Ocean Shores civil service commission approves lateral firefighter-paramedic eligibility list
Summary
The Ocean Shores Civil Service Commission on March 26 approved a hiring eligibility list from March 20, 2026, after staff reported four lateral firefighter-paramedic candidates passed oral boards and are eligible for the department's hiring list.
The Civil Service Commission of the City of Ocean Shores voted March 26 to approve a lateral firefighter-paramedic eligibility list created after oral boards on March 20, 2026.
The civil service chief executive reported the commission held lateral paramedic oral boards on March 20. "We had 4, in attendance and all 4, passed and scored and are able to be on our hiring list," the civil service chief executive said, adding the commission was "very excited" about the results.
The approval came during a special meeting at the Ocean Shores Library. The Chair moved to approve the list; the motion was seconded and the commission voted in favor without any recorded questions. The commission also handled routine procedural items at the meeting, including a motion to excuse two commissioners and approval of the meeting agenda.
The hiring list places the four successful lateral candidates on the department’s eligibility roster for future hiring. The commission did not specify names of the candidates or additional hiring timelines during the meeting.
With no further business, commissioners moved to adjourn; the motion carried and the meeting was concluded.
Next procedural steps for the newly approved eligibility list, such as formal appointment or conditional offers, were not specified during the meeting.
