It's the politicians (selectoboard) responsibility to ensure the safety of its citizens and to make sure the department is running as efficiently as possible. I'd say they've done a shitty job and let Goodell make a career out of his volunteer position. After all, he left work 5 towns away to respond to a non emergent call putting many people in danger. His exact wores were that he crossed 5 towns, 2 counties in 11 minutes. Let's focus people on the real issues.

Politicians? None of their business? Does anyone out there know how this really works? The Etna Fire Department budget was 3 times the amount of any town their size and double all the neigboring towns considering the population. If these guys truly did their jobs and saved houses and lives in their own towns, they'd be running once every couple of weeks instead of every night.

Hey Dipshit? Can you come clean with these innocent people you're posting to? Noone is chatting about overthrowing anybody. Don't be such a moron. Getting rid of you was the best thing this town has ever done. My God, have a little bit of respect for the real firefighters who are passionate about what they do and stop glorifying your outrageous behavior. You're an absolute idiot.

Mr. Goodell has shut out the citizens of Etna from commenting on his videos unless they were a part of his madness.

Looks like we've gone another month without incident. Firefighters and rescue personnel were there when called upon. They've turned in to a reliable safe entity that the town can be proud of. Thanks for bringing these issues to light Goodell, you did the town a HUGE favor. I look forward to the committee re-convening in April to discuss progress. Congratulations to all that were involved, you've done a great job in bringing pride and respect back to the department. You are appreciated!!!

By the way, I was told that the new department Chief was able to slash 20% of its budget and begin reducing costs while adding new members and working with the community. Congrats to the FD!

No shit. This guy is such an idiot. Thank you for letting us post. Most people don't like to get involved but the town took a beating by the media because of this asshole. Nice to hear that they're doing so well. I certainly don't hear the sirens as much and that is very nice. I think the meeting is Thursday night for the Town Manager to report to the committee.

The committee took 15-20 great ideas and changes they'd like to see in the current setup to the town council. The Town Manager will be meeting with the committee (comprised of community members and members of the FD) in April to discuss the implenation of those idea. Apparently, most of the ideas have already been put into effect. No dangerous driving, fewer calls to other communities who really weren't in need of assistance and better control for the Fire Chief to make appropriate decisions.
