-
CL1 Page 12If practical, no Board of Director with the SCSD should serve as a volunteer firefighter (and vice versa) with either fire station.
-
CL2 Page 12The Board of Directors should not micromanage either fire department. This task is the responsibility of the designated Fire Chief and the District’s General Manager.
-
CL3 Page 12The Board of Directors should remember that the only place that they have any authority is in a formal session (advanced notice required), and minutes of that session should be approved and published by the board.
-
CL4 Page 12All District personnel must follow the designated line of authority, including the SCSD Board of Directors. The applicable lines of authority should be incorporated into the District’s rules and regulations. Failure to follow those pertinent rules and regulations should result in disciplinary (administrative) action against the violator. The Committee would like to take this opportunity to compliment all the SCSD officials and staff for their straightforwardness in their numerous discussions with Committee members throughout the investigative process. The members of this Committee look forward to the full Grand Jury accepting their recommendations as stated above. 6/15/2005 HEALTH & WELFARE COMMITTEE 2004-2005 Imperial County Civil Grand Jury Subject: Youth During an investigation of the Salton Community Services District by the Health & Welfare Committee of the 2004-2005 Imperial County Civil Grand Jury, we were made aware of a minor, under the age of 18, who was responding to fire department and medical aid calls. This minor has a department radio, badge and full fire gear. It was also apparent he was not attending school on a regular basis because of the amount of time he apparently spends at the fire station. The Committee felt this was child endangerment as well as a liability for the fire department and the County. One of the problems we encountered was that the West Shores High School is located in Imperial County, but the school is under the “umbrella” of the Coachella Valley Unified School District in Riverside County and that the minor lives in Imperial County. The Director of Child Welfare and Attendance for the Coachella Valley Unified School District was informed of the situation and he stated he would look into the matter.
