Somewhere in all of the reporting, firefighter salary information should be included. What’s the starting pay, the average pay with 5 years service, 10 years, etc. And the salaries of the top officer positions.
The taxpayers should be given the opportunity to make an informed decision.
The Fire Fighters should have had a Contract LONG AGO. I am surprised that they have not Walked Off the Job yet. I wouldn’t blame them if they do.
