The Council was interested in instituting the Canine Program that had been proposed 2 10 and deleted from the budget.

Acting Chief of Police Connolly reported that possible at Mid -Year he would be coming to the Council with a proposal on the Pound Fees. Mr. Connolly said he does not presently have a firm base figure from which to conduct a study. FIRE Fire Chief Teague said that he would like to make a statement prior to going into _ the Fire Department Budget. Fire Chief Teague began by saying he had brought two staff members with him, as the Council is aware he will be retiring, and the Staff members will be the ones work- ing with the budget proposed. Chief Teague stated that he definitely and strongly feels that the Council must take a serious look at construction of a fire station in the southeast part of the City. Mr. Teague said with the multiple type of buildings and close type of building at the mouth of Reche Canyon and at the Cooley Ranch, the City needs to address itself to providing the people in these areas with adequate fire protection. Chief Teague stated that it would take about 8 - 9 additional men to man a new station and con- struction of the facility would be approximately 2 - 3 hundred thousand dollars, and that they would get by with existing fire equipment. Discussion followed on the Walin & Barton Road Fire Station site, other proposed sites, relocation of the Rancho Station to a site further west to meet future ex- pansion of that area, overlapping running distances by existing fire station loca- tions. Acting City Manager Elliott stated that Mr. Jim Cox of Birr, Wilson & Company is preparing a proposal to present to the City Council in regards to financing of a fire station and this will be forthcoming.
