Fire Chief Backs City Pay Hike Plan for Police and Fire
Fire Chief Francis R. Ferren endorsed the city salary increases, saying the plan boosting starting pay from 3.30 to 3.60 per hour and overall raises will attract more applicants, curb resignations, and remove the need for a police-fire referendum. He praised the administration while noting no reason exists to pursue a referendum.
