Residents voice concerns about fire-rescue proposal April 17, 2021 at 8:16 PM EDT - Updated April 18 at 10:16 AM
Residents of Indiantown had a chance to voice their concerns and further discuss a village proposal that would break ties with Martin County Fire Rescue.
The event took place Saturday afternoon at Post Family Park. It was put on by Martin County Commissioner Harold Jenkins and Councilwoman Susan Gibbs Thomas.
The idea of privatizing fire rescue and emergency services came from a paid consultant as the village is trying to find cost-saving options.
According to Village Manager Howard Brown, it costs the village about $5.5 million each year to use county fire rescue services. He believes a private company can do it for less money.
