RECOMMENDATION:

Recommendation Concerning Extension to the Training and Education Requirements of the Escambia County Fire Services Unification Plan - Michael D. Weaver, Public Safety Department Director

That the Board approve the “Escambia County Fire Services Unification Plan Training and Education Requirements Extension” providing a one-year extension, effective October 1, 2011, to the deadline for firefighters, career and volunteer, to complete all training and education requirements established by the Escambia County Fire Services Unification Plan.

BACKGROUND:

On September 25, 2008, the Board approved the Escambia County Fire Services Unification report which established a deadline of October 1, 2011, for implementation of new training and education requirements for the various positions in the department. Since that time, Fire Services’ leadership has changed several times with no consistent follow up of the implementation of the Escambia County Fire Services Unification Plan. This extension will provide all firefighters, career and volunteer, until October 1, 2012, to complete all requirements.
