CIR OF SAN BERNARD~O - REQU.QT FOR COUNCIL AC~ON
STAFF REPORT
A considerable amount of development, of all types, has occurred
during the past few years in the Southern part of the City. This
area is served by Fire Station No. 10, at the Southwest corner
of Mill Street and Arrowhead Avenue.
The response time to these areas is longer than the average afforded
to other portions of the City. An unacceptable situation is created
by the large amounts of people living, working and visiting in the
areas outside the normal response time.
After reviewing possible financing methods, it was decided that
an assessment district was the most feasible. An assessment
district was accordingly created to generate funds to finance the
cost.
The restrictions issued by the Office of Planning and Research
stipulates that only Public Works projects needed for health and
safety reasons may be constructed "South of the line,"
Construction of the Fire Station is vitally needed to provide fire
protection and paramedic service to the Southern area of the City,
We recommend that a finding be made that this Fire Station is
needed for reasons of health and safety.
URGENCY CLAUSE:
A negative declaration has been issued by the Environmental Review
Committee, and it is vital to receive approval to advertise at
the earliest possible date.
