Letter from the Editor:Local Elected Officials Neglecting Safety and Health Conditions for First Responders

It’s a disappointing shame that our elected officials are ignoring all of these horrific conditions for over so many years. It should have been dealt with and done with automatically without hesitation!

All of these elected officials they were CCed here in this letter, selfishly rallied for pay raises for themselves for their own personal gain. They even rallied for having the city hoof the bill for their own personal office staff!  Simply put “Greed!”

Our police, firefighters and all first responders deserve better! Give them the tools they need to keep us safe and the accommodations to keep them healthy and safe as well! It’s time for change!

An important message from Local 76 concerning the conditions of firehouses citywide.
