INTRODUCTION:
Planning is viewed as a series of relatea actions and decisions that �
are organized around and moving toward the accomplishment of �oals and
Objectives. The goals and objectives themselves are the cornerstone of
the planning process, for in theory, they form the framework for public
and private decision making. Effective technical planning only occurs when
there is a clear notion of the goals and objectives being pursued. These
goals can be determined only through decisions concerning the scope and
content of action based ultimately on an established value system. These
goals must ultimately be established by the elected officials in conjunction
with the public, and are the result of a complex set of pressures and
compromises which form the value system of a cammunity.
�
The goals and objectives, once estab1ished, become the basis upon
which operating departments structure their activities, Together they
exhibit a basic concern for goals, values and the need for making basic
choices.
The operating departments then establish policies which are a set of
general statements based on the community`,s goals and objectives that
define the direction and character of future development and set foNth the
actions necessary to attain the desired results. They are the connective
link between general goals and objectives and specific recommendations.
These policies will not be discussed in this document, but will be incor-
porated in a policies plan document.

�g77 Work Load Chanqes:
Should continue about the same as 1976 �vork load level.
Future 4lork Load Chan�es:

remodeling. We will have, and already have seen, an ever increasing number of
addition and alteration perr.iits and in year�s to come, we will see less new con-
struction. tdhile the fee collected on additions and alterations is less per
construction site, the ariount of time spent inspecting and logging the neces-
sary data will remain approximately the sair�e.
Alternatives:

2. Rdd personnel to insure an even closer, more meticulous check on plans and construc-
tion during its progress.
3. Contract the various services we now render from an outside consultant.

How Served:

1977 l,'ork Load Chanaes:
As the Depar•tment personnel, resources and responsibilities increase, the staff must
also ina•ease. Our projection into 1977 indicates a need for an Administrative Aide/
Intern in this program.
Future t•;ork Load Changes:
Consistent with o�rr original projection of Departmental structure made in the reorganiz-
ation pl�n presented to the Coi:ncil in 1972, thc total personnel assigned to this
prograr� �:as felt to be n� more tf�an four. At the present, there aprears to be a need
for an Administrative Aide or hianagement Anal,yst. Should the necessity arise for
additional personnel, tne possibility would exist that a technical or paraprofessional
person may be assigned to assist in this program such as a paralegal employee.
Alternatives:
1. Any reduction in tlie present staf'f will resutt in ineffective control and fra9mented
efforts. It �aill further result in citizen complaints as well as inability of the
staff to complete work assi9nments because of tack of coordination and lack of policy
level leadership. '
2. To hold at the current level is becominq increasinaly difficult with the continued
increase in erimc raYes and hi9hcr degrce of denuuids placed upon thc administration
by the political and adniinistrative leaders, unions, courts and other governmental
agcncies.
3. Ftaintain current level at an anticipated reduction in effeciency due to increased

Services provided by a continous patrol of the streets and areas of the City on a 24
hour basis, seven days per week to provide the residents and property owners with a
coRmunity that is safe and desirable to live and work in. This indirectly provides
visitors, transients and people a�orking ►�rithin the City with the same safe and
desirable conditions.
i977 Work Load Changes:
It is anticipated that the work load for this program will continue to increase at a rate
at least equa} to the proportionate crime rate increase in addition to the increased
citizen demands in other areas such as emergency calls and public education programs.
Future Work Load Changes:
Considerable research into the amount of incidents within the City and several programs
developing tvithin the County or programs that are anticipated to be developed would
have an impact on possible future work load changes.
Alternatives•
1. Maintain the same level. In evaluating the present strength of the Police Department
and in consideration of the monetary restrictions anticipated for 1977, this course
has been recomnended concerning sworn personnel.
2. To reduce the patrol strength would detract from the services provided and directly
affect the crime rate and traffic enforcement as well as.establish conditions for a
hiqher element of risk to the welfare of the public.
3. To eliminate the Police Department, contract with the Sheriff's Office or another
agency to patrol the City. The anticipated contra�tual estimated cost for
contractual services would, based on preliminary figures, exceed the Police Depart-
ment budget by approximately 25Z in direct cost. This would not take into consider-
ation the indirect cost of the County tax collected to provide manpower necessary.
4. Increase the staff to provide the public a greater system of service and security.

provide an interchange of information.
1977 Work Load Changes:
It is anticipated that the work load in 1977 will continue to increase with local and
national crime rates. tJith the inception of hiCIU in 1974, it was anticipated that
a considerable amount of work load would be reduced for our local investigaiions, however,
experience has shown this not to be the case. The local demand for followup investiga-
tions, formal sLatements, citizen requests for the i«nnediate presence of a plain clothes
officer has created an equal or above demand on our investigators since the inception of
MCIU. With the inception of the Team Policing concept, an effort is being made to direct
the effort of Team officer to more detailed investigation of crimes thus reducing the
demands upon the investigators.

1. Continue at the same level.
2. Expand the program by adding either technicians or officers.

Program Objective:
To provide a means of controlling animals within the City by ordinance e�forcement and

the handling of animals whether live, injured, dead, including the disposal and/or
boarding of said animal. To maintain existing level of service continually year-around

Description:
1. Equipment is provided by the contractor selected to provide ihe necessary animal
control service.
2. Manpower needed: 1976 needs have shown that the current level of operation with
one vehicle and faur hour person day basis is adequate.
3. General tasks involved include patrolling the City streets, issuing citations,
warnings or verbally communicating with ovrners of animals consistituting violations
and capturing, containing, transporting, boarding, and releasing to owners or
otherwise disposing of all unlicensed animals found in voilation of Chapter 302
of the City Code.

Now Served:
1. By four hours of street patrol each day at varied times concentrated at areas which
have generated citizen's complaints coordinated through the Police Department.
2. Qy accomplishing conformity to the Fridley City Code through issuance of citations.
3. By providing education as to the content of the Frid1ey City Code by verbal
cortxnunications with violators and school lectures to students on animal care.
1977 Work Load Changes:
It is not anticipated that any increase in service is necessary for 1977.
Future lJork Load Changes:
It would appear that at this point that the level of service that is presently
maintained would be adequate for several years.
Alternatives:
1. Reduce the level of service, which is undesirable.
2. Maintain the present level which we feel would suffice for the present and for some
distance into the future.
3. Dispense �oith contractual service and take over all of the aspects of animal control
with the hiring of personnel and purchasing equipment. This step at this point
is not justified economically and it is felt that the current situation of
contracting for this personnel and equipment is much more desirable.
4. Increase the level of service which does not appear to be justified at this time.

of structure involved, �•reather condition, time of day, contents of building and
• the number of people that might be involved, also exposures. Prepla�,�ing plays
a large part in ho�•r the emergency vrill be handled. Prior knowledge :� building

the �•�ater mains, location of hydrants. Many evolutions are carried aut
simultaneously: checking to make certain no one is burned, injured, trapped,

fire. If the fire is beyond the capabilities of the department, or all of our
fire fighiing force wiil be tied up for a long period of time, calling for
mutual aid. Salvage and overhaul follow attacking the fire. Investigation as
to the cause usuall,y begins before the fire is extinguished. On the scene
investigation is conducted by the Deputy fire Chief; in his absence, the
highest ranking officer at the scene does so. On large loss or suspicious fires
' the Chief Officer ca11s in the 7oca1 police, the Anoka County Crime Bureau and
the State Fire P1arshal's office. ln the case of small fires, salvage may
consist of vacuuming up the +rrater on the floor and using a deodorant to kill the
smoke odor. On large fires it is usually necessary to cover openings in the
roof, broken windo���s or doors t•rith plastic. After the fire it is necessary to
drain the hoses (wash them if dirty) and place them back on the truck. Cleaning
of all equipment used and filling air mask tanks is done at the station after

Nasim Qureshi, City Manager
Robert S. Hughes, Chief
Gentlemen:
The encTosed information is a summary of the activities of the Fridley Fire
Departments Bureau of Fire Prevention. In some measure the data included
can be interpreted to summarize the Fridley Fire Department for the year of
1976 - this is intended, a report of the Bareau without the data of runs and
7osses incurred during the year would provide little in the vray of useful
information. .
As in years past, Fridley's growth and economic development has continued
at a brisk rate; this fact provides a continuing challenge to the Fire
Department, both in the areas of fire prevention as well as suppression.
Government continues to be responsible to prov�de leadership in the vital
area of fire ioss management. Public apathy is great, thus challenging
City and Fire department administrators to provide forceful and dynamic
leadership in this crucial area.
As the responsible authority, government should be looking to the development
af a total Community Fire Loss Management Plan. Too often government reacts
to the probiem after the fact, this is not sufficient when taking into account
today's economics, technology, etc. and the tragic loss of life and property.
My thanks to the Administration and City Council and Chief Hughes for their
continued support of the programs of the Department and it's Fire Prevention
Bureau. This support is necessary if these programs are to continue as
worthwhiie efforts in fire loss management.
Respectfully submitted,

I.. INTRODUCTIOPJ
In accordance with Chapter 108 of the City Code
Department maintains a Fire�Prevention Bureau.
inciude fire inspections, fire investigations,
records and the public education programs.
of Fridley, �he Fire
Function of the bureau
arson investigations,
The Deputy Chief of the de�artment serves as the Chief of the Fire
Prevention Bureau and the additional manpower needs are supplied by
detailing the paid firefighters of the department and the use of part-time
men taken from the paid on-cail members of the department. This syste�
has �vorked �uite well although we have not been able to start training
of the personnel in areas of significant importance namely, public education
programs and fire investigations.
Expansion of these programs is therefore limited and the City should consider
the possibility of additional permanent personnel that could be used in these
areas.
At the present time the Fire Prevention Bureau enforces the Fire Prevention
Code of the Insurance services office. This is a nati�nal code that has
been adopted b.y. the City by reference. There is also a considerable
amaunt of fire safety and fire prevention re�uirements incorporated in the
Uniform Building Code. Very close cooperaiion exists between the Building
Inspection department and the Bureau in dealing with these regulations.
Recentiy the State of Minnesota adopted a Uniform Fire Code which is
eonsistent and complimentary to the Uniform Bui7ding Code. A study of
this'code is presently being conducted by the Fire Prevention Bureau to
determine if the City should adopt this new code or continue to use the
present Nat�onal Fire Prevention Code.
The main activities of the Fire Prevention Bureau fall into one of the
fo]low�ng areas: inspections, educatio�, fi�e and arson investigations,
plan review and licensing. Brief resumes of each these functions are
included later in this report.

II. SUMMARY OF PROGRAMS
A. Educational Activ9ties
The success or failure of a fire prevention program to a large exient
r�sts with its educational programs. It is a fairly well established
fact that the extent to which the citizens of a community can b'e
legislated is rather ]imited, much ioo limited to do an effective job
of fire prevention. This is as it should be. The most effective fire
prevent�on measures are those that are so7d and accepted by the public
on the basis of their merit. It then becomes necessary to educate so
that one will recognize what �s meritable and worth4�hile. Education
has been for many years the back bone of the Fire Prevention Bureau.
Exnerience f�as shown that the most effective age level for educational
programs is in the elementary schools. To this end, the Fridley Fire
Department has for the pas� 21 years promoted a very constructive and
well received FIRE PREVENTION program in the fifth grade of all
elementary schools in Fridley.
All of our education is not limited to youngsters onTy. The Fire
Prevention Bureau works in industry �o foster and organize plant fire
protection brigades. The many programs have included development of
emergency procedure outlines for nursing hames, rest hames and
hospitals. Training sessions �rith the persannel in these institutions
have been c�nducted to prove out the soundness of the plan.
These programs in the

opinion of tE�e Bu�eau have all been very
our hope that as the years go by, we can expand
and develop new ones to �nclude increasingly
r citizens.
1. Junior Fire Department
The appeal of a red fire engine or the personal appearance of a
fire fighter stiil produces a high 1eve1 of excitement and
enthusiasm in young people. Recognizing this the Fridley Fire �
Department's main thrust in the area of public education is
directed at elementary school age children. The enthusiasm of
these young people can be a most valuable commodity in attempting
to spread the gospel of fire safety. For this reason the department
continues to place emphasis on it's "Junior Fire Department"
program in the �ifth grade. Approx�mately ]l00 fifth graders will
have participated in this program during 1976. Using audio visual
aids, textbooks, lectur.es and various pub�ications avai]ab7e to
the fire department from organizations interested in fire s�fety,
the department attempts ta lay a sound fourdation and understanding
of fire safety and fire prevention practices. It has been found
that the young peopie of this age are extremely receptive to
programs of this type and provide an excellent vehicle to carry the

r
.

1. Junior Fire Department (continued)
Fire Prevention story. This program has been very well received
by the school authorities and children as well. The cooperation of
the teachers �n fiiting it into their curriculum has been most
enthusiastic and is most certainly necessary if a program of this
nature is to be successful.
The program is divided into five visits to each fifth grade
room each year. Students are required to take a test to
determine their knowledge of fire prevention principles and
�lso required to make an inspection of their home accompanied
by a parent. During other visits they are shown fil�s,
demonstrations and given talks dealing with fire safety and
fire prevention.
The very fine printed material used in the program is furnished
to us as a public service of the Fridley State Bank and its
president, Mr. William Berry, and the Fridley Lions Club.
2, Industrial Fire Brigade Training
The effects of a major fire at one of the larger industrial
occupancies in Fridley would be a serious blow to the community.
Recognizing this, the Fire Prevention Bureau �vorks very closely
with the industrial leaders of �ur community to stimulate an
active interest in FIRE PREVENTION in the plant and on the job.
A two-fold benefit accrues from programs of this type. The
plant wi11 gain due to an increased interest in fire safety and
prevention that is gained through the process of training the
brigade. The other gain is that in the event of a fire, a
properly trained fire brigade will most often prevent it from
becoming the major fire that every one dreads. A continuous
effort is being made to interest other plants and factories in
Fridley to take advantage of iris service and training.
3. Nursing, Rest Homes and Hospitals
The chief concern of any fire department must be the life hazard
potential that exists at any fire scene. No greater life hazard
exists today than in nursing homes, rest homes and hospitais.
The many people confined are almost all in need of special aid
at the time of an emergency. This bureau has prepared an outline
for emergency procedures in nursing and rest homes and has
conducted drills and training sessions with employees in these
types of occupancies to�assist the management and insure that in
the event of an emergency, the patients will be assured competent
assistance during the course of the emergency. The Fire Prevention
Bureau has continued to assist in the training of hospital personnel
3. Nursing, Rest Homes and Hospitals (continued)

in fire procedures for use in the hospital. In addition, training
sessions with employees of the hospital (nurses, maintenance,
switchboard and dietary personnel) have been held to help them
unders�and the proper use and operation of fire extinguishers.
The Bureau has also supervised fire drills at each of the
institutions and will continue to do so with drills planned for
ail shifts.
P1uch emphasis is being placed on the need for automatic fire
detection devices in this type of occupancy. Construction is
very restricted by present codes, and the instal]ation of
automatic detection devices ti��ould serve the very usefui purpose of
providing immediate notification of the fire department in the
event of an emergency.
Occupation - Baby Sitter
Whose hand do you place your children in for your night on the to�m?
More often than not, it is the hand of a young girl or boy between
ihe ages of i2 to 15 years of age. ThE fire department continues
to cooperate with the hirs. J.C.'s in providing baby sitter
training classes in the City.
�. Home Detector Program
In the fall of 1975 a new program was inaugurated involving home fire
detectors. Specifications were prepared and quotations obtained
f rom various supplie�s to furnish the equipment.
Through this program the City ��ras able to save those ��ho purchased
detectors approximately one-third the average retail cost of a home
fire detector. Approximately 1200 Fridley residents took advantage
of this program.
Although no new efforts have been made, the 1975 program has developed
into a continuing'program.
The Chamber of Commerce has cortinued it's enthusiastic support of this
program, and it is estimated that 2,000 homes in the City now have
early warning fire detectors installed.
D. General Inspections
Currently each industrial, commercial and mu7tiple dwel]ing occupancy
in the City is inspected by Fire Prevention Bureau personnel at least
twice each year. Three specific benefits accrue as a result of this
pragram. .
. .l
D. General Inspections (continued)
1. Identification and removal of hazards.
2. Information can be fed back to the fire suppression division
regarding target and special hazards.
3. The fire department becomes available as a resource to industry
and commerce in roethodolgy and techniques of safely using and
storing hazardous materials and chemicals.
Current staffing of this function is accomplished by the use of part-time
inspectors. Results of this program have proven the effectiveness and
economy of operating in this manner.
E. In Service Inspections
Although the value of this activity is divided between both fire
prevention and suppression the program is in general administered
through the Fire Prevention Bureau. A very considerable benefit of
this program, which consist of an inspection by the company, is the
ability of the individual members of thz department to get a first
hand, inside look at many of ihe industries in the City. Approximately
nine industries �lere inspected in �his manner during 1976.
F. Fire Investigations
Fire investigations are divided in�o tvro categories. One is determining
the cause and point of origin of the so-called accidental fire. The
other �s investigation of suspicious fires and fires of incendiary origin.
In both categories a significant increase has taken place. Incendiary
fires are on the increase throughout the nation, and Fridley is no
exception. Arson investigations are very time consuming and are not
always too successful. An estimated 20 fires occ�rred in Fridley last
year that were of suspicious origin. This figure does not take into
account the fires set by youngsters in fields, dumpsters, etc. but only
fires in �vhich a sizable lass occurred. Fourteen fires were cleared
as a result of these investigations with nine fires being resolved by
arrest of three parties involved in the fires. A word of thanks here
to the fine cooperation I have received from the Po7ice department in
conducting these investigations.

ANALYSIS OF FIRE LOSSES/SAVINGS
The traditiona� reporting mechanisms of the Fire service, fire losses and
total number of responses do not appear to be completely valid as measuring
parameters of the fire loss management efforts of the fire department.
If a loss as a result of fire does occur, it is necessary to determine the
relatianship of the size of the loss to the potential loss if no fire
department action a�ere to be applied. This difference, between loss and
potential loss, can be construed to be a direct savings as a result of the
fire department action. Using this same concept the direct revenue savings
can also be calcuiated.
This will show in positive terms the value of a communities fire department.
The attached data, which deals only with fires that occurred in Fridley
during 1976 in which the structura] components of the building were actually
involved in the fire, tivill give a direct view of this savings as a result
of fire department action. Not included in this computation is any inventory
of personal property; however, if these items were included it would certainly
increase the savings factor.
The values used in this study, and the�r source are listed below:

AN ANALYSIS OF THE TOTAL COST OF FIRE P�OTECTION IN FRIDLEY
There remains yet another tangible and measurable factor related to the
cost/effectiveness of the Fire Department function. Any attempt to determine
tht total cost of fire protection in a community must include the cost of
insurance premiums paid by the citizenry to protect themselves from loss
by fire.
The total cost of fire protection can then be said to include the following:
The operating budget of the fire department ir�cluding pensions
and fringe benefits.
The cost of fire insurance to the residents of the city.
By using the basis rate tables of the Insurance Services Office (rating bureau)
it is possible to determine the insurance cost for the city in a Class 10
rate (no fire department) and compare it against the cost for the city in
Class 5(present rate). A cost/effective ratio will then occur as the annual
cost of fire department operations as opposed to the lowered cost of insurance
to the residents of the City af Fridley.
The assumptions used in this study are based upon valuations furnished by
the Tax Assessor's office. The percentage of the classifications
(residential, multiple, cor�mercial and industrial) are also based upon tax
office information.
I have assumed for the purposes of this study that our commercial and
industrial properties all fall into the construct�on classification
"fire resistive", and I am using the basis rate for that type of construction.
In some cases these assumptions will vary from actuality; however, enough
of the occupancies of any grouping can be tested against the basis rate to
provide a reasonably accurate discussion of the total cost of fire protection
in the City of Fridley.

IV. BITS & PIECE5
What is a fireman?
Ke's the guy next door.
He's a man's man with the sharp memory of a�lit�tle boy who never got over
the excitement of engines and sirens and smoke ��nd danger.
He's a guy like you and me with warts and worri��s and unfulfilled dreams.
Yet he stands taller than most of us.
He's a fireman.
Fle puts it all on the line when the bell rings.
A fireman is at once the most fortunate and the least fortunate of inen.
He's a man who savors life because he has seen t:oo much death. He's a �
gentle man because he has seen too much of the �.wesome power of violent
forces out of control. He's a man responsive tc� a child's laughter
because his arms have held too many small bodie� that will never laugh again.
Ne's a man who appreciates the simple pleasures of life ... hot coffee held
in numbed, unbending fingers ... the flush of fresh air pumping through smoke
and fire convulsed lungs ... a N1arm bed for bone and muscle compelled beyond
feeling ... the comraderie of brave men ... the divine peace of selfless
service and a job well done in the name of�all men.
He doesn't wear buttons or wave flags or shout obsceniti�es and when he
marches it is to honor a fallen comrade.
He doesn't preach the brotherhood of man.
He lives it.

V. SUMP�IARY
In summary, certain pertinent facts appear to emerge to form a rather
exacting picture of the fire loss management problem in the City of
Fridley.
1. Losses in life and property in Fridley are increasing.
2. Injuries to civilians and firefigh�ers are increasing.
3. Total number of responses is increasing.
4. Arson and suspicious fires are increasing.
5. The above rates are increasing at a rate greater than the
commitment of resources of the City.
It is suggested that the City of Fridley become actively involved in a o
Fire Loss Management Master Plan that defines goals and objectives of
a Tota1 Fire Loss Management concept and involves all facets of the
governmental process involved in the fire problem of the community.
The fire problem in Fridley cannot continue to funciion on a day-to-day
basis. The picture is constantly changing as are the consequences of
the problem. Management of the fire problem should be put on a systematic,
planned approach that c�n be adjusted to meet the constantly changing
challenge of rire. �
