Backed by research and pushed by the firefighters’ union, this plan comes with a $14.8 million investment over six years to hire 133 new firefighters, offer five years of raises, and add mental health leave and fitness perks. Only Plano, Texas, has done something similar — and city leaders hope healthier, rested first responders will deliver better service for all Lubbock residents.
