FIRE CAPTAIN – TRAINING DIVISION. In the event that a vacancy for a Fire Captain’s position within the Training Division becomes open for any reason, the Fire Chief or his designee shall have the obligation to offer such promotion to each eligible candidate on the then current Fire Captain’s promotional list in descending rank order. This offer may be accomplished by submitting a form to all the eligible candidates whereon the candidates will indicate whether they agree or decline to accept promotion to a Fire Captain’s position should one come open in the Training Division during the life of the then current eligibility list. If an eligible candidate accepts the promotion to a Fire Captain’s position in the Training Division, that employee agrees to serve in that capacity assigned to the Training Division for a period of three (3) calendar years from the effective date of the promotion without any rights to transfer to Fire Suppression or other fire duty related assignments. An employee who declines to accept a promotion to a Fire Captain’s position in the Training Division shall not suffer any loss of consideration for future promotions to the Fire Captain’s position unless the employee declines a rank order promotion after the Fire Chief has exhausted his obligation to offer each candidate the opportunity. With regard to promotions to the position of Fire Captain within the Training Division, a form (see Appendix B) should be sent to each employee with notification of their results on the Fire Captain’s examination when they are eligible for promotion.
