ECC – S. Copado presented and discussed the FY07 Radio Requests dated 12 February 2007. Speedy asked why our new requests were not addressed. Shirley said Bob Kelly was to do that but he is not here any longer, and it was not done. She said it will not happen this year, and we will have to put it back in next year if we still want the same requests. Speedy will get with Bob Taylor and Dave Zylak and discuss this matter. Shirley said when a portable is ordered, a charger has to be ordered too, or you will only receive the portable (and no charger). Speedy asked when the radio requests are made, who gets them and who sees them? It is submitted and then sent to Shirley who will put it in the Budget.
Tri-County Inter-operability meeting was recently attended, and discussed by S. Copado. Procedures have been set up and will be sent to the Chiefs for their review and comments. M. Huseman discussed the talk with Charles County (Tony Rose) and the turning ON of the required relay, or not. They agreed, it works good when it is turned ON.

RESCUE ASSN. – Missy said they cancelled the scheduled drill as they could not get enough victims for the drill.

VOL TASK FORCE – Speedy said the Vol. Task Force is still in the talking mode.

HOUSE NUMBERS –S. Nelson said the ESC is addressing the money needed for the advertising in the local papers of the need to properly post House Numbers.

CAREER TECH – S. Nelson said the Banquet is this scheduled for this Sunday at the Tech Center.

CO FIRE CHIEF – A meeting should be coming up soon on Inter County Channels. The changing of the TAC channels will be addressed by the Chiefs at a later date.

STANDARDS – Speedy Nelson discussed the hose connectors on our dry hydrants in the county as not conforming with our county standards? This will be checked into further to be sure.

OLD BUSINESS – Speedy Nelson said the effort to put our (Fire Board County) Standards On-Line is still in the works.
NEW BUSINESS – C. Craig discussed new commercial building code and the sprinklers requirement for business. She discussed a case of an Amish businessman being told he has to have sprinklers installed in their newly proposed commercial building.

So how come when I called and spoke with the manager I was told the dispatcher are not allowed to post and it is aganist their policy. Joe would not compromise his job for that. Don't think the manger would lie about how they will track to see if it is being posted from their office. My point is dispatcher are getting paid to work, not to be posting on the internet while getting paid by the county.

Thought there was more Helo's available to St. Mary's than that?

MSP Trooper 2 - Andrews AFB
MSP Trooper 7 - St. Mary's Airport
Park Police Eagle - One out of st. Mary's? One out of Bolling AFB?
Medstar - maybe has x2 available??? (1 is in Bryans Road, C.C.)
Base Military Helo's when all hell breaks loose? (they used base helo's when we did a mass cass drill a few years back, CH-53's, CH-46's)
Coast Guard Helo's for water rescues on the bay?
Not to mention more than that would show if needed.

If you want to change the way things run perhaps they should push for a trauma center here in So. Md. It would alleviate the call load to Baltimore/PG and it would also improve survival rates by reducing distance/time from scene to hospital.
