Six fire departments in the Fox Valley have agreed to share personnel and resources during the coronavirus pandemic.
The agreement includes the Grand Chute, Appleton, Kaukauna, Fox Crossing, Neenah-Menasha and Oshkosh departments.
Fire chiefs say the agreement goes above and beyond the standard mutual aid and automatic aid agreements that are already in place.
Each department retains autonomous control over its daily operations.
Grand Chute Fire Chief Tim Bantes was selected as the regional coordinator for the agreement.
