Requesting the State Fire Commission to increase by six percent the salary paid to the State Fire Marshal.

Whereas, The State Fire Marshal has broad responsibility for the implementation of fire programs in the state designed to minimize fire hazards, the effects of disaster, and the loss of life and property from fire; and
Whereas, In light of the responsibility of the office, the remuneration paid to the State Fire Marshall lacks parity with similarly situated agency heads and commissioners; therefore, be it,
Resolved by the House of Delegates:
That it is hereby expressed by the members that the State Fire Commission increase by six percent the salary paid to the State Fire Marshal.
