Committee advances $1 increase to fire department overtime inspection fee
Summary
The committee considered an ordinance to raise the fire department's overtime fee from $133 to $134 per hour, which the department said reflects MOU changes and is intended to recover costs for after-hours inspections; the committee forwarded the item to the full Board for July 12.
The Budget and Finance Committee on June 23 considered an ordinance to increase the San Francisco Fire Department's overtime fee for after-hours inspections and events from $133 to $134 per hour.
A fire department representative identified in the transcript as "Mark closer" told the committee the increase stems from changes in the memorandum of understanding (MOU) and is intended to allow the department to recover its costs for customer-requested, after-hours work. "The increase is due to MOU changes and will allow the department to recover its costs," the representative said.
The (unnamed) Controller suggested postponing the item until the July 12 meeting. After discussion, Supervisor Tang moved and Supervisor E seconded to send Item 5 to the full Board on July 12; the motion was approved without objection. No public comments were recorded on the item during the committee session.
