The plan calls for a paid chief and two paid support staff with the rest volunteers. It's unclear if or how much financial support the city will provide the new department.
The 134-year-old all-volunteer department voted to disband 10 weeks ago, citing a lack of support and low morale.

There's one after-incident meeting I wouldn't want any part of.
The plane was delayed 10 hours and the entire incident delayed 30 flights.

Rob Young Our treasurer has to show a list of all incoming and out going money at each monthly meeting. Having just two people in charge of fiances and no accountability otherwise is a real problem.

The mayor calls the move a mistake, while the council says the chief is not qualified to run the department.
The mayor believes the decision to fire the chief was made because the city council wants more control over fire department funds.

Michael W Bumpus It is unfortunate, but if the water folks are really concerned about it it is a reasonable solution. BUT they need to make keys available to every fire truck that might possibly need access plus key personnel. He biggest worry I have is a frozen lock...See More
Mark Gandzyk This is why God made K12 saws. Remember - at a fire, the Chief or OIC supesedes any "water authority" or "association". No different than pushing a car blocking a hydrant out of the way.
