Page 113 AUXILIARY SERVICE REPORT: (1 Page) Logistics • WE HAVE A STOREKEEPER .... AND SHE IS AWESOME!! Lauren Sarme was hired and started at the end of September. She is taking time to get a thorough understanding of our warehouse and learning where she can offer support in the systems that are in place for ordering and delivery of equipment and supplies. She is eager to learn and looks forward to meeting the employees of the fire department. Thanks to Firefighter Rylan Kawazoe who was very helpful to fill the gap while the storekeeper position was vacant. He has returned to full duty on operations. We thank him for all of his help and service. Emergency Communications • We had a resignation of our newly promoted FCO II. • A total of 4 FCO I were hired and began training in early September.
