Optimistic talks continue over county fire service north of Baytown
Fire protection for unincorporated areas north of Baytown remains unsettled as talks between City of Baytown and Harris County face budget pressures.

Harris County Fire Marshal Mike Montgomery notes few areas still operate under such county contracts, with most protection provided by a city or utility.
