The Mineral Wells Fire/EMS Department is entering into a partnership with Palo Pinto County Emergency Services District 1 for firefighting services â the result of a lot of hard work, officials said.
âWeâve worked for quite a while to bring the volunteers and the paid department together in our community,â Mineral Wells Fire Chief Michael Pool said at Tuesdayâs city council meeting. âWeâve had some long, tedious conversations and maybe lost a little sleep over this, and we worked with the ESD at the same time to come up with a way to service Mineral Wells. Weâve come up with this agreement and I think itâs a good thing going forward â something we can build on and a good starting point for a relationship with the ESD on the fire side.â
