Baytown Fire Chief Craig Brown endorses four firefighters per engine as a safety standard, linking it to national practice and charter obligations. The four-man staffing plan stems from a 2001 state rule and a 2002 charter amendment that City Hall now reconsiders for the ballot. The mayor questions any near term repeal, while the charter requires obeying the law.
