Malloy Pleased With Fire Agreement
Stamford Mayor Dan Malloy is applauding an agreement between the Stamford Fire & Rescue and the Long Ridge Fire Departments. The paid and volunteer departments signed what's being called a "mutual aid agreement," spelling out specific guidelines for response and assistance. Essentially, the compromise says Fire & Rescue will send out engines and staff to assist Long Ridge when Long Ridge responds to a call. The partnership was already in place up until the summer when Fire & Rescue was asked not to provide assistance.
"I asked them in a letter to re-instate it, it took them a couple weeks but we were able to hammer out a new agreement. We're back to making sure people in North Stamford are going to be safe," Malloy says.
The city is also working with a consultant to see what other steps can be taken in terms of Stamford fire service.
