5 2018 ACHIEVEMENTS Fire Services Fire Prevention officers partnered with Snuneymuxw First Nation to complete a door-to-door campaign on IR#1 to test and install smoke alarms. Fire crews expanded their door-to-door campaign for testing and installing smoke alarms to a further 1,000 homes in the areas where more house fires occur. As part of day-to-day response, fire crews verified and tested over 100 smoke alarms and installed more than 50 new smoke alarms Aug 31 Benchmark 90% 77.4% Aug % 96.63% 77.4% Firefighters completed Hazardous Material Operations refresher training which provides them the knowledge and skills to respond to incidents and identify the products, isolate the product and determine evacuation zones based on the materials. Took delivery of a replacement rescue boat for inland waters inside the City of Nanaimo. Selected project manager (owner s representative) and Architectural firm for the Fire Station #1 rebuild. This multi-year project began in 2018 and will be funded by borrowing of up to 16.9 million approved by Council and electoral assent. participated in approximately 300 Community events, station tours and public relations interactions to educate the public on fire and emergency safety programs. Projected to complete 1,900 fire and life safety inspections on commercial and public buildings. Projected to provide Bystander CPR to over 700 citizens, engaged all Nanaimo high-schools. TOTAL INCIDENT RESPONSES * 6,704 7,019 7,180 7,733 8,795 9,664 8,251 * 2018 Projection Arrival of First Unit on Scene at Emergency Incidents within 6:00 minutes Arrival of Full Alarm Assignment at Emergency Incidents Arrival within 10:00 minutes In 2018, BC Emergency Health Services reconfigured their response requirements for first responders. As a result, has had nearly a 50% reduction in overall medical aid calls. These calls were ones BC Emergency Health Services determined a lower acuity and not requiring a first responder in addition to an ambulance. The overall impact to the fire rescue department is a reduction in duplicate incidents and over-resourced incidents. Fire and public assist calls continue to remain consistent with previous years. Emergency Management Updated Emergency Response and Recovery Plan Working with Public Works to formalize a department operations centre for emergencies Fourteen training courses for City staff and two table top exercises Up to August call-outs for ESS Assisted 37 adults, 3 Children and 13 Pets Supported RDN in with wildfire in EOC as well as provided ESS 5

6 KEY CHALLENGES FOR 2019 Fire Services Administrative capacity - Resourcing and decreased administration and exempt staff, through attrition. One exempt chief was removed from the organization in 2015, a second exempt chief was removed from the organization at end of It is a challenge to continue compliance and strategic planning, with limited resources. Maintaining compliance with NFPA standards for response times of first arrival, with increased call volumes, due to City population growth and expansion. Fire Operations resources - There has been an emphasis, since the early 2000 s, to increase the number of firefighters, to achieve four-member engine response. In 2015 Council directed staff to implement a minimum of four-member engine staffing. Resourcing for increased numbers of fire inspections and compliance for plan approvals, fire safety plans, building permit approvals and plan checking of commercial and public occupancies required under the Fire Services ACT, BC Fire Code, and BC Building Code. - As the city grows, staffing has continued to be an issue. Fire Station #1 rebuild maintaining business continuity of communications, operations and emergency operations centre during demolition and construction phases. - Increased sickness related to workplace injuries, including stress-related injuries are more common. Non-occupational injuries, requiring longer recovery times, are also common. Emergency Management - NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) 1710 standards require a minimum of 14 members at a single-family residential structure fire to conduct operations. Currently, a minimum of 16 firefighters are on duty at any given time. This does not leave additional resources to respond to any other incident duration, without jeopardizing safety, and compliance to the standard and industry best practices. Profile of division needs to be elevated internally and externally. Due to organizational changes, ECC has capacity issues and lack of trained staff. Will take a few years to train and regain capacity. Division has one employee and minimal budget. No transfer of knowledge and limited by lack of resources. City is responsible to fund emergencies up front. - There is a decline in paid on call firefighter (POC) participation; decreasing POC attendance over the past few years. An increase in training standards and time commitment is required by on-call staff, to comply with provincial requirements and minimum standards. 6 City of Nanaimo 455 Wallace Street
