Franklin Ambulance eyes financing options in Franklin County
EMS Director Williams told 14 municipal officials in Christopher that the Franklin County Ambulance Service faces an eight thousand dollar six month deficit April through September with 67 EMTs, down from 91 last year. He urged towns to set fixed payments rather than piecemeal fuel bills and housing, while officials weigh tax support and outside aid to keep five units operating.

No Bids Seen For Du Quoin Packing Co Sale
The Du Quoin Packing Co building on the northeast city limits has attracted no offers after listing at 4.25 million dollars. Broker Seymour Kaplan of Schostak Brothers & Co. notes it is early in the process and a Wall Street Journal ad has been placed. The 58 year old plant closed in 1980 after failed reemployment plans and grant attempts, with local efforts to salvage Blue Bell label production and market. Nearby closures and industry trends point to moves away from industrial cities to closer livestock sources.
