Concerns over emergency services access and environmental impacts dominated the recent government meeting, as residents voiced their frustrations regarding a makeshift bridge and flooding issues in their community.

One resident highlighted the critical nature of the situation, expressing fears that increased storm intensity and ongoing development in the watershed could hinder emergency medical and fire services. \"I don't want to get that phone call from myself or my neighbors that they weren't able to get EMS services or fire services because of the fact that they can't cross our road,\" the resident stated, emphasizing the urgency of addressing these infrastructure challenges.

The discussion also revealed that emergency services had ceased operations due to safety concerns regarding the bridge, which was constructed by residents. Officials confirmed that without an engineering report proving the bridge could support fire truck weight, services would remain suspended. \"We gotta do something about that. That's crazy,\" one official remarked, underscoring the need for immediate action.

Additionally, another resident presented photographic evidence of flooding and erosion affecting the creek and surrounding embankments, further illustrating the environmental challenges faced by the community. The meeting concluded with a call for state involvement to address these pressing concerns, as residents worry about the long-term implications of climate change and local development on their safety and infrastructure.
