DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATION:  

 

Supervisor Thomson requests that the Board of Supervisors approve the reappointment of Russell Bruno, to the Vacaville Fire Protection District, representing District 5, for a term to expire on July 1, 2022.

 

SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:

 

Russell Bruno is employed in Solano County and has a distinguished family history of firefighting. His father was a Captain for the Contra Costa Fire Department for more than 38 years; his grandfather, Clance Vierra, was Fire Chief for the City of Martinez. 

 

Mr. Bruno brings a familiarity and respect for what firefighters do on a daily basis and will serve the Vacaville Fire Protection District well. 

 

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

 

The costs associated with preparing the agenda item are nominal and absorbed by the department’s FY2018/19 Adopted Budget.

 

ALTERNATIVES:

 

The Board could choose not to approve the reappointment, but this would not be recommended as this gives our long-time resident the opportunity to continue contributing his efforts to firefighting.  

 

OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:

 

None.
