A pending agreement means state lines won’t be a barrier to first responders when the worst happens. At next Monday’s Galena City Council meeting, approval for an updated “mutual aid agreement” with several neighboring communities is expected to be voted on. Galena has worked with several of these communities in the past, and Mayor Ashley Groves says this updated agreement would make sure they were all on “the same page” with when and how to respond. The agreement would be with several communities, like Columbus and Baxter Springs, even reaching across state lines to Joplin and Carl Junction.
