A proposal is in motion to combine Marysville Fire with the Linda Fire Protection District. Leaders say the merger will mean faster response times and a safer community.
Both the City of Marysville and the Linda Fire Protection Board are hoping to merge the two departments.
One thing that won't be equal, the level of service. According to the chief, it'll improve. The merger is expected to bolster staff, allow for more purchasing power, reduce service overlap and improve response plans.
"The public shouldn't see a huge change. It's just going to be a better operation that's done a little more affordably," said Chief Heggstrom.
"This will drop those imaginary boundaries, and we will make response plans where engines are moving the way they need to throughout the communities to properly serve. We will be sending equipment automatically to the City of Marysville and vice versa," said Chief Heggstrom.
"This is a big step for any organization, and I just want to make sure the community realizes this is for the best of the constituents and the people we serve," he said.
Before things are finalized, there will be a formal public hearing at the end of September or early October. We reached out to the local agency commission but didn't hear back.
