Fire Rescue
DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
During the current fiscal year, Marion County Fire Rescue has been tracking overtime spending, as COVID, special events and other unanticipated events were not budgeted into the overtime calculation during the last budget cycle. Currently, we are asking to transfer $685,000 for Overtime, totaling $939,205 in loaded costs to cover six (6) pay periods in anticipation that upcoming operational changes will help reduce our annualized amounts. We plan to continue to monitor and evaluate the line item and to adjust operations wherever possible to accommodate these unforeseen events so we can continue to provide the same level of service for the residents of Marion County.
