'It <br /> ,zi.RZEN HILLS <br /> MEMORANDUM <br /> DATE: May 14, 2012 <br /> TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers <br /> FROM: Patrick Klaers, City Administrator <br /> SUBJECT: Allina/Fire Department Fire Station#1 Update <br /> Background/Discussion <br /> Mayor Grant requested that a special work session be held to get an update on the Allina <br /> ambulances being stationed at the Arden Hills fire station. <br /> The City Council had an "emergency response - ambulance services" work session on <br /> September 19, 2011, where one of the discussion points was the relocation of the station <br /> where the Allina ambulances were located. The open house of the Mounds View Allina <br /> station was recently held. Some Council members attended this event. With this <br /> relocation to Mounds View, Allina has worked with the Lake Johanna Fire Department <br /> (LJFD) to place an ambulance at Fire Station #1. With this ambulance stationing has <br /> come some complaints about siren noise. <br /> There are pros and cons to the ambulance running out of Station #1. Right now, road <br /> constriction is a factor in response times. Mike Pintar (Operations Manager) and Jeff <br /> Czyson (Director of Operations) from Allina and LJFD Chief Tim Boehlke will be at this <br /> work session to provide an overview of the ambulance situation and to answer questions. <br /> City Council Meeting <br /> PAAdmin\Council\Agendas&Packet Information\2012\5-14-12 Special Wk Sess\Packet\Alllna.doc <br /> Page 1 of 1 <br />
