Gold said he believes Alexander s termination was unfair. I believe the actions taken against him were a bit severe, the commissioner said. Gold was among the elected officials and well-wishers who attended the city council meeting last week when council members discussed Alexander s termination.
Gold said Alexander had previously served as Ocala Fire Rescue s representative to the county fire advisory board.

Ocean Safety along with the Emergency Medical Services Division are currently two divisions of the Honolulu Emergency Services Department.
Resolution 21-122 wants to create two separate departments. The proposal says it would improve administrative efficiency, effectiveness and economy.
The resolution received 198 testimonies in total all in support.
But Mayor Rick Blangiardi opposes the measure, he said at the Public Safety Committee meeting. I’m not opposed to saying at some point in the future this is worth a discussion.
