Grimsby and Lincoln to Share Fire Departments

The two towns have approved a pilot project to combine fire protection services.

The Town of Grimsby and the Town of Lincoln have teamed up to combine fire departments as part of a pilot project. 

By sharing fire services, both municipalities will be able to make the most of their collective resources while saving money on expenses. 

"This is an incredible opportunity for us to partner with the Town of Grimsby to create operational success and efficiency in both communities," said Town of Lincoln Mayor Sandra Easton.  "This is one way we are enhancing our existing cooperative and collaborative relationship with the Town of Grimsby."

Grimsby Mayor Jeff Jordan says the partnership is good news for both communities. 

"A chance to partner, build and foster mutually beneficial relationships with other municipalities is an important step in a sustainable future," said the Town of Grimsby Mayor Jeff Jordan. "This model is an outstanding opportunity to work toward the collective good of our communities."

Gregory Hudson will be appointed as Fire Chief of the fire department for the two towns.
