Fire Chief Urges Pay Hikes and New Equipment for City Fire Dept
Fire Chief Charles Dalton told the city council in his annual report that firemen need at least a $50 monthly raise and five additional positions since city activity has grown while the department size remains the same. He urged replacing a 23 year old pumper and a 23 year old ladder truck with an aerial ladder, adding six hydrants, and adopting new codes. He noted poor civil service test participation and called for immediate action on Ohio Inspection Bureau recommendations dated April 6 1960.
