Design work is being completed by SEH and WisDOT for the After-Hours Road bridge replacement and should be going out for bids soon . Construction is set for summer /fall of 2025. Cost is covered 100% by the infrastructure bill . The current 3 -year road plan includes black topping a half mile of Birch Ave. and Kauppi Rd. Bids will be going out for the asphalt work. Annual road inspections are scheduled for the first week of May. New priorities for a three -year plan will be set. W entala Rd needs work which will involve lowering it approximately 8 inches because of the steep side ditches. The Co-op Park Rd. h as been submitted as a DNR roa d project; we're hoping to get 90 to 100% reimbursement. H igh Landing Rd was also submitted but it's doubtful they will pave it ; hopefully we'll get gravel . Before that happens we need to get some large boulders out . Dennis Smet asked about 7-mile Rd. The heavy equipment that uses it a lot has really been tearing it up . A culvert is being replaced on Sandy Run by Trout Unlimited that should be covered 100% by them . They are currently in the alternatives evaluation but have indicated that a box culvert is probably too expensive . Garage Update: The board is evaluating two sites. One on either side of Old Hwy 2.

The number of Emergency calls remained about the same as last year at 71. These responses occupied approximately 1736 additional hours of time from our volunteers. In addition, countless volunteer hours are spent each year maintaining and testing equipment. 11 members attended a training for an Emergency Response to Pipeline Emergencies. Two members are taking the state required Emergency Medical Responder course. Eight members took the state Required CPR Refresher Class to maintain their EMR Licenses and nine members attended a Wildland Fire Refresher training. 71- Calls for assistance were received in 2024 5 - Motor Vehicle Accidents 32 - Medical Emergencies 1 - Structure Fire 4 - Wildland 18 - Mutual Aid 1- Carbon Monoxide Alarm 1- Vehicle Fire '2 - Good Intent · 3 - Landing Zones 0 - Power Line Down . 1 - Fire Alarms · 3 - Searches 54 Fire Prevention Inspections were perfmmed in 2024. All public buildings and places of employment are inspected per state requirements two times per year. There was no reportable Fire Fighter or Emergency Medical Responder injuries in 2024. We had no repmiable equipment/vehicle accidents in 2024. We did do some significant maintenance to our 19-year-old Engine #1 to keep it in compliance with NFPA Standards. We also added a new well at the fire hall allowing us to refill apparatus at the rate of 400 gallons per minute. Mutual Aid was given 18 times, many of which were landing zones set ups at our fire station for ambulances traveling through that needed aii- medical intercepts. We received Mutual Aid 2 times to assist our effmis. We are cun-ently part of an Automatic Mutual Aid Agreement that automatically dispatches firefighters from three departments to the report of a structure fire. This has greatly helped our initial response capabilities and given some relief caused by a shortage of volunteers throughout the county. A total of $96,387.00 was received in grants, payment for services, and donations in the past year. These funds were used to purchase additional Wildland Firefighting Equipment and $14,217.00 from the EMS Office being escrowed for the future purchase of EMS equipment. Major maintenance work was done to our 19-year-old Engine #1. With the assistance of our Town Clerk, we received $69,000 from the American Rescue Plan Act for a High Flow Well at our Fire Hall to fill trucks at the rate of 400 gallons per minute. In addition, we worked to fulfill the requirements of a $99,565 grant received late last year from Homeland Security to replace our 23-year-old turnout gear. As always, any match money needed was provided by the fire depaiiment. Since 1995 we have received approximately $1,305,712.00 in grants, payment for services, and donations to suppmi our depaiiment. That is an average of $45,024.55 per year that we did not need • to ask the tax payers to provide. over We acquired three new members this year and had several retire. Cunently Yve have 22 members with 11 certified and licensed as Emergency Medical Responders with an additional two new members taking the EMR Class at this time. Cu11'ently there is a move at the federal level to require a significant amount of additional training, equipment, physical fitness, and agility testing. If this moves forward it will be nearly impossible for volunteer departments nationwide to meet the additional requirements and financial implications. Fire organizations from throughout the country are opposing and demonstrating the lack of need for this. Our department has contributed documentation supp01iing that the proposed additional requirements are not needed. Our regular meetings are conducted on the first and third Tuesday of the month starting at 6:30 PM. There continue to be numerous jobs that could assist the fire depaiiment operation that do not involve emergency response. The depmiment is open to anyone that wishes to lend a hand. n and D nations Total Grants and Donations 1995 to Present $1,305,712.00 5/23/95 Cash Donations Equipment $ 172.00 6/1/95 Douglas County First Responder Grant $ 2,000.00 8/15/95 Dept. of Commerce Fire Dues $ 861.73 9/5/95 Cash Donations Equipment $ 2,445.00 9/21/95 Cash Donations Equipment $ 785.00 12/19/95 Douglas County County Land Grant $ 2,000.00 3/12/96 Waino Riders Rescue Sled $ 2,420.00 3/12/96 Lions Club Snowmobile Trailer $ 200.00 6/1/06 Douglas County First Responder Grant $ 2,000.00 7/2/96 Donation Equipment $ 250.00 8/1/96 SWL&P Extrication Equipment $ 1,000.00 8/1/96 Twin Gables Extrication Equipment $ 200.00 8/1/96 Anonymous Extrication Equipment $ 500.00 8/1/96 Lions Club Extrication Equipment $ 500.00 8/1/96 Aux Extrication Equipment $ 500.00 8/15/96 Dept. of Commerce Fire Dues $ 894.85 8/21/96 Dalhberg Light & Power Extrication Equipment $ 50.00 8/21/96 Security State Bank Extrication Equipment $ 100.00 8/21/96 Chequamegon Telephone Extrication Equipment $ 100.00 9/18/96 Lakehead Pipeline Extrication Equipment $ 100.00 9/18/96 Mary Friedlander Donation $ 100.00 9/18/96 Bayfield Electric Extrication Equipment $ 50.00 9/18/06 Janet Cismoski Extrication Equipment $ 200.00 10/14/96 Douglas County Extrication Equipment $ 4,400.00 12/3/96 HAZMAT Ford Equipment Van $ 16,300.00 12/3/96 HAZMAT SCBA Units $ 4,200.00 12/3/96 HAZMAT JT 1000 Portable Radio $ 1,253.00 12/3/96 HAZMAT HAZMAT Suits & Related Equipment $ 2,400.00 12/3/96 HAZMAT Referance Books $ 1,500.00 12/3/96 HAZMAT Cell Phone/Fax/Modem $ 835.00 12/3/96 HAZMAT Misc.
