The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 6645, seeks to amend section 29-305 of the general statutes regarding local fire inspections. The bill introduces new legal language that allows a member of a fire unit, in addition to the local fire marshal, to conduct inspections of buildings and facilities. This change aims to enhance the flexibility and capacity of fire departments in carrying out inspections.

Additionally, the bill modifies the frequency of these inspections, changing the requirement from once each calendar year to once every three calendar years. This adjustment is intended to reduce the administrative burden on fire departments while still ensuring that fire safety standards are upheld. The overall purpose of the bill is to streamline the inspection process without compromising public safety.
