In a recent government meeting, Lieutenant Hunter Moitz shared details of a successful helicopter rescue operation at Pinnacle Mountain, highlighting the collaborative efforts of multiple agencies. Moitz, who was mowing lawns with his father when he received the call, quickly mobilized to assist in the rescue of an injured hiker with a leg fracture. He emphasized the teamwork involved, noting that three other North Rock firefighters and park rangers had already been on the scene for an hour, providing critical medical support before his arrival.
The operation, which Moitz described as one of the first significant rescues for the Arkansas helicopter rescue team, showcased the extensive training and preparation that went into the mission. He expressed gratitude for the collective efforts that made the rescue possible, stating, \"I was the final puzzle piece,\" acknowledging the contributions of his colleagues.
Following the rescue discussion, the meeting transitioned to old business, where various agenda items were addressed, including a resolution for the rehabilitation of a property at 213 Crockett Street. Mayor Hardwick facilitated the discussion, ensuring that all parties understood the process and deadlines associated with the rehabilitation agreements.
The meeting concluded with a unanimous vote on the motion to proceed with the property rehabilitation, reflecting the council's commitment to community development and support for local initiatives.
