In plain language — from the agenda backup

This ordinance sets up the official job classifications and positions for Austin-Travis County EMS, replacing the version council passed last August. It's the kind of administrative housekeeping that defines the ranks and roles for the folks who show up when you call 911. Funding comes from ATCEMS's Fiscal Year 2026-2027 operating budget.
