2. Recommendation: The addition of 6 full-time employees – 1 police

City Council · 2026-07-15 · agenda_item

The City Council of Rockledge is considering adding staff to its public services. This includes one police officer to work at the new day school at Kennedy Middle School. The city also plans to hire three firefighters to ensure minimum staffing for a ladder truck. Additionally, two employees will be hired for stormwater management. This item is currently under review by the City Council. If approved, this would lead to increased needs for public safety and infrastructure maintenance. The hiring of new personnel will likely involve administrative support services. The city may also need to consider related equipment and supply needs for these new roles. Local businesses that provide administrative support, safety equipment, or stormwater management supplies could find opportunities as these positions are filled and their functions begin.
