Howe council approves interlocal agreement with Grayson County for fire and EMS funding
Summary
The council unanimously approved an interlocal cooperation agreement with Grayson County to secure increased funding for Howe's fire and ambulance services; city staff said the county previously provided about $42,000 annually for fire alone and has expanded support for EMS.
The Howe City Council voted to approve an interlocal cooperation agreement with Grayson County for fire and ambulance services during its Sept. 23 special session.
City staff member Walker told the council that "in the years past, it's been about $42,000 a year for just fire," and said the city has now qualified for a larger county contribution that covers both fire and EMS. Walker said the item primarily updates names and formalizes the funding arrangement.
After brief questions, a council member moved to approve the interlocal agreement; another council member seconded the motion and the council voted in favor. Mayor Carla McDonald announced the motion passed.
