Andrews City Council Approves Fire Reserve Plan
The Andrews City Council on Thursday approved a secondary fire reserve program to augment the volunteer department during extreme emergencies. Up to 15 experienced reserve members will attend one meeting monthly and follow fire department rules. Spokesman Thurman Carter said the reserve aids in simultaneous fires and larger incidents while keeping older firefighters active and valued. The fire chief or assistant chief will call up reserves, who will be paid for meetings and calls and receive the same insurance, equipment, and city water rates.
