Each person appointed as a paid member of the Fire Department shall first serve a probationary period of not less than one year from the date of appointment. During the probationary period, he or she shall be designated as a probationary member. At the termination of the probationary period, the appointment of the member shall become final upon the recommendation of the Fire Chief, as the case may be and the consent of the Director of Public Safety. However, the Township Committee, for good cause shown, by resolution may waive the probationary period or any part thereof for any appointee who has had previous experience as a firefighter and who may otherwise meet the qualifications as set forth in this chapter or the laws of the state.
