The council approved a statement of work with a safety and loss‑control services provider to assess the city’s current safety program, identify gaps, and recommend policies and training the city should adopt. Staff said the first phase — a written assessment and recommendations — would not exceed $1,500 and is intended to support compliance and mitigation (including OSHA follow‑up on a recent incident).
Supporters emphasized that the council must act on the report’s recommendations and ensure accountability at supervisory and employee levels. The motion to approve the statement of work passed unanimously on roll-call.
