Santaquin council approves LIV inspection vault to track fire system compliance
Summary
The City Council voted to adopt LIV, a third‑party digital vault that lets inspectors upload fire suppression and alarm test records so staff can more easily flag noncompliant systems; staff said the service carries no direct cost to the city and businesses pay inspector fees.
Santaquin — The Santaquin City Council on Oct. 7 approved the use of LIV, a third‑party digital vault that will store fire suppression and alarm test reports and flag deficiencies for city staff.
Ryan, a city staff member overseeing public safety files, told the council LIV will let inspectors upload sprinkler and alarm test records and automatically identify businesses that fall out of compliance, freeing staff from maintaining spreadsheets. "This system will help us greatly track it," he said, adding that only two authorized city users will have access. Staff said inspectors or businesses pay small uploading fees and there is "no cost to the city."
Council members asked about costs and functionality before moving to approve the resolution. One councilmember said he had discussed LIV with staff and was "very supportive" and "willing to make a motion to approve it." The motion passed with unanimous 'Aye' votes from the members present.
The council cited other Wasatch Front cities using similar digital inspection systems and said the platform will help ensure required annual inspections under the International Fire Code are documented and remedied when deficiencies appear. The city will proceed to implement LIV and limit administrative access according to staff recommendation.
No implementation timeline beyond staff comments was presented at the meeting.
