A special Salem Town Board meeting set for Tuesday to consider an agreement to provide emergency medical services to Silver Lake has been cancelled.
The reason for the cancellation was not immediately available.
The timing of the meeting is key. On Wednesday, the Silver Lake Village Board approved contracting with Salem for EMS services. The current contract for EMS with Silver Lake Rescue Squad Inc. expires at the end of March.
UPDATE 11:30 a.m. — I was able to catch up with Salem town Chairman Diann Tesar at the town’s Easter Egg hunt event at Community Park. She said she has no plans to reschedule a special meeting next week. The matter could wait until the Salem board’s next regularly scheduled meeting on April 8. However, if Silver Lake finds it is going to be without EMS in the interim, she would then schedule a special meeting.
What a mess Silver Lake has created!
Interesting how the meeting was cancelled without a reason given.
Is it possible that it is because no one has seen the “ NEW†contract yet?
Maybe not even the town board?
Hopefully either Silver Lake or Salem will release it soon to the media.
LOL…. my gosh…… “conspiracy theorist,” abound!!!! small rural government runs at a snails pace… many still believe a “handshake” is still accepted.. so before you go viewing the Zapruder film…..lets let it play it’s course… if not resolved in a couple of weeks …. than we can start looking into 45 year old closed CIA documents ..
If the Silver Lake’s contract expires at the end of March, they will need to have a special meeting! Or do they expect Silver Lake Rescue to help them out after giving them the boot. Sounds like someone worked this plan without getting Salem on board…………..
CITIZEN WHAT DID YOU EXPECT THERE IS A FABER ON THERE BOARD,DID YOU THINK IS WAS GOING TO FLY RIGHT THROUGH!
What an approprite time for the Salem Rescue contract to take effect. April 1, isn’t the April Fool’s day? Well maybe for the Silver Lake village board. At least six of them are fools!!!!
