HomeMy WebLinkAboutC.054.93009_2182i have devoted many hours to the fire conmrission and was glad to do so as long as
we appeared to be making progress The last veer, with the current make up ofthe fire
commission, we have made tremendous strides towards achieving potential major
improvements in both cost and effectiveness ofour contracted fie service Your decision
shows either lack of support for this commission or lack of understanding In either case I
find it no longer possible for nre to continue effectively serving as a member of the
commission and regrettably submit my resignation effective immediately 1 thank you for
the opportunity to serve as a fire commissioner over the last S years and wish the
comâ–ºnission success in the future.

ATTACHMENT C
Proposal to the Iredell County Fire Commission
The following proposal is our idea concerning the
cost and operation of the fire service of Iredell
County. We believe it to be a way to assure that all
taxpayers in Iredell County receive as closely as
possible the same level of fire protection. This we
believe should be the goal of the Fire Commission
and the Fire Departments.
We propose that a committee consisting of one
Chief Officer from each department listed below,
as well as one person appointed by the Fire
Commission, work together to establish a uniform
set of standards and guidelines for all Iredell
County Fire Departments that receive tax funding
from the citizens of this county. Those
departments are Central, Cool Springs, Ebenezer,
Harmony, Union Grove, West Iredell, Trinity,
Monticello, Wayside, Troutman, Shepherds, Lake
Norman, South Iredell, Mount Mourne.
This committee will address the following, but are
not limited to these areas alone.
Fire Apparatus- cost, construction of, type of, this
will include pumpers, tankers, brush units, aerials,
service units. This is to set a minimum standard
for each type of unit.
