Medicine Hat ratifies fire service agreement with Cypress County
MEDICINE HAT, AB – After a year and a half of negotiations, the fire service agreement between Cypress County and the City of Medicine Hat has finally been approved.
On Tuesday evening, Medicine Hat Council voted to ratify the document, which will see the City and County share trucks and crews during large scale emergency calls.
Cypress County was the first to accept the agreement and needed the City to sign off, as they’ll go with a fixed cost system rather than a pay for service model.
