The council will also take up a second reading the proposed consolidation of the part-time volunteer fire chief and the full-time EMS Director/Fire Marshall positions into a full-time fire chief. The Public Safety Committee recommended approval and participants at the Mayor's listening session also supported the proposal.
A question remains as to whether additional personnel will be needed to perform all the tasks performed by the two positions. That question does not necessarily need to be answered before a vote on the proposal, as long as people are cognizant that it may take some additional money.

entail? Money? Additional enforcement of code violations? Additional resources from the state? Does it allow the city to confiscate abandoned property more easily?
This area is definitely in need of some attention and I'm happy to see it receiving it...
Completely agree with Travis. This area needs help.
