CITY OF SAN BERORDINO - REQUEST Q)R COUNCIL ACTION
'.
STAFF REPORT
o
In July 1990 the City Council Adopted Resolution 90-135 which
was an agreement between the City of San Bernardino and the
Joint Firefighter Apprenticeship committee (JAC). This was a
program whereby the JAC through a State Fire Training Program
reimburses the City for training their firefighters. This
was a one year agreement to test the validity of the program.
The City incurred no cost as a result of the agreement. The
JAC reimbursed the Fire Department one dollar for each hour
of training during the year. These funds were made available
to the department to purchase items or equipment for the
training program.
Since the beginning of the program the department has accumu-
lated in excess of thirty thousand dollars ~n our training
account. The future program will be based on a higher hourly
rate but will only cover newly hired or promoted employees
who are considered apprentices. Consequently, there is a
possibility of accumulating fifteen to thirty thousand
dollars if the program is continued.
c
The funds generated by this program are controlled and
expended by the Fire Chief according to the Joint Apprentice-
ship program guidelines. The Fire Chief may determine the
priority as to the item purchased, however it is recommended
that funds be spent on items related to training.
