She noted there were periods of peak <br /> overtime , so much so , that it would lead one to question whether <br /> it would not be more cost effective to hire another firefighter . <br /> Lucille noted she was just getting involved with her review and <br /> would have more information at future meetings . <br /> Heller suggested that all Finance Committee members establish <br /> some personal objectives for reviewing the budgets of their <br /> assigned departments .
