亚特兰大批准4名消防员(每辆卡车)的规则, Atlanta approves 4-firefighter-per-truck rule to boost response, despite chief’s opposition.

亚特兰大市议会一致批准一项计划,要求每辆消防车配备4名消防员,目的是解决人员短缺问题,改善应急工作,尽管消防队长罗德·史密斯表示反对。 他说,目前的消防员人数是足够的,并批评这项行动是出于政治动机。 The Atlanta City Council unanimously approved a plan to require four firefighters per fire truck, aiming to address staffing shortages and improve emergency response, despite opposition from Fire Chief Rod Smith, who said current levels are adequate and criticized the move as politically driven. 这一决定是在工会对高风险地区人员不足感到关切之后作出的,是在征聘和留用方面的挑战中作出的,约有100至105个职位未填补。 The decision follows union concerns about understaffing in high-risk areas and comes amid challenges in recruitment and retention, with about 100 to 105 positions unfilled. 该倡议估计耗资700万美元,将在18个月至两年内执行,公共支助则以消防员安全和社区保护为由。 The initiative, estimated to cost $7 million, will be implemented over 18 months to two years, with public support citing firefighter safety and community protection.
