Erie County volunteer fire departments oppose consolidation proposal

6-18-10: Courtesy of YNN. Erie County Comptroller Mark Poloncarz is calling for the county to study looking into merging some county volunteer fire departments.

"Should we have as many companies in place? Should they be paying as much based on the amount of calls and service they do on an annual basis? Those are the questions that need to be asked and should be answered, the public needs to know" said Poloncarz at a news conference on Wednesday.
