Commissioners raised questions about the status of fire hydrants within the county. Fire Chief Larry Thomas revealed that several are still out of service months after broaching the subject with city mayors. Post Two Glenn Patterson asked about the hydrants, “Are we moving forward on that are far as the ones that need to be fixed?” Thomas affirmed that fewer out of service hydrants have been reported than last year, but the fire department hasn’t checked every hydrant for the year yet. “Who’s keeping up with where they’re out of service [and] when they’re put back in service?” asked Post One Earl Johnson. Thomas replied that the cities fixed hydrants and should keep up with hydrants’ functionality. The fire chief has also asked for the cities to update him on any completed repairs.
