A video shown at the San Luis Obispo Chamber of Commerce annual dinner on Jan. 20 in which chamber employees jokingly refer to “hot,” “full monty” and “shirtless” firefighters has resulted in at least two personnel complaints filed against the city, naming fire Chief Garret Olson and City Manager Katie Lichtig.
Olson, who emceed the dinner, conceived the idea for the video, and both he and Lichtig participated in it.
The city has initiated an investigation into the incident.
In an email to department heads and fire department employees, Lichtig wrote Sunday that she apologizes for the video and “will cooperate fully and accept the consequences” of the investigation.
