JANESVILLE
âThis is part of the state test. You donât make this, you go home,â barked firefighting instructor Paul Yakowenko to a class of recruits from Blackhawk Technical College last week.
Yakowenko was teaching a basic technique: passing through a 16-inch gap between two studs in a burning house in full gear, including a mask and air tank.
The training at the Janesville Fire Departmentâs training center was part of a course called Firefighter 1.
The state requires 60 hours of instruction before a recruit can go on a call.
Many fire departments require additional training, driven by the fear of lawsuits from damage or injury resulting from wrong decisions by young volunteers, said Rob Balsamo, fire science coordinator at Blackhawk Tech.
TOWN OF MILTON
The Harmony town chairman is raising concerns about skyrocketing fire protection costs for the town as the Milton and Janesville fire departments discuss a proposed consolidation.
About 80% of the town of Harmony is covered by the Milton Fire Department, which is operated by the city and town of Milton.
For 2021, Harmony saw its fire contract increase from about $72,000 to $225,000.
âThe Harmony Town Board is interested in anything we can do to help our taxpayers with that burden,â Town Chairman Jeff Klenz said Friday after he reached out to town of Milton officials and they met in closed session.
