Show Notes

Westbrook Fire Chief Steve Sloan warns of a critical staffing shortage, highlighting two recent fires that exposed the departments thin resources. With only nine firefighters on duty, national standards call for fifteen. Despite solid pay, doubling the crew would cost three million. Homeowners praise the saves, but stress budget smarts. Sloan keeps pressure on city leaders as call volume rises, expecting a heated push for change.
