From Mike Jones NEWS FROM THE 2nd DISTRICT
Chief of Police Rick Vilcek is
retiring in January. Chief Vilcek has served 43 years in the Police
Department. Raised through the ranks, from Patrolmen to Chief.The Commission on
Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA) was initially created in
1979 to develop a set of management and operational standards designed to
promote increased professionalism within the law enforcement community. To
achieve accreditation status, agencies must comply with four hundred
and sixty (460) stringent standards governing virtually all management,
administration, and of policing and
service to the community. The Richmond Heights Police Department received Accreditation on December 6, 2008
and was reaccredited in Nov. 2011.
We have the lowest crime rate for sometime under Chief Vilcek's
leadership. Rick is a board member of the Richmond Heights Historical
Society. He was raised and still lives in Richmond Heights. I, along with many
others, wish him well in the years to come. I am sure we have not seen nor
heard the last from Rick. His love for our city will guide him to help in
anyway to keep our city number one.
ST. PETERS, MO (KTVI - FOX2now.com)--
One person is dead after an early morning crash in St. Peters, Mo involving a fire truck. Part of Westbound Interstate 70 was closed for several hours. The highway reopened just before 5 a.m. Thursday morning.
The crash happened around 12:15 a.m. on I-70 near Mid Rivers Mall Drive exit. The Missouri Highway Patrol says troopers and fire crews from Central County Fire and Rescue were working a relatively minor accident when a pick up truck going west on I-70 slammed into the back of a fire truck.
A Patrol spokesperson says the driver of the truck was killed. No one else was seriously hurt although a couple of fire fighters were taken to the hospital to be checked out.
Right now, it is unclear why the truck did not stop in time. The name of the victim has not yet been released.

The firings of four command-level officers have split the
Monarch Fire Protection District board and led to accusations of union cronyism
by some district residents. The four officers — Assistant Chief Les Crews,
Deputy Chief Cary Spiegel and Battalion Chiefs Fred Goodson and Mike Davis —
were fired Tuesday by the fire district board, which blamed them for creating a
hostile work environment for four female employees.

Is Wellston Fire Chief Top Choice for Monarch Fire?
 |
| Tom Vineyard |
Tom Vineyard, chief of Mid-County Fire Protection District of St. Louis County, was identified Friday by Concerned Taxpayers, in a blog on the group's website as Monarch's top choice to replace current and retiring Chief Chip Biele.
Monarch's board of directors would not confirm chief search information but in an email to Patch,apologized to Vineyard and others mentioned inConcerned Taxpayers blog.
Chief Vineyard was not available by phone Monday, according to a person who answered the phone at Mid-County FPD.
Monarch has known for nearly a year that Biele was going to retire by January 1, and the 3-member board of directors voted to finance an executive search by firm Grant Cooper & Associates, for a new chief.
Monarch has 125 employees, five firehouses and covers 55 square miles, based in Chesterfield. The 2011 budget appeared to total about $22 million, with revenue from taxes on residential and commercial property, and personal property.

Dear Friends & Neighbors,
Daylight Saving Time ends this Sunday as we "fall back"
and set clocks back one hour. This is also a great time to check the things
that keep us safe and ready for emergencies.
Smoke Detectors - Check and replace batteries if needed and make sure the devices
around your house are working properly. The U.S. Consumer Products Safety
Commission estimates that about 16 million homes in the country have smoke
alarms that do not work. In most cases, the batteries are dead or missing.
Nearly 2,700 people die and more than 15,000 are injured each year because of
fires that started in their homes.
Carbon Monoxide (CO)
Detectors - Make sure you have working CO Detectors in your home. According
to the Centers for Disease Control, carbon monoxide is the leading cause of
accidental poisoning deaths in the United States
Emergency Kits - Everyone should have a basic emergency kit in their home with
supplies such as food and water to last you and your family for at least three
days. Other items like a battery-powered or crank radio, flashlights and a
first aid kit should also be included. Daylight Saving Time is a perfect time
to get a kit - and if you already have a kit, to check it to make sure food and
other items are not near or past their expiration dates.
Wednesday, November 9 at 1:00 p.m.- The U.S. Department of Homeland Security's Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) will conduct the first nationwide test of the Emergency
Alert System (EAS) and may last up to three and a half minutes. On November
9, the public will hear a message indicating that "This is a test."
The audio message will be the same for both radio and television. A Nationwide
EAS Test will help the federal agencies and EAS participants determine the
reliability of the system and its effectiveness in notifying the public of
emergencies and potential dangers nationally and regionally.
Wise
Avenue Project: As you are aware, the
City is scheduled to rebuild Wise Avenue from Big Bend east in 2012. MSD
has notified us that they have scheduled a sewer replacement project for this
area in 2013. Such a project would damage our newly rebuilt street.
Staff is working with MSD and East West Gateway Council of Governments (TIP
Grant Administrator) on a solution. We may need to postpone the project
to coincide with the MSD work in 2013. I will update you further as we determine
possible solutions.
Operation Food Search: It is time again for the Operation
Food Search Fall Food Drive in Richmond Heights. Employees invite you to
help feed the hungry by sharing canned goods, cereals and other food
items. Collection barrels are available in the lobbies at City Hall, The
Heights, the Library, Public Works and the Public Safety Building. Please give
generously as area food banks are really in need this year. Collections
will be around through November 18.
Friday, November 18 at 5:45 p.m.: - Holiday Lighting Ceremony at THE HEIGHTS
Leaf Vacuuming Schedule: Please find attached 2011-12
Richmond Heights Leaf Schedule. Remember, placing leaves in the gutter is
against the law. Leaves could catch fire when you park your car over them,
and they stop up the sewers. Our Police will ticket you for this. (Just a
reminder).
I leave you as always, if I can be
of any help to you or yours please call or e-mail me. Please share this
newsletter with your neighbors. If you know of anyone who would like to be
added to the list of readers, please have them call or drop me a note. Your
e-mail address will be kept confidential and it will not be sold, disclosed to
others, or used for unsolicited mass mailings (spam). The Quality of Life in
our Neighborhoods is what makes our City special. Thank You for giving us
the opportunity to serve you on the City Council. The 2nd District rocks
because of you, the greatest residents any city can have.

Guilty of great service
Brentwood Fire Chief Bob Niemeyer is guilty only of giving his men the best of everything, including 100 percent of himself. His love for his job, his total accessibility and his unwavering commitment to his men and his community make the Brentwood Fire Department one of the most highly recognized and respected fire departments in the community. As a former captain with the Maplewood Fire Department, I can say I've never known a more honorable man. His presence in the fire service has provided many firefighters, including me, with stability in unstable situations. He will be missed. His courage, guidance, leadership and experience all are irreplaceable.

What shame that a resignation was forced from a man who has been such an inspiration to his peers and community. I regret losing the service of such a great man.

Chief White Out
The Mehlville Fire Protection District Board of Directors voted unanimously in a closed meeting Wednesday to accept the resignation of Mehlville Fire Chief Tim White.
The resignation comes after White was placed on forced administrative leave from June 13 to Wednesday of this week, MFPD Board Chairman Aaron Hilmer said.
“It was an amicable thing. Tim White and the board disagreed about the future direction of the district,” Hilmer said. “After lengthy discussion, we both came to the same conclusion, we both decided to amicably part ways."
Assistant Chief Brian Hendricks will step into the roll of interim chief and Deputy Chief Training Officer Dan Lafata will temporarily take over assistant chief duties. Hilmer said Hendricks has been with the district approximately 12 years.
White, who has been employed by the district since June of 1985, will receive nine months pay and benefits and a $15,000 education stipend if he wants to pursue another education direction, Hilmer said. He added that the severance package would not cost the district additional expenses and was in line with other packages given to early retirement employees.
White made $127,665.33 in total compensation and benefits in 2009, according to the MFPD website, and has been serving as the chief since April of 2009. He was promoted to administrative chief and served alongside former chief Jim Silvernail until Silvernail’s contract expired in April 2010.
“This wasn’t based on anything that happened,” Hilmer said. “It was more where we were going to go with the district. I certainly respect White’s vision. It just wasn’t something the board agreed with.”
Hilmer said the board wasn't going to rush to find a new chief.
“We have such a tremendous administrative staff now, the district should continue to run just fine,” he said. “I don’t foresee it being any kind of rush process.”
Hilmer said White and the board started disagreeing after the April election in which Hilmer was re-elected. Prior to the election, Hilmer said the chief was doing an "epic job of working for residents."
“After elections settled down, we asked, ‘Where are we going to be?’ and it became clear that we were clashing,” Hilmer said. “I think he’s going to have other possibilities to pursue and we wish him well in those endeavors."
"The fire district is better off than it was before he was chief. There have been a lot of positive things that have happened.”

From The Brentwood Patch
Brentwood fire chief Bob Niemeyer has announced his retirement after serving the city he grew up in for more than 49 years.
Niemeyer, 70, will retire on Sept. 17. He'll be succeeded by Ted Jury, fire chief of the Ladue Fire Department. The announcements were made during a Brentwood Board of Aldermen meeting on Monday night.
Niemeyer, who has worked as fire chief for the past 29 years, is a lifelong Brentwoodian who has strong ties to the community.
"He always wanted to be a fireman," Mayor Pat Kelly said. "He's a great person—as a fire chief and friend."
In May, Niemeyer informed the city that he planned to retire. The city's Public Safety Committee asked Jury to help with the search to find a replacement, but Jury indicated his interest in the position.Instead of creating a search committee, the city began negotiating a contract with Jury in early June.
Kelly said Jury—who has worked in Ladue for 29 years—has become very familiar with the Brentwood Fire Department through mutual aid, where Brentwood firefighters assist Ladue on fire calls and vice versa.
"He knows our men. He's highly respected," Kelly said.
Jury's start date hasn't been established yet, but he'll likely begin before Niemeyer's retirement date, Kelly said.

Brentwood Chief Announces Retirement
Brentwood Fire Chief Bob Niemeyer announced his retirement from the Brentwood
