Editor’s Note: The following was provided by the City of Whitewater.
The Whitewater Fire Department Inc. (WFD, Inc.) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the City of Whitewater to continue the process of becoming a city department.
An outside consultant, Public Consulting Group, is working with WFD Inc. and the City of Whitewater weekly to help put a plan together for a smooth transition. This process is allowing for an outside look at current operational protocols in addition to possible future needs to help service the community and townships.
“We are excited to continue moving forward on the process to join the city,” said WFD, Inc. Board of Directors President and Fire Captain, Christ Christon.
All groups are anticipating a mid-summer date for a complete merger between the city and WFD, Inc.
