Tulsa Fire Department Page vii 2017 Resource Allocation Report Tulsa Fire Department Page viii 2017 Resource Allocation Report Executive Summary In July of 2015, Fire Chief Ray Driskell formed the Tulsa Fire Department Deployment Committee. The Deployment Committee was charged with producing realistic, data-based recommendations using reproducible methodologies to determine the optimal placement of the department’s current and future resources based on life risk. Following are the members of the Deployment Committee: • Deputy Chief Andy Teeter • District Chief Lee Horst • Deputy Chief Scott Clark • District Chief Nate Morgans • Chief of EMS Michael Baker • Captain Steve Shaw • Chief of Training Bryan Lloyd • Fire Equipment Operator Tim • Administrative Chief Doug Carner Kuehnert • Planning Officer Scott Nyman • Firefighter Bryan Bohbrink • Assistant Chief Doug Woods The goals of this document were: Goal 1: Fire Station Location: Use a realistic, reproducible, data-based methodology to determine the optimal placement of current and future stations based on identified life risk in the city. Goal 2: Advanced Life Support Placement: Use a realistic, reproducible, data-based methodology to determine the most advantageous current stations for placement of ALS personnel. Goal 3: Multiple Company Stations: Identify which current and future stations should house one staffed apparatus and which current and future stations should house two or more staffed apparatus based on the predominant risk and call demand. Goal 4: Staffing: During the life of the study, the citizens of Tulsa approved a dedicated public safety funding package which provided for additional firefighters. Recommendations are included in this document for the most effective use of the personnel and equipment funded by this package. Tulsa Fire Department Page ix 2017 Resource Allocation Report Summary of Recommendations: 1. Station Moves/Additions The following table shows the final recommendations for fire station moves/additions based on the scenarios and data considered in Section 1 of this report.

Ave. New staffing Unfunded Unfunded Projected need (7-10 years) Economic Development Related Far East Tulsa 2. Automatic Aid Agreement The City of Tulsa and the City of Broken Arrow should consider modifying the 2012 Mutual-Aid Agreement for Fire Protection and First Response to provide true automatic aid in far east Tulsa and ensure that the agreement is equitable and beneficial to both cities. 3. Mobile Water Supply Apparatus (Water Tenders). TFD should purchase and implement two mobile water supply apparatus. 4. Coordination with Neighboring Agencies As the City of Tulsa and other agencies make improvements to public safety infrastructure such as moving or adding fire stations or upgrading or replacing communications, agencies in the Tulsa Metro Area should work together to coordinate the provision of services to the citizens. 5. Advanced Life Support Fire Companies After consideration of data and subject matter expert review, no ALS moves are recommended for the calendar year 2017. Tulsa Fire Department Page ii 2017 Resource Allocation Report 6. Annual Review of Advanced Life Support Companies The TFD EMS Branch should conduct an annual review of first hour quintet and transfer of care data each fall and consider any needed shifts in ALS capabilities for implementation the following calendar year. 7. Additional Advanced Life Support Capabilities The TFD EMS Branch should implement additional ALS capabilities on current apparatus to address geographically significant stations. 8. Effective Firefighting Force The Deployment Committee recommends implementing Scenario 6 (Section 3 of this report) which incorporates the following: • Move/construction of Fire Stations 33, 34, 27, and 18. • Addition of a new Fire Company at Station 28 9. TFD Aerial Apparatus Upon replacement of the following apparatus, the TFD Deployment Committee recommends the following apparatus for each of Tulsa’s ladder companies: Ladders 4, 29, 31 100’+ Heavy Duty Aerial Platform/Quint Ladder 2 100’+ Heavy-Duty Aerial Ladder/Quint Ladders 7, 20, 22, 23, 27, 32 100’+ Medium-Duty Aerial Ladder/Quint (preferably single rear axle) Ladders 24, 26, and 30 60-65’Medium-Duty Aerial Ladder/Quint 10. Resilience and Redundancy Resilience and redundancy for the City of Tulsa should remain a consideration when making TFD deployment considerations. 11. Apparatus Staffing TFD should strive for four person staffing on all fire companies. Four person staffing should be prioritized as follows: a) Maintain four person staffing on each Ladder/Engine Company Tulsa’s at five fire stations that house Squad Apparatus. b) Four person constant staffing of each single-company station on the perimeter of the City. c) Four person constant staffing of each single-company station. d) Four person constant staffing of all fire companies. When considered in conjunction with recommendations from previous sections of this report and the 2016 Public Safety funds, the Deployment Committee recommends the following: Purpose Assignment # Personnel Perimeter Fire Company Staffing Perimeter/Large Coverage Area Fire Stations 33 New Fire Company Fire Station 28 12 Fire Prevention Officers Code Enforcement/Public Education 5 New Fire Company Fire Station 33 (new east station) 15 Tulsa Fire Department Page iii 2017 Resource Allocation Report Tulsa Fire Department Page iv 2017 Resource Allocation Report Table of Contents On the Cover – Tulsa Public Schools Art Contest ...................................................................................... vii Executive Summary ..................................................................................................................................... ix Table of Contents .......................................................................................................................................... v Glossary and Abbreviations ......................................................................................................................... ix Introduction ................................................................................................................................................... 1 History ...................................................................................................................................................... 2 Tulsa Fire Department Deployment Committee ....................................................................................... 4 Resource Allocation Report Goals ............................................................................................................ 4 TFD Vision, Mission, Values, and Strategies ........................................................................................... 5 TFD Scope of Service ............................................................................................................................... 5 General Information about the Tulsa Fire Department ............................................................................. 9 Past Studies ............................................................................................................................................. 12 Section 1: Fire Station Location (First-In Response) .................................................................................. 19 First-In Response Time ........................................................................................................................... 21 Fire Station Location Methodologies ...................................................................................................... 33 TFD Methodology for Fire Station Location .........................................................................................

  • 6.1.11 FINAL DRAFT 410. Olentangy Amusement Park & Lost Weekend
    Clintonville Art Walk Script – 6.1.11 FINAL DRAFT 410. Olentangy Amusement Park & Lost Weekend Records Stained Glass If you stood at the intersections of Crestview Avenue and High Street in 1893 and looked west you would have see the entrance to Olentangy Amusement Park. First opened as The Villa in 1893, residents at that time classified it as a beer garden. In 1896, the Columbus Street and Railroad Company bought the property and renamed it Olentangy Park. In 1899, the Dussenbury brothers purchased the park. They were responsible for the construction of the theater, dance pavilion and amusement rides such as the loop the loop, shoot the chutes and the whirlwind. Four roller coasters graced the park as well as a pony ride, a train ride and a carousel. The brothers purchased Fair Japan from the St. Louis Exposition. It was a village in and of itself featuring a Japanese garden, wishing bridge and tea house. In 1923, the Park was purchased by the Olentangy Amusement Company and managed by Max Stern. In 1938, L.L. LeVeque redeveloped the property into the Olentangy Village apartments which stand there today. Before you continue on, make sure to look for the blue and purple stained glass windows on the private residence next to Lost Weekend Records at 17 Crestview Avenue. Not original to the building, the glass represents the type of quirky modern embellishments you can find throughout many South Clintonville homes. 411. 1910 Bungalow at 45 East Crestview The home at 45 East Crestview was built in 1910 in the Bungalow style has and looks completely unique from other homes on the street.

Garcia, Engineer Review Level: 2 Crystal Giannopulos, Administrative Support: Senior Administrative Clerk ADA PURPOSE The Fresno Fire Department (FFD or Department) utilizes 10 and 14-foot “Fresno” Attic Ladders, 10-foot collapsible Attic Ladders and the Little Giant Velocity 13 (carried on engine apparatus) and Defender 17 (carried on aerial apparatus). APPLICATION Specifically designed for use where space is limited, the “Fresno” Attic Ladder is particularly ideal for entering attics through ceiling scuttle holes and similar close- quarter situations. The little Giant Ladders are ideal where an articulating extendable ladder unit is helpful, such as smoke detector installs, negotiating over a fence or other situations where a step ladder is needed. OPERATIONAL POLICY The Little Giant Velocity 13 (carried on engine apparatus) shall not be used on the fire ground for firefighting inside or outside of a structure. It is not National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) compliant. The Little Giant Defender 17 (carried on aerial apparatus) meets the NFPA standard for Manufacturer’s design of fire department ladders and has been tested to the requirements of NFPA standard on use, maintenance, and service testing of in- service fire department ground ladders. With such certifications and testing, the Little Giant Defender 17 can be used on all fire ground operations. Section 304.007 Page 1 of 24 OPERATIONAL GUIDELINE Fresno Attic Ladder The shoulder carry method is used with the 10-foot and 14-foot “Fresno” Attic Ladder when there is sufficient room to maneuver.
