RE: Firefighter Eligibility List
The attached list are names of Firefighter applicants on the
current eligibility list who are no longer interested in
maintaining their rating on the list. I have listed their
current position and the reason that each applicant is no longer
interested. I have talked to each applicant personnally,
requesting a confirmation letter for the files, except Robert L.
Jackson, who has moved and did not have a forwarding address or a
phone number listed in any of the local directories. I did post
a letter to his last known address, requesting forwarding,
informing him that I was trying to contact him and if he was
• still interested, to please contact me. I allowed a two week
time period for response, and as of this date, there has not been
any response.
