GREATER BAKERSFIELD CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
For those of you who were not in attendance at the GRC meeting this morning, I announced that my time with the Greater Bakersfield Chamber of Commerce is coming to and end. Friday, October 12th will be my last day as a member of the GBCC team. I have recently accepted the position of Administrative Analyst III in the Bakersfield City Manager's Office. This new opportunity brings with it mixed emotions. I am excited for this new challenge and the prospect of having a small role in the future of Bakersfield, but I will also miss the regular exchanges with the many extraordinary individuals that make up the membership of this fine organization. Being a part of the GBCC staff for the past five-plus years has been an outstanding experience, one that has been integral to my evolution as an individual and as a professional. I owe a great debt of gratitude to all of you who have shown me such strong support and encouragement over my time here at the GBCC...without it, opportunities like this would not be possible. I look forward to continuing to build upon the strong relationships I have made here and to the new relationships I will forge working for the city. With respect and appreciation, Steven L. Teglia Vice President - Governmental Affairs Greater Bakersfield Chamber of Commerce www.bakersfieldchamber.org Phone: (661) 327-4421 Fax: (661) 327-8751

Incident Name: Richfield Case No.: 07-27791
& nbsp; Date: September 20, 2007 Time: 2:47 a.m. & nbsp; Location: 1334 Richfield Avenue, Rosamond & nbsp; Type: Structure Fire Incident Commander: Company 15, Epps KCFD Resources: Engines 14 (Mojave), 15 (Rosamond), Battalion 1, Prevention 6 Assisting Agencies: California City Fire E-190, L.A. County Fire E-130 (Lancaster) Total Personnel: 13 Property Loss: $300,000 (estimated) Acres Burned: Cause: Suspected electrical fire in the attic. Incident Summary: A structure fire in Rosamond this morning challenged desert firefighters and caused extensive damage to a home. At 2:47 a.m., fire units from Rosamond, Mojave, California City and Lancaster responded to the blaze located at 1334 Richfield Avenue. When Engine 15 from the Rosamond station arrived, the 1400 square foot home was more than 40% engulfed with heavy fire coming from the garage and attic. Captain Epps of E-15 made immediate contact with the occupants of the home and was assured all were safely out of harms way. The crew then deployed fire hoses and established a water supply from a nearby fire hydrant. An aggressive attack was initiated as firefighters attempted to stop the fire from spreading to the remainder of the house. As the structure weakened, the roof began collapsing and heavy roof tiles struck several firefighters below. The flames quickly became so intense that a decision was made to use a heavy water stream flowing up to 1,000 gallons per minute. As additional units arrived the fire spread was stopped after about 20 minutes of intense firefighting. About 75% of the home and contents was destroyed along with a car and small boat. The six members of the family living at the home were awakened and alerted of the fire by a smoke alarm. Because the home was equipped with an adequate number of functioning smoke alarms providing early detection and warning, the damage caused by this fire was limited to material items and no injuries occurred. It is highly recommended that all residential structures be equipped with smoke alarms placed in all sleeping rooms and in areas near the bedrooms such as hallways and at the top of stairways. Smoke alarms must be maintained properly and batteries should be changed twice per year. Follow the maintenance advice provided by the manufacturer to ensure proper function. The family will be staying with nearby relatives. &nb sp; Inspector Tony Diffenbaugh Information Officer
