Baldwin Fire Chief Lance Mire applied to the board concerning the hiring of a full-time firefighter for the town, and saw approval upon verification of budget allotment.
He also apprised the board of water hydrant testing in district four to begin next Monday.
In other news, the resignations for two Baldwin police officers, Philip Young and Michael Fontenot, were accepted; and Kimberland Gibson was rehired as a full-time officer.
Finally, the bids for nine surplus police vehicles were accepted contingent upon review.
