New Creek VFD 2014 so far

I honestly don't know how it came about. We just received notice from our 911 that Jan 1 of 2013 we would no longer be alerted past the county line. After several meetings with that dept, county commission meetings, a state fire marshal review and report (which was ignored) and state fire commission meetings...they all buried their heads and left it at the county line. 50 years of running it first due, ISO maps, box cards, fire and EMS reports from the 60's, time, safety and distance studies all proved it should be our area. We had always dual alerted them with us, due to there being 23 miles between stations. We're back to being alerted as a dual alert, but we have to respond what they dictate, which doesn't always make sense. We cannot respond our tower for flue fires, as an example.
