Why is this measure important?

Fire safety inspections are critical to the well-being and safety of our community. Tracking fire safety inspection orders helps ensure buildings are compliant with fire codes, directly protecting the health and safety of residents. As the city grows, this measure becomes even more critical in preventing fire hazards and promoting public safety in homes, businesses, and community spaces.

What progress are we making?

The addition of more fire inspection officers has expanded overall inspection capacity, allowing for a greater number of properties to be assessed within shorter timeframes. This increase in staffing has also contributed to faster service delivery and a noticeable reduction in backlogs of pending inspections. Furthermore, improved follow-up procedures and tighter timelines have ensured that violations are addressed and resolved more efficiently, strengthening overall compliance with fire safety regulations.

How is this measured?

This measure indicates the number of fire safety inspection orders issued for violations of the Fire Code. This legislative mandate continued through the pandemic. Resolving these orders increases public safety and compliance with the Fire Code. The number of orders issued changes (from year to year) with the type or focus of inspection efforts.
