(a) Whenever the Police Department receives a request for the dispatch of an ambulance
it shall dispatch the ambulances in conformance with this section.
(b) Registrants shall be called upon a formula or formulas based upon the number of
ambulances available for service by the registrant's service. An ambulance available
for service is one which has a crew of at least two persons with the ambulance and
which is ready at that time to be dispatched. The formula or formulas shall be devised
to alternate, as much as possible considering the number of vehicles of each applicant,
between the various registrants, i.e., the call shall alternate between services but
an applicant with three ambulances will be called three times while a registrant with
five ambulances will be called five times, etc.
(c) Notwithstanding the above, should the Police Department receive information that
a particular ambulance or ambulance service is not available on any particular call,
or the estimated time of arrival at the scene is excessive, the next ambulance on
the rotation list may be called. (Added Ord. 70-45, 1970; Am. Ord. 73-155, eff. 2-15-74;
Am. Ord. 74-21, eff. 2-15-74).
