Fire chiefs; Fire Chiefs' Act of 2026; effective date.
HB 4097 is a procedural bill that establishes the "Fire Chiefs' Act of 2026" as the official name for a new law (though no substantive provisions are described in the text). It sets an effective date of November 1, 2026, but does not create new regulations, duties, or funding for fire chiefs. The bill appears to be a naming resolution for future legislative action, with no direct policy changes described. This is a formal procedural step, not a substantive legislative measure affecting fire chief operations or responsibilities.
