CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO—REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
In Support/Opposition
From: Chas A. Kelley M/CC Meeting Date: 07/02/2012
Prepared by: Cheryl Weeks, (909) 384-5188
Dept: Council Office Ward(s): All
Subject:
Fire Department Staffing Efficiencies
Financial Impact:
None.
Motion: Adopt Fire Department Staffing Efficiencies
Svnopsis of Previous Council Action:
None.
Background:
Given the recent budget shortfalls that the City Manager's Office has shared with the City
Council, it is imperative that the Council review all options to close the budget gap. In addition
to the shortfall in revenue, the City Manager's Office has advised the Council that we are in a
poor position financially, which may compromise the delivery of service to our residents.
Therefore, it is prudent that we look at every avenue to provide efficient service delivery to our
residents with cost-effective results and adopt the Fire Department Staffing Efficiencies.
FIRE DEPARTMENT STAFFING EFFICIENCIES
Recently the fire Chief delivered a budget proposal to the city Council that would drastically cut
essential services to the citizens of San Bernardino. After several meetings and gathering of
information, the following proposal will have the least impact on service delivery to the
community and still provide reasonable response times to emergencies from fire suppression
personnel. The proposals listed below would save the City of San Bernardino approximately
$50,000.
1. Eliminate the Cadet Program, and utilize the Explorer Program to achieve the "proposed
goals of the Cadet Program"at no cost to the tax payer or the City.
2. Reassign the three daytime Administrative Chiefs to shift duty(48/96 schedule), where
r they would assume their current duties.

3. Temporarily leave the following positions vacant through attrition, until such time the
City can afford to fill the positions: Deputy Chief,Division Chief,and Fire Marshal.
4. Vacancy through attrition of the Disaster Preparedness position.
5. Eliminate the Public Education Position.
It is important to recognize that this proposal identifies savings in the area of non-critical
elements within the City's Fire Department, so that there will be no impact to the emergency
service delivery to the citizens of San Bernardino.
The proposed sharing of responsibilities and workload is not desirable by any means,but these
cost-saving items need to be adopted PRIOR to any discussion of reducing service delivery to
the community.
