City budget includes fire department upgrades
The 47-year-old roof at Fire
Station 4 inWestlandwill soon be
replaced.
Members of the Westland City
Council approved the new roof at
the fire station, located at 37200
Palmer Road, during their meet-
ing July 16. The station serves
residents from Hannan to
Shuman and Glenwood to
Marquette in the city. Station 4
also serves as a back up to Fire
Station 3 which serves Shuman
to Merriman and Cherry Hill to
Glenwood.
The roofing contract was
awarded to MWM Roofing Co. in
the amount of $28,370. The cur-
rent roof was installed when the
stationwas constructed in 1971.
Along with this structural
investment, the 2018-19 Westland
budget also includes funding for
a new 2018 F450 Type 1 rescue
vehicle. The new rescuewas pur-
chased with reliability, patient
comfort and safety in mind, offi-
cials said. The Westland Fire
Department receives more than
12,000 calls annually with about
83 percent relating to medical
emergencies, according to
department reports.
The new unit was purchased
through Michigan-based Mercy
Sales, utilizing consortium pric-
ing through the Farmington Hills
Fire Department. Westland
received the lowest possible
price and the more departments
that purchase through the con-
sortium results in a rebate from
the manufacturer back to the city
for added savings.
Fire department overtime for
the fiscal year 2018-2019 has also
been increased to meet the
demands for calls for service
within Westland, officials noted.
In 2015 the Westland Fire
Department received a grant for
staffing also known as Staffing for
Adequate Fire and Emergency
Response (SAFER). This
enabled the city to reduce over-
time costs and have 13 firefight-
ers funded under the grant quali-
fications. The current increase in
overtime funding guarantees
additional fire services provided
to fulfill meeting the demands of
the department.
“As Westland nears the end of
this grant period it was necessary
to increase overtime to continue
to provide the service levels
Westland residents have come to
expect anddeserve,” commented
Mayor William R. Wild. “The
approval of these crucial invest-
ments demonstrates the level of
importance we place on public
safety and we believe residents
should be afforded the best expe-
rience available from our fire-
fighters.”
Additional public safety
investments approved in July
include funding for four patrol-
men coming off of a federal
grant, the purchase of in-car
computers and tablets for the
police department along with the
purchase and outfitting of patrol-
menwithbody cameras.
Westland has approved the purchase of a new Type 1 rescue vehicle
for use in the city.
Drivers traveling along Wayne Road
between Michigan Avenue and
Glenwood could see some traffic slow-
downs as re-construction work gets
underway.
Two-way traffic will be maintained as
the work continues in the area, accord-
ing to information provided by the
Wayne County Department of Public
Services, although there may some
intermittent lane closures as work pro-
gresses.
The work on the .44-mile section will
include hot mix asphalt coldmilling and
resurfacing, concrete pavement repairs,
work along sidewalk ramps, structure
epoxy overlay, guardrail work, signage
andpavementmarkings.
The work will continue into the fall
and should be complete in November,
county officials said.

budgets, he said.
A book may need to be purchased in five
or six formats to accommodate different lan-
guages and patron preferences. “The budg-
ets haven't changed five- or six-fold. We've
had to constantly make adjustments,” he
said.
Westland still circulates mostly physical
items including print books, and DVDs
along with magazines. “We have to cater to
all these different age groups and tastes and
ethnic backgrounds,” he said.
Quiet rooms are also now needed, as
libraries offer more programs. He's pleased
the young child storytimes are both at the
library andnearbyBiggbyCoffee.
He said he didn't find surprises upon his
mid-June arrival inWestland.
“I would have to spend a lot of time lis-
tening and that's what I intend to do. I'm just
taking it all in.”
He reads The Wall Street Journal to stay
current, library journals for professional
growth, “and also a lot of international
news.”
He likes author David Baldacci, “just the
way he develops his characters, he develops
his plots.” There's a lot of research in
Baldacci's writings that the new library
director saidhe also appreciates.
Laxminarayan agrees self-published
books have helped to “democratize” book
publishing. Some very large libraries, like
New York City, even have machines to help
buddingwriters tell their stories.
Some of those writers have then
advanced through things like Amazon into
more traditional publishing venues and suc-
cess, he added.
He's had earlier stints in the Norfolk, VA,
library and then with a nonprofit library
cooperative in Columbus, OH. He had
served in various posts in India, too, with
theU.S. InformationAgency.
Will he everwrite a book of his own?
“There are so many good authors out
there. I'd rather spend my time reading,”
Laxminarayan said, adding patrons are wel-
come to greet himby his first name.
