date, a department inspector will call to datermine the reason. <br />If the form is not returned in a week from the telephone call, the <br />inspection will be conducted by a department inspector. <br /> <br />To control and guide the direction of the program and determine <br />its effectiveness, spot checks will be scheduled in approximately <br />10% of the businesses included in the program. Those businesses <br />receiving spot checks would be selected on a random basis or <br />because the inspection forms they returned are incomplete. <br /> <br />The self-inspection form is designed so that the answer to the <br />first eight questions should be answered in the affirmative. A <br />"yes" answer to these questions implies conformance with the fire <br />code, and therefore conformance with good fire protection <br />practices. A "yes" answer to the remaining questions indicate <br />fire hazards that require correction. <br /> <br />Included with the materials provided to the business responsible <br />is a business occupancy record. The purpose of this record is to <br />correct errors in the departments data base and obtain call out <br />information to add to the computer aided dispatch system which is <br />to be put in place by the police department. The information on <br />this record is intended to be used only for official city business <br />and in emergency situations. <br /> <br />PROPOSAL <br /> <br />That in order to compliment the other changes being made to update <br />the fire company and bureau inspection programs council adopt this <br />resolution establishing a self-inspection program. By so doing <br />the fire department will concentrate its inspection efforts on <br />the more techinically demanding occupancies, those mandated by the <br />state fire marshal's office, and those where there is a greater <br />potential for large life or property losses. Inspections would <br />therfore be broken down as follows: <br /> <br />Technical - 595 inspections performed by bureau inspectors, <br />Fire Safety - 726 performed by fire company personnel and <br />Self-inspection - 1,032 performed by business owners/managers. <br /> <br /> e~~.f~~s~ted <br />Resp u u ' <br /> <br /> B.
