Is SOC for Safety Battalion ?

No, Safety has been shut down due to funding. There has always been a Ops Chief, the new car is to be used by SOC personnel for daily routines and responses. SOC operates during daytime, or on call after that.

Why did they close the safety division? I thought the only cuts were the vacancies not being filled.

Nope- 30 vacancies, Safety AND 2-companies......

And yes..... I'm "TIP" !

I dont think that answer is out yet, but I do know that if they get it, its a bad thing for the department.

......let's take the Safer Grant, which is for FD's, and try to figure out how not to use it on the FD......

......we can't? Well, let's not use it, how do we get out of it?......

I was expecting more intelligent moves by the new Administration, Guess NOT!!
