title Ordinance 0-98-65 An ordinance of the City of Gainesville, Florida, amending Sec. 10-1 by renaming the division of fire loss management to fire safety management; amending Sec. 10-1(b) clarifying the chief of the fire department's discretion to designate the division manager of the fire department's fire safety management division; repealing Sec. 10-1(c) which defined duties and qualifications of the fire inspector position; providing directions to the codifier; providing a severability clause; providing a repealing clause; and providing an immediate effective date. Recommendation The City Commission adopt the proposed ordinance, as amended. explanation At its meeting on May 11,1998, the City Commission authorized the City Attorney to draft and the Clerk of the Commission to advertise an ordinance amending Section 10-1 to clarify that the authority of the fire official is vested with the fire chief who may appoint any subordinate to serve in that role and may change the designation at his/her discretion; to remove unneeded qualification language relative to the position of fire inspector. At first reading the City Commission revised the ordinance to rename the division of fire loss management to fire safety management.
