HCC §2-20

Mileage pay for volunteer firefighters from other districts

Read the official text at hawaiicounty.gov ↗

This section says volunteer fire personnel who live outside the district where a fire happens and are approved to help fight that fire will get mileage pay. The pay rate and rules are set by another section of the county code. It only covers miles actually and necessarily driven for their volunteer work.
