Book excerpt: The problem was that the Colton Fire Department (CFD) had not updated its disciplinary policies to comply with California Assembly Bill 220, the Firefighter's Procedural Bill of Rights Act (FBOR). The purpose of this research was to update CFD policies, procedures and the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to assure that discipline was applied correctly to each firefighter. Action research was conducted to determine the legislative history of the FBOR, changes that should be made to the CFD policies, procedures and the MOU, and how to communicate these changes to CFD personnel. Updated policy was written, changes to the MOU were recommended for the next negotiation and a PowerPoint presentation was made.
