The membership gave Al and his committee a well deserved round of applause. Al thne brought up a sour note. It seems that some of the Depart ment members have been giving the band members a hard time about being paid.

Bill moved that the Department purchase on a 50/50 basis new jackets to be de livered by January 1, 1988.

If the alarm blows, please make that extra effort to make the call. We are getting too complaisant on answereing or calls. Some day when we think it is a junk call we are going to get caught with our britches down. As of October 1st, no members will ride on the tail board of the trucks. We will use 347 and 348 to transport the extra manpower. On January 1, 1988 only OSHA approved helmets will be worn and no firefighters with beards will enter a building with a Scott Air Pack. August was a busy month with 42 alarms. We averaged 22 members at a call. This is not enough members at a call. Everyone should responu.

Alton and West Vally have sub mitted bids to be opened October 12, 1987. The money received will go to the Village and be put into the Fire Department budget for excess money for equipment needed. Tom thanked everyone for the excellent job at Tropel. He thanked Scott Copp and Bill Evans for the exceptional tasks they performed at this incident. Pete Kenney stated that we responded to thirty (30) calls the past month. He noted that we had three (3) MVAs in one week. Pete noted tah a full scale drill will be held at the Baptist Home on the 24th of October. He asked the members to plan on attending. Mike Derleth quetioned when 344 was going to be back in service ?. Pete noted that some paint work still had to be done. The parts sent out to be refinished would be returned at a later date. This would not hold the truck up from going into service when the painting is done. He stated that the fron t of the truck was not painted due to the gold leafing and paint was still in good shape. If the paint does not match, the front will be painted. The work done the truck by the Department and the DPW has saved the Village about $12,000.00. Fittings for the new leather helmets will be Thursday evening. The member will pay fifty percent (50%) and purchase his own shield. Ray Siegfred questioned if the helmet would then belong to the member. Peter answered that the helmet would belong to the member. Cliff Palmer questioned if the leather helmet deal was necessary. Don't the Village provide the members with the best available. Cliff made it known that we are spending money faster that it is comming in. Several of the members responded that it was the personal prefer ence of the members on the leather style helmet. Many of the members had leather helmets that have been ruled unsafe by OSHA. Pete Kenney noted that this was a one time deal and the members woulc pay $105.00 for his share plus the cost of his shield. The extra money that the helmet would cost the Village will come from the money received for the brush truck. 50/50 Winners; Gordie Chapel, Vin Kennelley and David Gutzmer. Fred Peck then applauded Al Scheuer for his response to the letter sent to the members. Fred then related to some problems he has ha in recent months pertaining to riding the trucks. Tom Santillo told Fred he should of come to the Chief with his problem at that time and Fred answered he tried to, but the Chie was not around at that time. Scott Copp suggested that Fred was out of order and this problem should be taken up by the Chiefs and pre(j Fairport Fire Department October 5, 1987 Chiefs Report: Pete Kenney stated that if the bickering that was going on in the Department keeps up, no one will want to assume a officers position. Pete noted that elections are comming and if anyone thinks they can do the job better, run for that office. Al Scheuer stated that it was not his intention to take pop shots at anyone. He was only venting his own feelings and he felt that we were a good fire department. Mike Protz suggested that the letter had it's good and bad paoints. It did accomplish something. It started to get some of the problems out in the open. President Fitzgerald then introduced two (2) nwe members. Kevin O'Brien and Paul Feeley. The meeting was adjourned at 9:25pm on a motion by Paul Feeley and a second by Shawn McCarthy. Rool Call showed 56 members present, 15 excused, 29 absent and 4 in the Military Service. Respectfully Submitted, Donald H. Fox Secretary ®lie (Sire ^Department $i(layc nf JFairpnrt Office of the Chief POST OFFICE BOX 66124 FAIRPORT, N.Y. 144 50-6000 Fellow Firefighters; There is problem growing in the fire department that is of great concern to the Chiefs and Presidents. The problem is the lack of concern for the fire department by its members. When we joined the fire department we all joined to provide a valuable service to the conniunity by protecting their lives and property from fire or accident, something we as a fire department have been doing for 110 years with great pride. In recent years the number of people joining the fire department has declined. In addition, there is an alarming decline in response of the members of the department to calls, drills, and work details. For that reason there is more of a burden put on the rest of us to maintain the service that the community has come to expect. As firefighters we have a responsibility to the Fairport Fire Department in many different ways. r First, we must respond in all emergencys when possible to make sure that all of the necessary equipment responds. Each truck should be manned with a qualified driver, officer, and a crew of trained firefighters to do the job that is expected of them. Second, we have drills to take part in. these drills include weekly, as well as some special, drills that are needed to accomplish the training that is required. The officers try to plan drills so that everyone can ccme away with a little more experience at the end of the drill; but lack of attendance at drills hinders the officers because there aren't enough people to complete the drill as they have planned. Third, work details are an important part of the fire department. 'rtiey are needed occasionally to do something for the department that otherwise might not get done. Without everybody's help, the burden is placed on a few people to get the job done. One very important work detail is the Annual Fund Drive. The Fund Drive brings in a great deal of money to the fire department to be used for many things that we may take for granted, but the Fund Drive is a big job for the few people who take the time to come around to help. Help is needed everyday during the Fund Drive, not by a few people, but by everybody. If you listen to the treasurer's report every month, you know that a fire department is an expensive operation to run. With everyones help, we will be able to maintain our current level of spending. If not, budgets will have to be adjusted to coincide with the departments incane. DE LAND HOSE CO., FAIRPORT HOOK & LADDER CO., FAIRPORT PROTECTIVE ASSOC, NO. 1, INC. NO- «. INC. N°- b ,NC 1877 1881 1888 All this doesn't mean that we can't have fun in the process of doing our jobs; but we must remember that the day we receive our turnout gear and radios, there is a great deal of work that go with them. We hope when you finish reading this letter, you will think about your reponsibility to the fire department and come around when we need you, because we really do need you. Sincerely; Peter Kenney Chief Fairport Fire Department. John Fitzgerald Preident Fairport Fire Department. ts/pk,jf Fairport Fire Department November 2, 1987 The meeting for November of the Fairport Fire Department was called to order by it's President, Jack Fitzgerald at 7:08pm.

Koval, foreman, dies at 59 William H. Koval was hoping to retire next September from his position with Fairport Electric to spend more time with his newborn granddaughter and, possibly, to move to Florida, but he will never have the chance.

Koval, a well-known member of the community, worked for the Fairport Municipal Commission for 26 years. He was also a member of the Fairport Fire Department for 25 years. “He was jovial, friendly, and had an affection for country music,” recalled Fairport General Manager Robert Vaisey, who knew and worked with Koval for 38 years. “He was just a Continued on Page 6 William H.

He was laid to rest following a 9 a.m. Mass Friday at the Church of the Assumption. Koval was born May 17, 1929, in Avon, N.Y., and was reared on the family’s farm.

He was drafted shortly after their marriage and served for two years in the U.S. Army’s 81st Airborne during the Korean War, but didn’t see action. After serving two years of Stateside duty, Koval returned to Monroe Coun ty, settling in Henrietta. There he worked as a lineman for R.E. Tanner, a subsidiary cont) for Rochester Gas and Electric. In 1962, after a request fro:J friend Vaisey, Koval started work a lineman for Fairport Electric.
