The council member inquires about the number of certified and deployed lifeguards for the current year, and whether it is comparable to the previous year's count of 900 lifeguards. She also asks if there are still lifeguards enrolled in lifeguard school, how the enrollment compares to last year, and if lifeguards undergo joint training with fire and police departments.

  • The council member is asking her questions in a series, so the answers will come later.

So lifeguards, I'm still focused on the lifeguard.
4:05:00
So I know you said 900.
4:05:02
So are they the ones who are certified and ready to be deployed at the beaches?
4:05:07
And was that the certified number last year?
4:05:10
Because I know you said it was about the same.
4:05:12
So I just wanted to understand, was it 900?
4:05:15
Also, are there still lifeguards enrolled in lifeguards school?
4:05:21
And if so, does that come how does that compare to last year?
4:05:24
And do they train with the fire and police?
4:05:27
Because I think they do sometimes do respond to the same kinds of crises that the lifeguards do.
4:05:33
That's lifeguards.
