Environmental Committee: Harrisburg Fire Department

9/23/2021

Comments

 
Note: A copy of the Sept. 2021 email sent to the Harrisburg NAACP Environmental Committee follows. Edited for brevity.

<Redacted>,
 
I did read the article that <Committee Member> sent on behalf of <General Member>. I'm interested in the state's current status with the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative under partisan opposition. Whoever fills the vacancies will be pivotal in the state's fight against human-induced climate change, and what I think will be,,, municipalities privatizing public utilities during the COVID recovery.
 
As a follow-up to last month's general meeting, I sent the following email to the fire department today:
 
<Redacted> and the Bureau of Fire:
 
My name is Jubalyn, and I'm part of the Environmental Committee for the Harrisburg NAACP.
 
A couple of branch members have expressed concern for the potential hazard of firecrackers popped by youth alongside or nearby their homes. Is it feasible for the Bureau to pilot a program for kids and kids-at-heart to pop... firecrackers on [predetermined] days in designated locations during warm-weather months?
 
Secondly, the focus of my term as... Committee chair is non-arson residential fires in the city. For informational purposes, would you tell me the number of documented residential fires (particularly, non-arson) ... over the last three years?
 
[Due to] inquiries from residents, the president requested in [tonight's] executive meeting that I find out the process for tenants to file legitimate complaints against their landlords. I have yet to give up on the Greater Harrisburg United Tenants Association, [and] I emailed them the following message two days ago:
 
GHTU,
 
I'd like to volunteer for the helpline one or two days each month. I also left a voicemail at XXX-XXX-XXXX this afternoon. Please indicate your interest (or not) within two weeks (Oct. 5) so I can accommodate my schedule.
 
As always, your thoughts are welcome and appreciated.

The founding Environmental Committee of the Harrisburg NAACP popularizes awareness for fire safety & prevention in the City of Harrisburg. Upon its formal conception in March 2021, the Committee has been developing a free educational product for young learners about non-arson house fires.
