calls and they did an excellent job.

starting on January 4th.
The run log for the month was included with the materials. In November we responded to 586

Chief Bowen gave an update on our budget impact due to COVID. We will be receiving
assistance from our municipalities from the Routes to Recovery grant program. Based on
expected revenues, we anticipate we will end the year with a possible surplus.
Kent Lorenz commented that this year did have financial challenges, but thanked Chief Bowen
for his leadership in getting the district through it.
Discussion/Action – Tender 95 Fire Pump Repairs
This was tabled at the last meeting with a request to obtain additional bids. Three bids have
now been obtained and the recommendation of the chiefs is to go with the bid from Reliant Fire
Apparatus.
A motion was made by Jimi Hall and seconded by Lisa Mellone to accept the Reliant Fire
Apparatus bid at a cost not to exceed $13,325.28. Motion carried.
Discussion/Action – Emergency Responder Sick Leave Policy
Chief Bowen stated that our current Emergency Responder Sick Leave policy expires on
December 31, 2020 which is also when the Federal act currently expires. Our full-time
employees are eligible for sick pay, but our part-time employees have no income to replace the
lost pay from when they are out of work due to COVID. On the last payroll, we did pay $5,500
in COVID sick pay for the period of March through November. Chief Bowen’s
recommendation is to extend the policy.
A motion was made by Jeff Roemer and seconded by Kent Lorenz to extend the policy through
March 31, 2021. Motion carried.
Discussion/Action – EMS Billing Fee Schedule
Chief Bowen stated we requested our billing vendor provide a report on what our neighboring
departments are charging. Based on that, he recommended adjustments to our billing rates.
A motion was made by Jeff Roemer and seconded by Kent Lorenz to adopt the EMS Billing
Fee Schedule as presented. Motion carried.

years ago, we went through a very comprehensive review of specs and are recommending we
continue to use what has been working very well for us.
A motion was made by Kent Lorenz and seconded by Lisa Mellone to approve the Rapid
Response Vehicle upfitting as presented. Motion carried.

Discussion/Action – 2021 Capital Project - Ambulance
Chief Bowen stated we have two ambulances scheduled to be replaced in 2021. Only one bid
was presented as other vendors did not want to spend the time working on a bid when we just
purchased ambulances from Foster Coach and have been very happy with them. In addition to
the two ambulances, which are projected to be in under budget, Chief Bowen recommends we
also replace four of our existing radios so all six of our front-line ambulance are able to
communicate with Dodge and Jefferson county. We are not recommending any changes to the
design of our ambulance. The recommendation is to pre-pay for the ambulances to take
advantage of a $10,000 discount.
A motion was made by Jeff Roemer and seconded by Kent Lorenz to approve the purchase of
two Horton ambulances from Foster Coach at a cost not to exceed $621,366 as presented.

Fire Chief Brad Bowen’s Report
Chief Bowen reported that our call volume over the past three weeks is up 25% averaging 20+
calls per day. We also have responded to multiple structure fires.
We have been on more EMS calls with COVID patients. As we return from those calls, the
crews need to shower and change cloths before being available for another call and to keep
their families safe.
Chief Bowen stated that our ambulance call volume has gone up although our revenues have
not. Andres has been hit hard by COVID and was behind in billings. They have gotten caught
up and we should see our revenues up with the November revenues.
Chief Bowen anticipates we will be receiving $114,000 from Routes to Recovery grants
submitted by our municipal partners. With that grant and our increased ambulance revenue and
the sale of the old Okauchee engine, we are anticipating being near our budgeted revenue.
November 23, 2020 Fire Board Meetring.docx Page 1 of 4
We are working on plans to administer COVID vaccines to first responders.
Assistant Chief’s and Bureau Reports
The Assistant chief and Bureau reports were distributed earlier.
George Morris asked if there were any questions regarding the reports. Kent Lorenz asked
about our staffing. Chief Bowen stated we are continuing to hire, but also are losing
employees. We also are dealing with employees out due to COVID.
Discussion/Action – Tender 95 Fire Pump Repairs
A power-point presentation was included with the materials on the repairs needed to the pump.
The tender is still functional, but the pump is out of service. It could be used in an extreme
emergency.
Chief Bowen advised that the cost of the repairs, estimated to be $16,991.79, would be taken
from the maintenance budget.
Deputy Chief Igl explained what needs to be done to the pump.
Kent Lorenz asked if we had solicited bids as this is a large expense. Chief Bowen was
directed to attempt to get additional bids. No further action was taken and this item was tabled
until the next meeting.
Discussion/Action – Emergency Responder Sick Leave Policy
Chief Bowen stated that in March, the board adopted a resolution designating the employees of
WLFD as “emergency responders” which exempted employees from the EPSLA and EFMLA
provisions of the FFCRA. Our partner municipalities have been approving up to 80 hours of
paid sick leave in a two-week period to employees that test positive for COVID and are in
quarantine.
A policy was drafted by our attorney regarding Emergency Responder Sick Leave. If adopted
and applied retroactively, we would be paying $9,012.
A motion was made by Mike Tompkins and seconded by Bill Riemenschneider to adopt the
Emergency Responder Sick Leave Policy as presented. Motion carried.
Discussion/Action – Unused 2020 Vacation Time of Full-Time Employees
Chief Bowen stated that, due to COVID we have full-time employees that have hours
remaining in their benefit vacation bank. We did put a hold on vacations due to staffing. Our
current policy does not allow for vacation carryover. Chief Bowen provided the following
options to the board:
o Compensate employees for unused vacation at 75%
o Allow carryover
o Move unused vacation to employee’s sick leave bank
o Follow current policy, and if employees don’t use their vacation time, they lose it.
A motion was made by Jimi Hall and seconded by Kent Lorenz to allow employees to carry
over one week and get paid out for any remaining vacation at 75%. This change is only good
for 2020. Motion carried.
Discussion/Action – Dedicated property for future fire station (City of Oconomowoc)
A 1.6-acre parcel of land was donated to the City of Oconomowoc by Bielinski Development
with the condition it could only be used for a fire station. The City of Oconomowoc has been
maintaining the property. The city wants to know if this location is still a viable location. If so,
they will continue to keep it. If not, they would return the property to Bielinski Development.
The consensus of the board was that the City of Oconomowoc should keep the property as it is
a good location for a future satellite location due to the volume of calls in that area.
November 23, 2020 Fire Board Meetring.docx Page 2 of 4
Discussion/Action – 2021 Part-time Wages
Chief Bowen distributed his proposed part-time wage rates. The 2021 budget was created
utilizing the proposed rates.
A motion was made by Mike Tompkins and seconded by Jeff Roemer to approve the proposed
wage rates as presented. Motion carried.
Discussion/Action – 2021 CIP Staff Car 1
The purchase of the 2021 Chevrolet Silverado has already been approved. We are now
requesting approval for the upfitting of the vehicle. The budget amount for the entire project
was $55,000. The cost of the upfitting and the cost of the vehicle will come in $122.43 under
budget.
A motion was made by Jeff Roemer and seconded by Bill Riemenschneider to approve
upfitting of the 2021 CIP Staff Car 1. Motion carried.
Discussion/Action – 2021 CIP Vehicle Lift
An apparatus lift was budgeted in the 2021 capital plan. Three bids were received and the
recommendation is to go with NAPA. The cost will exceed the budget by $1,000.
A motion was made by Jeff Roemer and seconded by Kent Lorenz to approve the NAPA bid at
a cost not to exceed $65,459.36. Motion carried.
Discussion/Action – COVID precautions – meetings and residency
Chief Bowen asked for direction on future board meeting. Should they be virtual or continue in
person. Mike Tompkins suggested we continue in person, but exclude staff unless needed. Jeff
Roemer suggested moving the meetings to a larger facility such as the Summit Village Hall, or
City of Oconomowoc chambers. Lauri Sullivan stated that if the meetings were to go virtual, it
needs to be 100% virtual so all attendees are at a computer so everyone can see and hear those
speaking.
The consensus of the group was to continue to have in-person meetings, but move to a larger
facility.
There was discussion on where we would house an intern if they tested positive for COVID.
We have out of state interns so if they tested positive, they would need a place to go as we
would not want them to remain at the station and potentially infect the other staying at the
station. Chief Haerter is working with local hotels for rates and also checking with other
facilities or apartments.
Recess
George Morris called for a recess at 5:15 pm.
Closed Session
At 5:21 pm the Fire Board convened into closed session by roll-call vote.
Open Session
At 6:05 pm the Fire Board reconvened into open session.
Discussion/Action – Human Resources Manager Position

recommendations to the fire board. They came up with two applicants that they felt met the
requirements for the position, with one as their top candidate.
November 23, 2020 Fire Board Meetring.docx Page 3 of 4
A motion was made by Jimi Hall and seconded by Kent Lorenz for Chief Bowen to meet and
discuss with the top candidate regarding the position and present the candidate with conditional
offer of employment for January 2021 start date. Motion carried.
Discussion/Action – Firefighter/Paramedic Position(s)

process, Chief Bowen is authorized to hire up to four full-time firefighter/paramedics with a
start date in January. Motion carried.
