BILL NUMBER: S2269
TITLE OF BILL :
An act to amend the town law, in relation to volunteer members of the
Roslyn Rescue fire department
PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL :
This bill would allow additional nonresident volunteers to join the
Roslyn Rescue Fire Department in order to provide necessary fire and
emergency medical services.
SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS :
This legislation amends subdivision 7 of section 176-b of the Town Law
to exempt the Roslyn Rescue Fire Department in Nassau County from the
restriction placed upon volunteer fire districts which restricts
nonresidents to 45% of membership.
JUSTIFICATION :
The Roslyn Rescue Fire Department has consistently served the needs of
the citizens and their guests with bravery and honor. Yet, time
restraints and the cost of living have made it very hard to recruit
Roslyn residents to join the Fire Department. It is difficult to find
residents with the time to join and as a result, the department has
had to turn to the surrounding communities for membership.
