Plans for continued sharing of fire and medical resources between Overland Park and Johnson County moved forward last night. At this month’s meeting, Overland Park’s Public Safety Committee unanimously approved four respective lease agreements allowing the Overland Park Fire Department to share resources with the Johnson County Med-Act emergency service center. Under the agreement, the fire department and the county would share use of Fire Stations 2, 3, 4 and 5. In exchange, the county would pay $12 for each square foot of the space it occupied in each station to cover operating and utility costs.
