SJI Fire District, February 11, 2025

The appointment of Board Chair and Vice Chair will take place at the March 11 meeting, which will start at 2:30 pm to allow a study session on commissioner roles.

 

The Commissioners asked the chief not to renew the current Interlocal Agreement (ILA) with SJIEMS which expires on March 1, 2025, and to negotiate a new agreement with a more balanced relationship. 

 

Chief Monin is working with the Port to find a future public safety and firefighter training site.  One site in discussion is on Cattle Point Road near Golf Course Road. A training site on the island could improve local insurance ratings; prevent the district from being short-handed when personnel are sent off-island for training; and possibly allow fire districts on other islands to train in-county.  

 

Stuart Island West is discussing lease terms with the school district for placing a fire station on School District 149 property. Repair of the storm damage to Station 35’s roof and other improvements are underway. The Hannah Heights Homeowners Association has found a site other than Station 33 for their six-month trial of a process to eliminate PFAS from their water.

 

The district is seeking an Interlocal agreement with SJC Coroner’s office. An engine bumped into a pillar at headquarters; both will need repair.  Chief Monin submitted a twelve-point draft outline to start the process of developing a new strategic plan and the commissioners discussed the need for community involvement.
