Introduction:
The 2003 Budget for the Shakopee Fire Department includes 50 firefighters in the Wages
and Benefits line item. Currently the Shakopee Fire Department has an active roster of 40
members. This is due to retirements and resignations.
Background:
The Shakopee Fire Department has completed the hiring process, which includes the
Scott County application process, an oral interview and physical agility test, which we
have been utilizing for our hiring since approximately 1997.
Here is the ranking for the top eight candidates:

We would recommend that the City Council hire for a one year probationary period the
above eight candidates upon the successful completion of a Background Check, Physical
and Psychological Evaluation.
