DearWayne,

MAG has been working closely with management, supervisors, employees, and Human Resources management
andstaffinthisproject.Yourofficehasprovidedextensiveinformationaboutyourcurrentcompensationsystem
and employee data. As you know, in August, MAG and HR worked together to complete employee orientation
sessions that were very well attended. Since then, 584 employees have started their online Job Analysis
Questionnaires(JAQ)and476employeeshavecompletelyfinishedthem.Ofthese,227questionnaireshavebeen
reviewed by supervisors. So, the process is moving along. We do indeed appreciate HRs help in this entire
process.

MAGhasidentifiedbenchmarkpositionsthatwouldbeincludedinthesalarysurveyportionoftheproject.These
are positions that represent various departments within the Town structure and levels within the compensation
structure. We estimate that approximately 40 benchmark positions would be used in the market survey. Those
recommendedbenchmarksarebeingidentifiedforyourconsiderationatthistime.

C. Request to Approve TAB Fund Allocation presented by
Tourism Director






TOWN OF
The White Marlin Capital of the World




TO: The Honorable Mayor, Council President and Members of Council
THRU: David L. Recor, ICMA-CM, City Manager
FROM: Donna Abbott, Tourism & Marketing Director
RE: TAB recommendation for new event funding
DATE: October 8, 2014


ISSUE(S): TAB recommends funding $500 toward a new event sponsored
by the Ocean City Museum Society - the 1
st
Storm Warriors 5K
Run/Walk for the OC Life-Saving Station Museum.

SUMMARY: TAB was recently polled for a request for $500 to help fund this
new event set for Saturday, November 8 on the Boardwalk at the
Inlet.

The Storm Warriors 5K Run/Walk is an inaugural event designed
to bring visitors and participants to the downtown and museum
on a November weekend. The Museum Society is requesting TAB
support to offset costs to run the event. TAB voted unanimously
to support this event with the amount requested.

2014 Summary
Memorial Day Labor Day
Fire Chief Chris Larmore







October 14
th
2014
Executive Summary The 2014 summer season review reflects, without ambiguity, that the
Ocean City Fire Department continues to fulfill the vision embraced by the Command Staff, as
well as its Members.
Exceptional availability and resource management of staffed EMS units continued
with a remarkable number of times we dropped under minimum staffing (9).
Call volume increased for the first time in 4 years, as a result of a busier August.
The Department provided the required personnel to ensure better coverage, with a
continued reduction in payroll costs after mandated pay incremental increases.
The Volunteer Division continued with non-compensated Duty Crews, with a
total coverage of 8,172 hours of service.
The response times continue to meet our expectations, with an average of 4
minutes 27 seconds from dispatch.
Currently, the Departments part-time compensated force has no unemployment
charges, or impacts on the A.C.A. maintaining the 1560 hour benchmarks.
There were two occasions where mutual aid departments were needed for EMS
transport ambulances. These calls were handled without any adverse effect on
patient care or outcome. Provisions have been made to prevent this reoccurrence.
The Department handled the Route 50 bridge incident professionally, with expert
planning and coordination, as discussed during the subsequent review.
The Department continues to monitor ambulance service and reliability records,
and is pleased to note a possible reversal in trend.

September 1, 2014 - Report to City Manager
Availability of staffed EMS units - Exceptional availability and resource management of
staffed EMS units continued with a remarkable number of times we dropped under minimum
staffing, yet calls for service increased. Please note that out of units is the terminology used
when a call for service depletes our minimum staffing, NOT that a subsequent call is not
handled. The Supervisor may split crews, utilize on - duty Command Staff, or Volunteers. Not
a single call was dispatched during the 2014 season that a response was not provided, although
twice outside mutual aid was notified for Ambulance transport. This speaks well of our in-place
mutual aid agreements.

The Volunteer Division continued with non-compensated Duty Crews, with a total coverage
of 8,172 hours of service. The goal is to provide a crew of 4 persons, in 12 - hour night shifts for
the 100 days of summer. Provided crews exceeded the goal by 3,372 hours.


Response times - continue to meet our expectations, with an average of 4 minutes 29 seconds

Currently, the Departments part-time compensated force has no unemployment charges,
or impacts on the A.C.A Maintaining the 1560 hour benchmarks.
Part-time staffing continues to be a challenge with the cap of allowable hours, in addition to
scheduling around their primary employers.




The Department continues to monitor ambulance service and reliability records.
With two units placed out of service for an extended period, the data does not clearly reflect the
source or specific corrective measures that can be addressed. What can be determined is the need
for a reserve fleet, and the value of the lease agreement established two years ago. We staff 7
ambulances regularly in the season, with an average of 2 out of service, often times being 3, the
need for a fleet of ten is reasonable. There were two calls where mutual aid departments were
needed for EMS transport ambulances. These two calls were handled without any adverse effect
on patient care or outcome; provisions have been made to prevent this reoccurrence.
The plan is to not release the replacement ambulance until the fall sale, rather than the spring
auction. This would give us one additional ambulance, with very little difference in residual
value at the time of sale. Additionally, we have for the last two years had an open lease to
replace units that may unexpectedly be out of service for an extended period.

The Department handled the Route 50 bridge incident professionally, with expert planning
and coordination, as discussed during the subsequent review.
The Command Staff did an exceptional job of providing immediate coverage, as well as
implementing a 24 hour plan to provide the level of coverage expected by our residents and
vacationers. The coordination with allied agencies, including but not limited to the Hospitals,
MIMS, OCPD, and the private sector was exceptional.

continue reduction of such preventable alarms.

Over Crowded Residential Occupancies Working with Zoning and Building
Department in conjunction with the PRESS Committee for enforcement and code
development strategies to address public complaints of overcrowding.

Quality Assurance Program Re-evaluating the program. The FMO is researching
computer programs and companies for potential efficiency improvements in the overall
program.
High-Rise Inspection Program The high-rise code was rewritten in 2005 with a
twelve year compliance window for the 19 specific non-sprinkled high-rises, the
inspection program has been extended to sprinkled high-rises, 17 of which have been
inspected.

Code Review and Management The State of Maryland will be going through a three
year Fire Code update cycle. The Ocean City Fire Marshal is reviewing the 2015 Fire
Codes and updates for local impact and adoption.

Liquor License Inspection Pilot Program Every year we conduct inspections for over
150 establishments with Liquor Licenses. We have recently spread the inspections out
over a twelve month, rather than a three month period in the winter/spring, to see the
establishments in operation during normal operations and to spread the work out over a
longer period of time.

E. Discussion of Runway 14/32 Pavement Maintenance Project
presented by Public Works Director

TOWN OF
The White Marlin Capital of the World





TO: The Honorable Mayor, Council President and Members of Council
THRU: David L. Recor, ICMA-CM, City Manager
FROM: Hal O. Adkins, Public Works Director
RE: Pavement Maintenance Runway 14/32
Update from August 12, 2014 Presentation
DATE: October 9, 2014


ISSUE(S): Pavement Maintenance Project Runway 14/32 (East/West Runway)

SUMMARY: Runway 14/32 was last resurfaced in the early 1980s. The current
runway surface is in need of substantial maintenance repairs to
assure its life expectancy until FY19/20 when we hope to gain
FAA/MAA Grant assistance for runway rehabilitation/reconstruction
for D/E and construction, respectively.

FISCAL IMPACT: The engineering estimate for the project is now $264,000.00. The
project would be supported by a MAA Grant at a 75/25% ratio with
a Local Match obligation of $66,000.00.

Though the potential may (emphasis on the word may) exist for a
portion of this Local Match to be available from Airport revenues, it
is recommended that the Match be allocated from Fund Balance.
Portions of the allocation could be returned to Fund Balance at year-
end if the fiscal performance of the Airport justifies such an action.

RECOMMENDATION: Proceed with acceptance of the Grant and scheduling of the repairs
for this fall via a current unit price based contract with George and
Lynch, Inc.
