiefs’ meetings. Chief Jencks stated members were finishing up online workplace violence assignments and were currently reviewing OSHA mandates regarding COVID and the state EMS program. Chief Jencks stated Taftville had planned to have a community movie night but may postpone due to COVID. Chief Jencks reported that Taftville’s EMS response had not changed and that members were still using all PPE available. 3. Yantic: Chief Bill Eyberse reported 59 incidents for the month and that rescue and medical calls had decreased. Chief Eyberse reported a significant number of rollover accidents in the past week and that he had spoked to the senator’s office regarding changes at the Route 2 clover leaf as the area needed to ultimately be redesigned. Chief Eyberse reported that pump and ladder testing were completed and that their member vaccination level was just below 70%. Chief Eyberse stated that Occum had instituted mandatory masks inside of apparatus on August 3rd and that, along with the other departments, Occum was looking at a new provider for the firefighter physicals. Chief Eyberse reported a committee was put together for reviewing the preplan of the manufacturing project and that the department was having their water pumps worked on and pump operators trained. 4. Occum: Deputy Chief Scott Egert reported 24 calls for the past month and 111 calls for the year, 24 of which were mutual aid. Deputy Chief Egert stated that Occum had responded to a significant amount of storm calls at the beginning of the month and a structure fire at the end of the month. Deputy Chief Egert reported critical needs as Engine 41 which went in for upgrades and would need to go back for work on its hazard lights. Deputy Chief Egert added that ET42 was in the city garage for the past week to replace all six batteries and went back to the garage that  day until at least that Friday to determine why it was not holding a charge. Deputy Chief Egert stated that Occum’s boat went in for service earlier in the month for a battery replacement. Deputy Chief Egert stated Occum currently had 36 members and was awaiting a $100,000 grant from the state to begin station projects. Deputy Chief Egert reported that Occum found a vendor for the access systems project that could do the work for under $10,000 and that they were also looking to seal the driveway and floors in the upstairs halls. Deputy Chief Egert reported that the station was open to the public and Occum was monitoring COVID guidance from the state while still using PPE on all calls. Deputy Chief Egert reported that PPE levels were good and 67% of members were vaccinated. Deputy Chief Egert stated that pump and ladder testing had been completed with no issue. Deputy Chief Egert reported Occum had tested new pagers for radios and dispatch and had passed them off to Yantic. Deputy Chief Egert reported Occum worked with EM to get fire marshal’s access to the reporting system and continued to work on automatic aid and SOGs. 5. East Great Plain: None. See report in ADDENDUM II. 6. Laurel Hill: Deputy Chief Peter Clark reported that COVID supplies were sufficient and that Laurel Hill was following COVID recommendations from the state. Deputy Chief Clark stated that members’ were 95% vaccinated and that 4 members finished EMR classes and were currently testing. Deputy Chief Clark reported that one member would be going to the Fire 1 class the following month and that Laurel Hill had the FIT test machine scheduled later in the month. Deputy Chief Clark stated that pump and ladder testing was completed. VI. Public Safety items for future discussion: None. VII. Next Meeting: September 8, 2021. Mayor Peter Nystrom noted that there would be a scheduling conflict with this date and that month’s city council meeting due to holiday scheduling. Alderman DeLucia stated he would look into finding an alternate date. VIII. Adjournment: Upon a motion by Alderman Bettencourt seconded by Alderman Nash, the meeting was adjourned at 8:42 PM. All voted in favor. The motion passed unanimously. Respectfully Submitted, Katherine Rose ADDENDUM I City Manager’s Report to Public Safety August 2021 I last met with the Fire Chiefs on July 28th to continue our discussion on the ongoing fire service needs in the City. The topics in our last meeting included the radio system upgrade project, future equipment purchases across the City, recent fire responses, and follow up on some of our past discussions. It was good to hear that the Chiefs are making progress and working together on common goals. There is still quite a bit of work to do, but they are working in the right direction. Radio System Upgrades: Last month I was given a rough estimate on project costs from LT Perry of the Police Department. I asked the Chiefs to narrow that range to give a more workable figure. Chief Montoya worked with LT Perry and has since provided me a better figure for me to work with in budgeting the project. The project is a package of an upgrade to the CAD/RMS (Computer Aided Dispatch/Report Management System) at the PD, and new radios and associated components for the FDs. This is a worthwhile project that will serve our dispatch center and fire departments well into the future and will provide our dispatchers with a modern, efficient, and user friendly system for mutual and automatic aid assignments. Future Equipment Purchases: We discussed the need for open communication in planning future equipment purchases, and the need for the departments to consider specializing in certain areas. The Chiefs said they will include this topic in their next meeting. I look forward to hearing how they will approach the challenges associated with equipment and apparatus purchasing. Recent Fire Responses: The recent fire in Occum was discussed as it related to mutual aid companies called to the scene. There was discussion on run cards and what was deemed adequate by Dispatch. Chief Spaulding said they will address the run cards but that he felt the mutual aid response was adequate for this incident based on the fire and the quick availability of mutual aid companies(Taftville was in their station following a previous call, Yantic was also in their station). Follow up from previous meetings included an update on the Emergency Reporting access for the Fire Marshals, SOGs, discussion on the City COVID policies and upcoming changes, state-wide efforts to take back the fire fighting foam, and discussion on fire fighter physicals. Our next meeting is scheduled for August 18th. I believe the Chiefs will try to meet on their own before then. ADDENDUM II August Public Safety Meeting Responded to 84 emergency calls Held our regular monthly trainings and continuing with our online training. Routine maintenance on the apparatus. E52 broke down in the middle of Rte 82 while responding to a fire alarm. The truck continued to run, but wouldn’t go into gear. Had to call city garage at 3 in the morning to get truck out of middle of road. They got it going. Was out of service for a day and a half. They replaced a safety locking device in the pump shifter that goes between road and pump. The old one didn’t haven this safety device like the new apparatus does today. Service 5 (which was Taftvilles Squad 2) is now in service. Our old service truck will be leaving soon. This truck is designated for traffic control at any emergency scene. Yearly ladder and pump testing was completed. Work continues on our renovation of our hall. Starting our next project of re-siding the firehouse. Vendor was having issues locating material but believes they have what they need. Hoping to have this project completed before winter time. All depends on getting the materials delivered. Members are still remaining vigilant with the uptick of COVID variant. Members are still wearing masks on all calls, deconning equipment, apparatus and station continue. Closely following the CDC guidelines and recommendations. Continuing to work with the fire chiefs and Lt Perry from NPD on the radio system Needs: Parking lot replacement Replacement of E52 Report from EGP East Great Plain Volunteer Fire Department Norwich, CT This report was generated on 8/11/2021 1:01:46 AM Incident Statistics Zone(s): All Zones | Start Date: 07/01/2021 | End Date: 07/31/2021 INCIDENT COUNT INCIDENT TYPE # INCIDENTS EMS 52 FIRE 32 TOTAL 84 TOTAL TRANSPORTS (N2 and N3) APPARATUS # of APPARATUS # of PATIENT TRANSPORTS TOTAL # of PATIENT TRANSPORTS CONTACTS TOTAL PRE-INCIDENT VALUE LOSSES $146,700.00 $3,000.00 CO CHECKS 736 - CO detector activation due to malfunction 1 746 - Carbon monoxide detector activation, no CO 1 TOTAL 2 MUTUAL AID Aid Type Total Aid Given 1 Aid Received 2 OVERLAPPING CALLS # OVERLAPPING % OVERLAPPING 6 7.14 LIGHTS AND SIREN - AVERAGE RESPONSE TIME (Dispatch to Arrival) Station EMS FIRE AVERAGE FOR ALL CALLS LIGHTS AND SIREN - AVERAGE TURNOUT TIME (Dispatch to Enroute) Station EMS FIRE AVERAGE FOR ALL CALLS AGENCY AVERAGE TIME ON SCENE (MM:SS) East Great Plain Volunteer Fire Department 18:36 Only Reviewed Incidents included.
