The City Council of the City of Fridley does oxdain as follows:
Prior C4�apter 108 codifie�i April 1�, 1480 is hereby repeale�l itt its entirety.
New Chapter 108 is adopted as follows:
108.01. FIRE FREVENTION AND OON`I'ROL FOLICY STATII�IQ�T.
It is declared to be the policy of the City of Fridley to vigorously promote the
safety and welfare of its citizens. In this context, the traditional approach
to fire service -- suppressim3 fires once ignited, rescuirig survivors, and too
frequently exposing firefighters to physical danger and death, all at a
disportionately high connminity ir�vest�nent of resources in manpower ancl equipment
-- is declared unacceptable for Fridley. Rather, it is the fire safety policy
of the City of Fridley to efficiently utilize its resources and m�vcimize life,
safety and citizen welfare by requiring that fire prevention and ext;�n,iching
systems be built into certain new structures. Thus, the effectiveness of the
Fridley Fire Depar�nt is enh,�nc�d and exteaxled at a lower cost to the
citizenxy, life safety is allocated a priority at least as great as property
protection, and the owner cost of built-in fire protection is partially or
wholly repaid in savings on initial construction costs and annual fire insurance
premiwns.
