RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Civil Service Commission approve the revised Classification Specification and Promotional only Recruitment Bulletin for Fire Engineer.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
In anticipation of conducting a promotional recruitment for Fire Engineer, Human Resources staff met with Fire Department management to review the class specification and recruitment bulletin. Historically, the only access for fueling Fire Engines that were stationed at Fire Station Two and Fire Station Three was through a utility truck that was driven by a Fire Engineer.
