Do you support the city's plan to start a fire-based paramedic program?

    As of right now, the Count owns an office, personnel sleeping quarters and an ambulance bay at Georgetown Station 4. Seems only right they pay the County for it since they are kicking the County out.

    I think that depends on whether or not the County pursues it.

    Does that mean the city has to buy the county's part of fire station from them?

    No they do not pay rent.

    They are only stationed out of two Fire stations and the other ambulances are stationed in their own "stand alone" stations. 1 of the stations was built for EMS and Fire by sun city, and the other station EMS paid to be in when the building was built years ago. They own part of the station.

    Also, the County maintains all radio towers and offers free EMS service to the city.

    The city is getting a steal of a deal

    I'm just curious, does Williamson County currently pay any sort of "rent" to the city for housing the Ambulances and crews?

    I agree. Too bad you don't have to be a citizen to vote and too bad we weren't asked to vote on this as a community before council took it upon themselves.

    Not a reliable poll when one person can vote as many times as they want....
