Last item on the agenda Councilman Holland questioned the fire chief on the accident backing in the primary fire truck into the fire station. The fire chief explained it was real tight turning the truck around due to the houses across the street. He was then questioned if they had someone guiding them in. The fire chief said they had someone guiding them in but he couldn't be on both sides of the truck. When questioned why he didn't have someone on both sides of the truck he explained its because we are understaffed.
