SUMMARY OF INVESTIGATION OF A COMPLAINT AGAINST LIEUTENANT COLONEL JAMES FILED BY MRS. DONNA FRANTZ This is a summary of the investigation conducted by Chief Jerry Dooley, Jeffersonville Fh'e Depm-tment, in reference to a complaint filed against Lt. Colonel Clifton James about an incident that happened on December 23, 1993. The following statements are attached to this report: 1. Complaint filed by Councilperson Donna Frantz 2. Response to the Complaint filed by Lieutenant Colonel Clifton James 3. Statement by Sergeant Robert Jones The complaint, the response and the statement from Sergeant Robert Jones are self- explanatory. I have also had conversation with Lieutenant Tim Conlen and Private Steve Gavin, who are the people that were in the rea- of Fire Headquarters when this incident happened. Lieutenant Conlen did not get to the rea- of Fire Headquarters until after the phone conversation, but he did hem- exactly what happened after the phone conversation. Private Gavin was back there pretty much the whole time, and was a witness to the incident. Both men agreed that the statement that Sergeant Jones gave was true and con'ect. Mrs. Frantz did not want to identify any oil:er poszible witnesses. CHRONOLOGY ~,~' EVENTS October, 1993 The Fire Chief, with the blessing of the Board of Public Works and Safety, volunteered willing members of the Fire department and the use of space in the buildings to assist in helping with an empty stocking like program for needy children and fanilies called "Toys Under the Tree". October- December, 1993 The Jeflarsonville Fire Department began serving as a storage, sorting and distribution location for the volunteer organization to help prepare donated toys to be distributed to needy families at Christmas time. During this period, volunteers of the organization, as well as the personnel of the fire depm-tment worked at the fire department on these actiw;ties. November, 1993 After notifying the Clarksville Fire Depm'tment, Jeffersonville Fire Department took a truck to Thurnall's Harley Davidson to pick up toys which had been collected for donation to needy families. These toys were placed on the truck and returned to Fire Headquai'ters. December 23. 1993 Mr. Sweetman appeared at the Fire Department asking if he could obtain assistance for his family for Christmas. He stated that his family needed clothing, shoes and toys. A representative of the Double T Tavern called and indicated that a collection had taken place and that they had $206.00 which they were willing to donate for some needy family. An officer of the Fire Depmtment attempted to call Mrs. Frantz, an organizer of the "Toys Under the Tree' p~ogram and was eventually able to relay the message that the Double T money had been collected and that Mr. Sweetman had requested assistance. Mrs. Frantz came to Fi,-e Headquarters and requested that Fire d~partment personnel who were on duty go to tCMart and shop for items for the Sweetman family, using the money donated by the Double T. Sergeant Bob Jones indicated timt he would need to receive permission from a superior before taking personnel on duty tip to KMart. Mrs. Franz indicated that she would call Chief Dooley regarding the request. But when she found out Chief Dooley was out of town, she indicated that she would call Lieutenant Colonel James. Sergeant Jones indicated that he requested that Mrs. Frantz not call Lieutenant Colonel James until he (Jones) checked with Lieutenant Conlen to see if it would be okay to take the men to KMm-t. This statement by Jones was confh~med by other personnel who were on duty. Mrs. Frantz denies that anyone asked her not to call Lieutenant Colonel James. While Sergeant Jones was attempting to secure pem~ission to go to KMart Mrs. Frantz called Lieutenant Colonel James to request permission to use the fire truck and have the Fire det,~ ~ ..... l~, ~c ~c~ perform the sl;c;pp:ng. A.t,~t a short conversation, Mrs. Frantz hung up on Licutenant Colonel Jzanes, who called b,~,: A,,c~ ,~ 3~ef comment by her Mrs. Frantz st~ddenly ended the second phone call and then cursed. Mrs. Frantz left the Fire Department with a representative of the Double T Tavern. Fire Department employee Dennis Frantz contacted Mayor Parker at his residence to complain about the failure of Lieutenant Colonel James to grant the request of his wife, Mrs. Frantz. During that phone call Mrs. Frantz spoke to the Mayor and voiced her complaint. The Mayor advised her to file a complaint with the Personnel Department. COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATION For approximately 2 1/2 months the Jeffersonville Fire Department cooperated and assisted Mrs. Frantz and others with the "Toys Under the Tree" program in collecting, sorting and distributing toys for the needy. This was done after approval by the Fire Chief and the Board of Public Works. In all instances before December 23rd, requests for manpower were made well in advance by the "Toys Under the Tree" program and those requests were always accommodated by the fire department. On December 23rd the incident which led by the Complaint by Mrs. Frantz occm~'ed. The event leading to this complaint was an unanticipated request for immediate action by Fire department personnel which had not been authorized by either the Fire Chief or the Board of Public Works. This request was different than what had been usually done in the past. Sergeant Jones u'ied to follow the chain of command, as he should have, and obtain permission fi'om his superiors. Apparently, because of time c.~:tsh-aii~',s, ?,5~'3. ~ ,ait',z chose to skip the rcgular chain of command and called Lieutenant Colonel James directly, and made a request for immediate assistance in a manner which had not been discussed before. This incident seems to have occmTed because of a breakdown in communication between the Complainant, Mrs. Frantz, and Lieutenant Colonel Janes. Lieutenant Colonel James indicated that he was not aware of any previous time that fire department personnel had been allowed to shop for clothing or toys while on duty and was concerned that he and the department might receive some criticism from citizens or other council people if City equipment was used. He indicated that because of all of the controversy smrounding the take home car policy that he wanted some assurances from councilperson Frantz before he would agree to grant her request. In hindsight, it appears that Lieutenant Colonel James used bad judgment in relating the request from Mrs. Frantz to the take home ca',' policy. But, I believe that his concern about possible criticism for allowing on-duty fire department personnel to usc City TM ~ vehicles to go shopping for children's clothing is legitimate and understandable, since there is no set policy on this. Before this incident there have been personality differences between Lieutenant Colonel James and Mrs. Frantz. They have disagreed on several occasions about various issues. I believe that both of them could have approached this matter differently with better results. AS an employee of the Fire department, Lieutenant Colonel James is expected to abide by the rules and regulations of the City of Jeffersonville Fire Department. I feel that his handling of the situation with Mrs. Frantz resulted from fnlstration and confusion over the use of City vehicles for private purposes. His response to her should have been handled differently to avoid any misunderstanding. But, on reviewing the written Fire department policies I found no violation of any of the roles or regulations. Therefore, I feel that any formal disciplinary action would not be justifiable. I have personally spoken to him and directed him to be more diplomatic in the future and encouraged him to use better judgment. Finally, I would recommend that Dennis Frantz be verbally reminded that complaints regarding the conduct of other fire department personnel should proceed through the chain of command, as per the rules and regulations, aud not directly to thc Mayor's office. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FUTURE ASSISTANCE TO CHARITIES Because of what I think was a communication problem the assistance requested by Toys Under the Tree was not given, a complaint was filed and two newspapers were notified about the fire department's lack of cooperation with the charity. I am not aware of any note of thanks which was received by the City of Jeffersonville or the Jeffersonville Fire Department fi'om either the "Toys Under the Tree" program or any of the people who received packages from that program. The newspapers were not notified about the hours of work and assistance provided by the fire department and the City of Jeffersonville, but they were notified the first time a request from "Toys Under the Tree" was not granted immediately. I do not believe that the men and women who work at the fire depaXmen~ expect praise for all of the things which they do to help other people. But, this entire incident has given the fire department a black eye as payment for all of the cooperation, time and effort given by the department. It also looks bad on the "Toys Under the Tree" program. In the future, if any charitable o~ganizations request the assistance of the Jeffersonville Fire Depa'tment I recommend that they be required to put that request for assistance in writing and submit it to the Chief, who should then communicate the request to the Board of Public Works. In the event that assistance is needed immediately, and the Board of Public Works is not available, the Chief should make the decisic',n based upon his best judgment and a consultation with the Mayor, If assistance is given to any charitable organizations or groups the volunteers for that group should be required to follow the departmental chain of command. They should not call the Fire Chief or Assist Chief directly when an officer of the department requests that the regular chain of command be followed.
