2020 Annual Report Details Lake Johanna Fire Department Activity The Lake Johanna Fire Department has issued their annual report for 2020. The report outlines the department’s activities and provides interesting reporting metrics. A few highlights are: Arden Hills had a total of 1,044 calls, with Shoreview and North Oaks at 2,020 and 497, respectively. The total calls are down from 2019 (3,627 versus 3,820) primarily due to COVID-19 resulting in fewer calls in the second quarter as people worked from home. The City of Arden Hills accounted for 28.8% of the calls, down by 94 calls over last year. Lake Johanna Fire Departement Update It’s That Time of Year…Dig out Fire Hydrants Snowplows may inadvertently cover and hide hydrants during their passes, putting emergency crews at a disadvantage when responding to a call. Clearing snow from around fire hydrants saves firefighters precious time in the event of an emergency. A three-foot clearance is needed on all sides of the hydrant, and be sure to keep weeds and grass cut back during the rest of the year. o Arden Hills had an average response time of 6 minutes, which was virtually identical to last year’s response time of 6:01. o Rescue and Emergency Medical Services made up a majority of the department’s calls at 75%; less than 2% was for actual fire responses.
