Council approves ordinance to remove one fire lieutenant position
Summary
On March 18 Youngstown City Council passed Ordinance 26-73, amending the city’s master salary ordinance to abolish one lieutenant position (position 3900) in the Fire Department, reducing authorized lieutenant positions from 28 to 27.
On second reading, Youngstown City Council passed Ordinance 26-73, amending the city’s master salary ordinance to abolish one position in the Fire Department.
The clerk read the ordinance amendment, which amends Section 1 of Ordinance 25-135 to abolish position number 3900, Lieutenant of the Fire Department, thereby changing the number of authorized lieutenant positions from 28 to 27. A council member moved to suspend the rules and place Ordinance 26-73 before the council for passage. The roll-call vote recorded affirmative votes by Hughes, Kelly, Mack Wilson, Oliver, Ray, Turner and White; the ordinance was passed.
Why it matters: The amendment changes the authorized staffing count for the Fire Department and will affect department personnel listings and future hiring or allocations tied to the master salary ordinance.
The ordinance was passed at the meeting and recorded as adopted; the clerk announced seven yeas for the passage on second reading.
