wmlbereas, fire deaths due to smoke inhalation outnumber fire deaths
due to bums by more than two to one; and
Bbereas, smoke detectors are our first line of defense ag<.inst fire; and
mlbereas, research shows that having a smoke detector cuts our risk of
dying in a fire nearly in half, and
Dbereas, even though 90% of u.s. homes have at least one smol~e
. detector, estimates show that about one-third of all homes that
have fires have smoke detectors that are not working, usually
because of dead or missing batteries; and
wmtbertl1s, the National Fire Alarm Code requires smoke detectors
out~de each sleeping area and on each level of the home and
reconunends testing smoke detectors at least once a m~nth; and
wmlbereas, a smoke detector that isn't working can't protect us from
deadly smoke and fire. "Test Your Detector for Life" is an
important message to conununicate to our conununity; and
wmlbereas, the fire service of the Iowa City Fire Department is dedicated.
to the safety of life and. property from the devastating effects of
fire; and.
wmlbereas, those members of the fire service are joined by other
concerned citizens of this city; as well as business, schools, service
cluhs and organizations in their fire safety efforts; and

Chief Winkelhake and I recommend that the City Council
declare Monday, October 31 as the official Trick or Treat
Night in Iowa City. We further recommend that time
limitations be established between dusk and 8:30 p.m.
Trick or Treat Night in Coralville will be held the same
evening.
.t
We would also appreciate action by the Council which
expresses its intent to schedule Trick or Treat Night on
October 31 of each year, unless special circumstances
warrant changing the date and/or time. Doing so will alert
the citizenry well in advance, and will hopefully reduce
the number of phone calls we receive each year about this
time.
