Daydream makes some great points. I will add recently at a city council meeting the Police got a $40,000 grant. They got a standing ovation and praise from the finance committee. Then the Fire Dept gets a $770,000 grant and the they got not one acknowledgement from the council until the chief had to step for and acknowledg it himself. The lies being fed about this department are damaging morale. And they are lies. There is no FBI investigation into the Fire Department.

Secondly as Daydream points out. OT is going to be very high. The department is understaffed. The budget was for 212 positions. They are at 188 I believe. So while the OT line item will be HIGH. The salary line item will be a couple million under budget. Plus all that benefit money not spent. Don’t jump on the OT number unless your prepared to discuss the salary number as well. Good luck chief you’ve got a lot on your plate. When will the Mayor give you help? Your trying to do 4 jobs. ALOT IS NOT GETTING DONE.
