Meetings continue for the Operations Review Committee.

The members of council are focused on breaking down every service and operation for the city to find cost savings and efficiencies.

They took a look at the Fire Department yesterday, with the presentation from Chief Grant Love.

Love says they made some changes last year which brought efficiencies, including 24 hour shifts.

Love says the 24 hour shifts are reduced from three or four day continuous shifts and he has not heard anything negative from the Fire Department.

He says even though these changes are only a year old, you always have to be willing to look at doing things better.

Love says they are also in the process of putting together a master fire plan so this review does help.
