Elyria Fire seeks SAFER grant to hire three firefighters
Elyria Fire Department asks City Council for SAFER grant funding to cover salaries for three new firefighters over three years. Chief Pronesti says 72 on staff across three 22 man shifts, minimum staffing 16 would meet NFPA standards for a 2000 square foot home, possibly enabling a fourth station. The Utilities Committee backed the measure to advance to Finance and Council for final approval.
