SPECIAL CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION—MAY 14, 2012 5 <br /> ARDEN HIL L S S <br /> Fire Chief Boehlke noted two calls were made regarding the trucks idling and two calls were <br /> made regarding the lights and sirens. <br /> Mr. Pintar stated he would continue to speak with his staff to assure the vehicles would not idle <br /> in the parking lot. He wanted to minimize the impact on the neighborhood while keeping the <br /> residents safe. He indicated Allina would like to be located in the community. <br /> Mayor Grant was interested in reviewing the information and response times from Allina further. <br /> He requested Allina provide this information to the Council in September. <br /> Mr. Pintar explained he would gather this information for the Council. He commented that no <br /> accidents have been caused by the paramedics from Fire Station #1, but he understood there were <br /> disruptions from the lights and sirens. He indicated that an averaged three emergency calls were <br /> made each day from this location with lights and sirens. Allina would continue to work with the <br /> City to find the best location in the City to meet the needs of the community. However, having an <br /> advanced life support vehicle in the community had its advantages. <br /> Councilmember Tamble recommended a newsletter article be written to inform the public of the <br /> ambulance location at Fire Station #1. He understood that the road construction this summer <br /> would have impacts on response times. <br /> Mayor Grant suggested the data provided from Allina be included in the newsletter article. <br /> Mr. Pintar commented he would continue to gather information for the Council and looked <br /> forward to reviewing it with them in several months. <br /> 3.
