At the Wednesday, August 21, 2024 meeting of the North Shore Council of Governments (NorCOG), several member towns and villages and multiple area fire departments and fire companies expressed concerns about proposed changes to fire brigade standards, and the adverse impacts they would have on area fire protections.

As a follow-up, here is a sample letter which could be used to communicate these concerns with our elected representatives. Please feel free to share this sample with all who might share these concerns.
