Smithfield residents remember to vote YES on the New Fire Station Bond Referendum on November 6th!
The District Board’s reckless actions have now jeopardized people in Nasonville even further.
They terminated the paid Firefighters, terminated the Chief and now without any support or leadership the entire volunteer staff resigns making an extremely dire situation for public safety in the community of Nasonville.
BREAKING: Entire volunteer board resigns from Nasonville Fire District
nrinow.news
BURRILLVILLE – More than two dozen volunteers, many of whom have been serving the village for years, have resigned from the Nasonville Fire District. In a letter dated Tuesday, Oct. 9, Nasonville F…
Its not often a volunteer force takes a stand to protect and honor the paid staff. That department must have been well managed by the Chief. An inclusive department with proper leadership. Chiefs from larger departments should take notice. I salute you Chief Joe Bourquin!
Why should it be the surrounding communities responsibility to pick up the tab for providing services to people outside their jurisdiction jeopardizing the safety of the people in those mutual aid communities?
Hey Nasonville, wake up before the whole town burns to the ground!!! Are you crazy?? The fire dept. is not one of the dispensable expenses.
So sad and unfortunate..... however... surrounding communities can render aid..... big states do it continuously..... this is only the beginning of what lies ahead 😔..... for so many more communities 👎🏻😡
Nasonville Fire District Board spins out of control!
RISAFF continues to push back on multiple fronts. Arbitration, unfair labor practices, open meeting violations, and possible litigation, which as quoted in this article President Andriole states Nasonville tax dollars will be going to litigation instead of public safety.
