Alabama Fire College and
Personnel Standards Commission
A new agenda items policy
The deadline for any public request for
adding a business item to the Commission agenda is 45 days prior to the date
of the Commission meeting. The public request must be in writing, describe
the need for discussing the subject, and describe any request for action.
Business items not
submitted by the agenda deadline can still be presented to the Commission
under the agenda headings of “New Business” [from Commissioners] or
“Business from Visitors.” However, it should be understood that items not
added to the agenda in advance are less likely to result in immediate
Commission action before all relevant information can be assembled,
disseminated, and considered.
Explanation of Commission
Agenda Considerations
The Commission
The Alabama Fire Fighters
Personnel Standards and
Education Act, which established the Alabama Fire College, specified a
Commission of seven members. Their functions and duties are spelled out in
the Act; they have the responsibility for providing for all of the mandates
of the Act.
Major responsibilities include certifying fire protection
personnel with respect to their competence to perform fire service duties at
various defined levels of responsibility, and also certifying fire fighting
and education programs as having attained the minimum required standards
affecting them and prescribed by the Commission.
Commissioners are appointed in the following manner:
- One member designated by the Professional Fire
Fighter's Association of Alabama
- One member designated by the Alabama Firemen's
Association.
- The state fire marshal or his designee.
- Four members appointed by the governor.
The Commission meets in regular session in different
locations each quarter, on the third Wednesday of January, April, July, and
October.
