Full-Time Inspector Considered By Destin Fire Board
Destin Fire Control District plans a possible part time inspector to review high rise plans and enforce local codes. Assistant Chief Hank Berry cites deficiencies in condominiums and calls for a certified plan reviewer. Board may hire one to two days weekly, authorize retired inspector for next meeting, and keep two volunteers at Station 2 for quicker, safer responses. The district also seeks a fourth paid position with a $12500 salary and asks a four member committee to review applicants.
