Lodi FD reports roughly 276 inspections; Knox Box promotion and software options discussed
Summary
The department identified about 276 inspections, discussed possible exemptions for properties that pass an initial inspection, evaluated inspection-management software, and encouraged Knox Box installation for commercial buildings.
The commission reviewed the department's recent inspection work and reported approximately 276 inspections, including some that had not been completed previously. Members said the department is auditing zoning districts, coordinating with county and city information, and evaluating software options to better manage inspections.
Commissioners discussed whether certain properties that pass an initial inspection without violations could be exempt from a second annual inspection depending on state requirements and board approval. They recommended collecting metrics on inspection time and workload for the first six months and noted that ordinance language from other municipalities could serve as a model for local Knox Box and pre-plan policy updates.
