Informational picket scheduled for Monday 12/21/09 from 11am – 7pm In front of City Hall (2nd & Cleveland Ave. SW)   Firefighters that promised to help save their fellow man now face the choice of layoffs or work/pay reduction in order to keep that promise. Either choice will result in unsafe working conditions for those that remain, and increased risks to the same citizens they swore to protect.  Why were those that risk their lives most, the first to be cut? Why were cost saving measures suggested by the CPFFA Local 249 disregarded?  It is time to hold leaders accountable for the safety of our firefighters and our citizens.  For more information please contact: Ric Leone ric@iafflocal249.org 330-495-2411
