Old Business:
Joint Fire and EMS. Mayor Ellender
spoke with Elmo Rose, Trustee for Franklin Township. He
indicated that they were no interested in consolidation with
Carlisle. Frankin still has a possibility but concern with
the cost. Carlisle is on their own at this time. Franklin
will not be doing anything in 2007 until at least 2008
before making a move. Carlisle is still financially good
for another year. May need to renew a fire levy. Would need
an additional mil to operate, some of the capital
improvements have been met already. Will discuss more at
the second meeting in September.
