At the County Council meeting held on June 1, 2007, funding for three (3) Fire Fighter positions (position numbers 00-03798, 00-04331, and 00-04332) was removed from the Fire Department's budget and placed into the Contingency Relief account. After 12 months of basic Fire and EMT training, recently graduated recruits are ready for these assignments to the Waikoloa and Keauhou Fire Stations. In order to have these positions filled quickly, we would like to request a waiver from the Finance Committee and have this resolution heard at the Council meeting scheduled for February 21, 2008. If there are any questions, please do not hesitate to call the Hawai'i Fire Department. William ba Director of Finance APPROVED: Harry Kim Mayor mm, No. /012- Ref. Enc.
