The National Fire Protection Association recommended 28 personnel for a fire response. The Canandaigua Fire Department is facing staffing shortages, with the union claiming only four paid firefighters were on scene during a recent incident. The city previously declined to apply for a federal SAFER grant that could have aided hiring.
