Public Safety Academies Release 11-20-2014
Springfield Fire Commissioner Joseph Conant stated, I appreciate the Mayors continued support of the
Fire Department and his willingness to increase the number of budgeted firefighters for the first time in
many years. The addition of 28 new firefighters will reduce our reliance on overtime for staffing and at
the same time continue our efforts to deploy four firefighters on each apparatus in accordance with
national standards which will increase the safety of our firefighters and the citizens of Springfield.
