Fire district detachment bill under review in Kansas

Douglas County Commissioner Jim Flory testified in favor of House Bill 2249 to allow residents to pursue detachment from a fire district when it crosses county lines. He cited Marion Township, near a Clinton Township Fire Department substation, as an example and warned current law denies representation to non home county residents. Steve Hirsch, secretary of the Kansas State Firefighters Association, opposed the measure, warning of potential abuse and funding instability for districts. The bill remains under consideration. Gov Brownback’s plan to hold third graders back if not reading at grade level remains alive in a modified form.
