~ity of <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />River <br /> <br />FROM: <br />DATE: <br /> <br />Pat Klaers, City Administrator, Mayor <br />and Council <br />Bruce A. West ~~ <br /> <br />December 31, 1996 <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Hiring of Part Time Fire Inspection <br /> Employees <br /> <br />The process of hiring part time Fire Inspectors has included advertising for <br />the inspector position and interviewing available candidates. At this time I <br />would like to submit to the council for approval the names Rob Dreissig, <br />Mike Crepeau and Terry Elliott for the position of part time Fire Inspector <br />for the City of Elk River. <br /> <br />The part time Fire Inspectors will do inspections in commercial and <br />industrial businesses throughout the city of Elk River. The part time <br />Inspector shall set up appointments, conduct inspections, and submit <br />required reports in reference to the inspection. There shall be approximately <br />20-24 hours per week of inspections to be completed by the part time Fire <br />Inspectors. With the hiring of the three part time Fire Inspectors, along with <br />their varied hours of availability, the inspectors collectively shall complete <br />approximately 1,000-1,200 hours of inspections during the year of 1997. It <br />will be my goal to have each inspector complete between 350 and 400 hours <br />of inspections during 1997. After discussion with Assistant City <br />Administrator Lori Johnson, staff recommends the part time Fire Inspectors <br />be hired at $10.00 per hour. <br /> <br />Along with the part time Fire Inspectors, I will continue to do inspections <br />throughout the city of Elk River in commercial, industrial, new, and existing <br />facilities. I will also continue to do inspections in the schools, churches, <br />daycares, and senior citizens buildings. Follow up inspections in problem <br />areas will be completed by both the part time Fire Inspectors and myself. A <br />reminder to the Council, the newly hired Uniform Housing Code Inspector <br />will be conducting fire inspections in all multi-unit apartment buildings. <br />Uniform Housing Inspector Jim Davis accompanied me on a fire inspection of <br />an apartment building and we have reviewed the requirements for <br />conducting a fire inspection. <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway ° P.O.
