Appropriates funds to supplement the salary of the state fire marshal for fiscal years 2025-2026 and 2026-2027.
The bill appropriates funds to supplement the salary of the state fire marshal for fiscal years 2025-2026 and 2026-2027. This follows the devastating Lahaina fire in August 2023, which highlighted the need for a dedicated state-funded organization for wildland fire prevention. The bill aims to ensure the state fire marshal's compensation reflects the increased responsibilities identified in the Lahaina Fire Incident Analysis Report. The funds will be managed by the Department of Labor and Industrial Relations and the act will take effect on July 1, 2025.
