This design will still be over budget but only by approximately $29,000. Mr. Thompson requested the Commission contribute this amount toward the project. Mr. Glen Arterburn, Chairman of the Skatepark Committee, solicited discounts from vendors and is getting another savings of approximately $12,000. City insurance will increase approximately $7,000 annually but signs will be placed at the skatepark that state the rules and regulations and also will state, "Skate at Your Own Risk." The Commission agreed to contribute the necessary $29,000 in funds in order for the skatepark project to proceed. FIRE DEPT. SUPPLEMENTAL MANPOWER PLAN Fire Chief Benton—The plan is to supply each firefighter with a pager for when they are off-duty. In the situation of a large fire or event the on -duty assistant chief will determine if assistance from off-duty firefighters is necessary. If it is determined that a call-in of supplemental firefighters is needed, the Assistant Chief will determine how many additional firefighters he needs. First priority will be to page members of the crew that just went off-duty for response. If there is not enough response from the page or the situation should worsen the next step will be to page/call-in the incoming crew.
