LA CROSSE, Wis. (WKBT) The La Crosse Fire Department will assume administration of the Holmen Area Fire Department for a year under a resolution the La Crosse Common Council approved Thursday night.
Council members Mark Neumann and Doug Happel characterized the approval, at a cost of $14,583.33 a month to the Holmen district, as one of the most important actions the council took Thursday, if not stretching back further.
The resolution, which has been considered in one form or another for years and is similar to La Crosse pacts with other municipalities, is the result of the Holmen department’s request for the La Crosse department’s chief and subordinates “to serve as the Acting Chief and management and administration” for Holmen.
The Holmen Area Fire Dept will pursue a new partnership with La Crosse

HOLMEN, Wis. (WKBT) – A few weeks ago, News 8 Now learned that Holmen Area Fire Department Chief Buck Manley was placed on paid administrative leave.
Village leaders say the decision was made based on two key reports about the department, as well as a pending shared-services agreement.
The department is very short-staffed right now with just 15 firefighters, most of them paid on-call volunteers.
Its emergency response times are much slower than national standards.
McMahon Associates, an engineering consultant firm, established its own report about the department in April.
