He present�ci the Task Force's analysis of depart�ent needs, While the popuiatian has c�oubled, the department provides additianal services wit�z a staffing IevQl that has remained stagnani and is weli beiow its�recommended sixe. � The department also neec�s resouress to address high-risa emergencies. T�e fire insp�ction sch�dule should be reduced from every 3 years to every 'i 2 months. Staff is struggfing ta rneet maintenance a�d rPparr r�eeds. Th� dspartment lacks adaquate clerica) sup�ort. New fire s#ations ar� needed in Sand Key and northwest Clearwater. The current stations ar� oEci, do not accommodate female personnel, lack space to clean haza�dous � mat�riais, and have outdated wiring, heat, and air-conditionir�g. The re#�air anc� training facilities are autdated and the supply store needs ta be reno�atecf. The Task Force concuTs the department needs replacement apparatus, adciitianal engir�es, aeriais, support and � rescue vehicles, up3raded airpacks, autamatic exterior defiibriilators, and traffic control . syste�ns. ' Membar Tieman said City firefig}�ters are dedicated proiessionals who put their lives oR #he line and need ihe right tools to accamplish their jobs. The Task Force recommends increasing staffing �eve[s to, lawer res�onse times to Iess tha� 4 minutes. . .

Cflsts reflect inflation b�i do not irtclude lanti acquisition costs. Department equipment and apparatus needs during the next 5 years wi11 cost approximately $4-rnillior�. The Task Force r�commended the City use �enny for Pinellas proceeds to fund S 17-million in capital expenses. The �ire Task Force recammends: 11 incr�asing the Fire Department's staffing le�els by 45 FTEs {full-time equivalentsl during the next 5 years; 2} that every engin� carry a minimum staff af 4; and 3) that the CEty increase the mrliage ta cover Fir� Department operating costs, which are, estimat�d ta increase by 54.5-million annually by the c;nd of 20Q5.

Fire Chief Rowland Herald said earlier department estimates had been based on 10- to �A- year projections, He supported the Task Farce recommencfations, stating that doing E�ss would rtall short of ine�ting City needs. The Taslc Force was requesteci to present the report io n�ighborhood associations and garner support. • Mr. Horne was complirrienteci for maintaining the Task Farce's focus.
