Thompson <br /> 7J� Dl8l oxt 5Ol <br /> Phone N��er: ' ' <br /> PURPOSE: To cnnSider delegating the responsibility of annual certification of <br /> firemen of fire departments operation under contract with Orange Cnunty, <br /> NEED: General Statutes, Chapter 118-13 requires that fire departments certify <br /> annually to the H. C. Fireman's Pension Fund a complete roster of its <br /> qualified members. Certification insures that firemen will qualify for <br /> Workmen's Compensation and other forms of life insurance provided by State <br /> and Federal governments. <br /> _ <br /> zmeocz: Delegation of the responsibility would relieve the Board of having to <br /> annually certify rosters for each fire department yet will allow the <br /> Board, through its designated representative, to continue monitoring <br /> the certification process to insure that State requirements are net on <br /> a timely basis. It would also have the effect of providing a focal <br /> point. Hr fire departments to go through to make amendments as member- <br /> ships change. State law now permits this d0eqat1nn <br /> R[CJKEUD8TlOH(5): <br /> Authorize the Director. of Emergency Services to sign the certifications <br /> for the County as these annually become due and for any revisions during <br /> the year. <br />
