2/22 - ESA Meeting - Brad Grassmick - 2pm
Just a reminder. The monthly Emergency Services Authority meeting will be taking place tomorrow:
Date: Thursday, 11/30
Time: 2:00pm
Place: Peaine Twp. Hall
I would encourage anyone who is interested in the betterment of our island emergency services to attend.
The item of discussion to remove Brad Grassmick from the ESA Board will most likely be on the agenda.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to support your community.

I agree, always a good idea to go to a meeting. If anyone has the agenda posted for the November 30th ESA meeting, please share as I cannot find it on my Peaine Township's website.

I agree that attending the meeting is important. Why was the meeting and agenda not properly posted on the Peaine Township website? Oversight, deliberate or leadership incompetence? Inquiring mind's of taxpayers might want to know if their tax dollars are being properly utilized for public good.

ESA Meeting
Probably the most interesting aspect was the work done by Kitty, Jim, and Cody from EMS, addressing the Fire Departments salaries to make it more attractive to attend trainings and increase participation in Fire Department services. In addition, the ESA board will be posting agendas, minutes, and such on both township websites. The Steinbach family was again very generous with a donation of $140,000 for fire equipment which will include a new Ford 350 with additional equipment for fighting wildfires. Cody reported that EMS has had 108 runs thus far this year with 44 air transports. Definitely a record number of runs for our EMS Department!
There were many who attended but all were respectful and everyone well-behaved. Thanks to all who took their precious time to attend the meeting.

ESA UPDATE
Just thought I would update everyone on the ESA status.
These are the board members of the BI Emergency Services Authority:
(Past/present jobs listed to the best of my knowledge.)
Bill Kohls â?? Peaine Supervisor/Insurance Agent
Kathleen McNamara â?? St. James Supervisor/Retired School Superintendent
Jim McDonough â?? Fireman/Grocer
Brad Grassmick â?? Medical Physician
David Howell â?? Retired Attorney/Sous Chef
Rick Speck â?? Zoning Administrator
Next month, Brad Grassmick's 3 year term is due to expire. As noted previously, we are fortunate to have Dr. Grassmick's expertise on this Emergency Service Board. The Peaine Township Board will be appointing a member to this position. I would encourage community members to voice their support of Mr. Grassmick's re-appointment to the ESA at the meeting tomorrow and also at the Peaine Township meeting on March 14th, 7:00PM.
Now is the time to speak your voice!
