375 Apache Junction, Gold Canyon businesses to do their own fire inspections
by Richard H Dyer | Apache Junction/Gold Canyon Independent
Businesses in Apache Junction strip malls are some that will be doing self fire inspections under a new program approved Aug. 16. It includes a $20 fee for administration costs and an online or mailed form that is filled out.
The Superstition Fire and Medical District Governing Board approved the change from requiring a fire inspector or firefighters from doing the paperwork. Voting yes were Chairman Jeff Cross (by phone), Board Clerk Gene Gehrt and board members Todd House, Larry Strand and Jason Moeller (by phone).
The fire district has been working for about four years to implement a self-inspection program, Interim Fire Chief Mike Farber said at the Aug. 16 meeting of the fire district governing board.
