Can i just ask before we start, it might be ms. Kern to respond. But how did thing get to the place they are at right now . How would you describe the situation weve gotten to in terms of the Staffing Levels .

At the Fire Department there was a call for bringing in increased overtime versus hiring new staff. Here you use overtime and per diems instead of new staff because you havent brought on new staff. Is that a policy call to use per diem and ot to be able to offset benefits like we do in the Fire Department or is it another matter
