Welcome to Evanston Fire Fighters Association Local 742

Welcome to the Evanston Fire Fighters Association Local 742 Home Page!  Local 742 was chartered on February 1, 1943.  Since that time, the Evanston Fire Department and the Evanston Fire Fighters Association have endured many changes and prevailed through some turbulent times.  In 1974, the Evanston Fire Fighters were the third International Association of Fire Fighters Local in Illinois to strike for our Members benefits.  Today, Local 742 remains a very strong local, with membership beginning with the entry level fire fighter, continuing through Battalion Chief's.

2008 Legislative Updates from the Associated Fire Fighters of Illinois:

The Illinois General Assembly deadline for moving all but appropriations legislation out of committee was March 14. Committee deadline week has historically been the busiest week of the legislative calendar for your AFFI Legislative Committee. Our agenda work calendar was packed with issues important to all our members.  We are pleased to report that the week was ultimately productive and successful.  For the rest of the article, please click here to go to our Political Action page.  There are important house bills that will need your support, so please keep informed!

Please sign up both current and Retired Members so that you don't miss important announcements such as retirements, funerals, current events, etc.  Too many times Brothers and Sisters miss out on these events due to a Kelly Day, vacation day, etc.  By joining the list, I will be able to send out a notification to each member who signs up to keep you all better informed as to what is going on.  To help in that, if you have information about a funeral notification or event, please e-mail Jeff Boetto at: FyrEater21@aol.com  to let me know the information so it can be passed along.
