New Business:
1 – Discuss Ocean Rescue Staffing Levels:
Wanda
Doyle – Ms Williams sent an e-mail stating she received information that the Lifeguards were overworked.
Chief Sasser – We have 48 total Lifeguards to draw from, no overtime.
I have
received no complaints on the amount of hours worked, no double shifts, on a rescue there are 4 guards in the water and the mobile rescue mule is in route to the scene. The information
received in the e-mail is not correct.
City Manager will follow-up with Ms Williams who submitted the e-mail.
Wanda Doyle – I have received information that Fire Department Non- Subscribers
are receiving fire service.
Diane Schleicher – We may need an ordinance that states Fire Service fee will be provided to Non- Subscribers to cover the cost of equipment and personnel.

Diane Schleicher – Presented a sample sigh to the Committee, theses

more signs to warn of every hazard.
