It's not even been a precedented practice. The Chiefs association is only doing this so they can say "sorry boys we tried, we supported you". All territory changes in the past have been done between the two affected Chiefs. The last territory change I know of, now mind you've I've been retired for quite some time, didn't even come to vote to be approved by the Chiefs association just like those before it. So unfortunately where legislative direction is lacking, common law if you will takes over. It since the beginning of this counties fire service this would be the first time the Chiefs association would be gifted the authority to change territories.

This can be done easily because half of the counties in this state do not have chartered cities. Every thing is ran by the county.

That was a dumb move and does nothing but add to the confusion. At the next meeting it should be voted on to give Station 1 back their original name. They have the original charter from 1986 that states they are Salisbury Fire Department, Station #1 and that is what they need to go back to. <br /><br />When "Headquarters Company" was changed it was changed to Station 16. With that said, the current station sitting on Beaglin Park Drive should now be called Station 13 and reassigned a station number just like Station 16 was.<br /><br />You can't be that stupid to make a Charted department called Station 1 change their station designation to Station 13 when in fact is should be the Beaglin Park station that should now be called Station 13. <br /><br />Do the right thing and give these volunteers their Station number back.

What happens if they all decide to stop volunteering because of this mess. If you are in city limits you get city fire department services. If you are in the county you get county fire departments. The people in surrounding towns (Hebron, Fruitland, Pittsville, Willards) pay a town tax yet they don't have 24 hour paid fire crew, they have volunteer fire fighters. The only paid personnel is the paramedic and the towns share those. Stop paying the city of Salisbury! It is not fair to the rest of the people in the county that you are paying so they get round the clock fire service while the rest of us don't seem to matter.
