In response to Councilmember Christy's inquiry, Fire Chief Martin explained the
procedure that Firefighters follow in the event of an earthquake, noting that all fire
apparatus is immediately removed from the garage when an earthquake strikes and
a '~vindshield" survey of the City is conducted to quickly respond to any emergency
situation. This procedure was recently applied after the earthquake on October 16;
the City was surveyed within 20 minutes.
