Creates a volunteer firefighter training fund; appropriation

This bill establishes a new Volunteer Firefighter Training Fund to support training programs for volunteer firefighters. The fund will be managed by the state comptroller and commissioner of taxation and finance, with money drawn from the state's general fund. An initial appropriation of one million dollars is provided, and local fire department chiefs can apply for these funds to pay for volunteer firefighter training. The legislation creates a formal mechanism for funding training without changing existing training requirements or eligibility rules.
