The Public Safety function handles all aspects related to citizen protection and is made up of the Police
and Fire Services. The largest expenditure in public safety is personnel, which will increase by
$1,029,388 due to vacancy savings being transferred to the Non-Departmental for the self-insurance fund
in FY 2017-18. Prior to the transfer, the personnel services increase was $186,806 and is related to the
market adjustments and the 2% step plan as discussed in the personnel section. In the Fire Department,
funds have been included for a replacement vehicle, replacement fire pumper, a new vehicle,
replacement thermal imagining cameras, and respiratory fit machine. FY 2017-18 included one-time EMS
funding for replacement chest compression devices and adding power lift devices which has been
removed for FY 2018-19.
