There Will Be No NWFD/GRFD Consolidation

The two fire boards met this evening to discuss a possible consolidation.

After questions and comments back and forth between the two boards, the two chiefs and the firefighters, the board members voted to go into Executive Session.

Upon returning, a motion by a GRFD Board Member NOT to consolidate was made and seconded.

The GRFD Board voted 5-0 not to proceed with any consolidation, at least at this time. Some members noted it might be worth considering in the future, but there was no doubt, they felt it was not in the best interests of GRFD or the citizens they serve to proceed at this time.

We certainly endorse their decision.
