Stations weigh keeping training officers while relying on chiefs as backup
Summary
During station meetings district members discussed moving away from station training officers toward relying primarily on Fire Chief Kyle Shockley and Assistant Chief Cody Armbrust; for Fryburg and Fairfield the decision was to retain station training officers and use the chief and assistant as backup.
Board and station reports included discussion of whether to shift training responsibilities away from station training officers toward a model centered on Chief Shockley and Assistant Chief Armbrust. Reports from Fryburg and Fairfield meetings indicated members favored keeping station training officers for now and using Kyle and Cody as backup when the officers are unavailable.
The Medora station will address the same topic at its upcoming meeting. No formal district-level policy change or motion was made at the Jan. 21 meeting; the item remains a staffing and operations discussion to be revisited once Medora provides feedback.
