Fire Marshal Donahue reported to the Norwalk Fire Commission on July 15 that the department completed 175 inspections in June covering 2,089 units and carried out 15 investigations related to code issues and hazards. Donahue said the division conducted 30 plan reviews that generated about $2,500 in income for the month and performed 10 multisite inspections totaling 1,480 inspections at those sites (transcript phrasing: “Mega Multis were 10 sites for a total of 1,480 inspections there”). He also noted public‑education activity including the City Hall employee safety fair where staff brought a fire extinguisher simulator and pamphlets. Donahue told commissioners that the division is onboarding three new deputy fire marshals who will attend the state fire marshal school in September and that new inspection software has improved productivity on both commercial and residential inspections. Ending: The commission had no further questions and Donahue said inspections and plan reviews are proceeding; cause investigations for the June structure fires remain with the fire marshal’s office.
