Yesterday morning's Lowndes County Commission work session lasted only eight (8) minutes,
as you can see in the videos.
Maybe they will say more tonight.

Lowndes County has been in a Mutual Aid Agreement for 10 years. This is
a renewal of the agreement for 4 years. Having this agreement in place
makes cooperating with neighboring counties and municipalities easier.

at its work session Monday morning and will vote at its
regular session Tuesday evening.
This is about emergency response calls, such as for the fire
in Remerton, when Remerton called Lowndes County, which called
Valdosta, which sent fire trucks to Remerton.
Why the indirect time-consuming call while a fire doubles in size every minute?
Remerton didn't have a mutual aid agreement with Valdosta, but
did with Lowndes County.
This is the same Commission that went on for 11 minutes
in the
21 February 2011 work session
about a Homeland Security grant for an emergency vehicle,
worring that the county might have to pay to maintain it and might
have to share it with other municipalities.
And then rejected it the next day, if I recall correctly.
What will they think of this mutual aid agreement?
