Precipitation for May was near normal.
If you must burn, do it safely and in accordance with our fire control ordinance. Also, be considerate of your neighbors who are downwind of your fire.
The Emergency Operations Center received several sturdy easels, a 2-line digital answering machine and a 4-line telephone from Chester County Emergency Services. We have also requested some additional computer equipment to display status and operations reports to help keep all staff members up-to-date. This request was made through Chester County Emergency Services to be funded with Act 147 monies that are available.
Respectfully submitted,
Frederick C. Alston, Fire Marshal
