1964 Pirk Avenue <br />Long Lake, MN. 55356 <br />t- <br />April 13, low <br />Orono City Council Members <br />Long Lake City Council Members <br />Medina City Council Members <br />Dear Sir or Madam: <br />Greetings! <br />During the first quarter of 1999, the Long Lake Volunteer Fire Department was as busy as ever. I <br />have attached a spreadsheet outlining where we spent a good portion of our time. <br />One item not listed on the recap is a program we recently started called ALERT. Through a <br />generous contribution firom First Alert, we are now able to offer smdce detectors to Guests in our Fire <br />Service Area firec of charge While our main goal is to give the detectors to those who may <br />otherwise not be able to afford them, vrt will certainly give them to anyone who asks. As a way to <br />promote the program, we communicated the program through the City newsletters. In addition, we <br />gave the Fire Departments of Maple Plain, Wayzata and Mound SO detectors each to hand out to their <br />Fire Service Guests. <br />Some upcoming herns that I would like to inform you about include: <br />Home Safety—as a way to prevent emergencies, the Team will be developing a new prog <br />where, as requested, we will visit people’s homes and provide them with safety tips and <br />suggestions. <br />r'.'ii <br />House Numbering — We will be moving forward with an aggressive program aimed at <br />getting Guests in the fire service area to get address numbers. To support this program, we <br />will be working to develop a partnership with a manufocturer to secxire number^g that can be <br />placed onto mailboxes. When appropriate, we will give Guests numbers for their mailboxes <br />fi-ee of charge. <br />Community Night Out — During June, we plan on taking all of our vdiicles out into different <br />areas of the Community and simply spend time with our Guests. This will be a good time to <br />share information about the Fire Department and our programs. <br />Thank you, in advance, for your continued pailnership. <br />Sincerely, <br />k’ <br />Steve Persian <br />Fire Chie^ Long Lake Vohmteer Fire Department <br />T • ' <br />Prevention Through ConunurdtybUeriKtion j <br />jihniiu
