Bay Village Firefighters to hold Informational Picket on Dangerous Staffing Cuts

Stuff like this usually happens because the local politicians are making too much money for themselves. Most of the times elected officials feel they are more important than the police, fire and service dept guys that make the city run.

I am of the belief until council members or mayors are willing to run into a burning house, apprehend an armed suspect or plow snow at 3:ooam - they should be grateful to have dedicated employees that do the hard work while they sleep!

To cut minimum staffing from 6 down to 5 firefighters seems not only dangerous but the decision of a person that has no business running a city.

From the PD --

The Bay Village Firefighters Association will stage an informational picket from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday at Bay Village City Hall to protest staffing cuts at the village's fire department. The department's minimum staffing has been reduced from six personnel to five, and the union said in a release that this poses a threat to both residents and firefighters.

My search engine is not working right - does anybody know who the mayor is in this city?
