SUBJECT: Public Service and Productivity Award Program October Winner - Ron Keown The Suggestion Committee met on October 12, 1989, to select the Employee of the Month for October. The committee re- viewed a suggestion submitted by Battalion Chief Vincent Tomicich, in recognition of Ron Keown' s idea. Ron designed a console out of oak for the Battalion Chief ' s command vehi- cle. This console was installed in the vehicle and can carry an inordinate amount of items, i.e. , pre-fire plans of buildings, extra radios, spare batteries, hazardous material books, safety vests, cameras, maps, etc. There had never been a place to carry all of the items needed. Ron built the console himself and it turned out to be a beautiful piece of furniture that can be utililized in another vehicle when the present one is replaced. He saved the City approxi- mately $2,700 by doing the work himself. II ,
