Fire Chief Stevens reported to the Milan City Council on Jan. 16 that the department logged 1,331 service calls in 2023, a slight increase from 1,250 calls in 2022. The chief provided staffing updates and discussed department goals for the coming year; the minutes summarize those staffing remarks but do not list specific personnel changes or timelines.
The department report was presented as part of the mayor, council and staff reports portion of the agenda. The council did not take formal action on the report during the meeting; it was entered into the record as the department's 2023 annual calls report. For further details on staffing or response metrics, the city’s fire department or the city clerk should be contacted.
The minutes record the 2023 call total verbatim and note the modest year-over-year increase, but they do not include detailed breakdowns (response times, call types, or station-level staffing figures) in the transcript text supplied.
