County, Pound Ridge Fire District agree to preposition rescue equipment in Ward Pound Ridge Reservation
Department of Emergency Services and Parks staff described a five‑year IMA with Pound Ridge Fire District under which the county will purchase a small equipment shed (about $43,000) to preposition a UTV, trailer and rescue gear in the park in lieu of annual financial compensation, shortening response times in remote park areas.
The full story
The county presented a proposed five‑year intermunicipal agreement with Pound Ridge Fire District to formalize fire and rescue coverage for the northern sections of Ward Pound Ridge Reservation that lie outside the district’s tax boundary. In lieu of continuing an annual payment, the county will purchase a small prepositioned equipment shed and Parks will supply the pad and electrical connection so the district’s rescue UTV and trailer are staged inside the park for faster response.
