Genesee County MI Board of Commissioners 12/04/2007

Genesee County MI Board of Commissioners 12/04/2007

Ambulance service and The Broome Center.

This was a very interesting meeting. Much of this post will be based on the public opinion at the meeting.

Apparently the Board of Commissioners would like to create a one provider per area ambulance service. The audience and speakers for this discussion included paramedics, a minister, firefighters and the public. The majority does not want Genesee County to control community ambulance issues.

The feeling in the room was by implementing this idea, free market enterprising would not exist. A consultant was hired to evaluate the situation; the consultants report was never heard.

Many of the EMS people stated radios were purchased for them by a grant. It was said these radio's are sitting a room and not giving to the EMS people for use. It was stated that the real problem lies with the current 911 system. Too many people call 911 for non life threatening issues. Maybe the counsel should think about a 311 system for non life threatening calls, but need attention right now (accidents).

A resident talked about how the EMS people need GPS. They witness ambulances turning around because maps are wrong or the drive just didn't really know where the address was.

It was stated a sole provider would eventually cause taxpayer money to increase.

Another hot topic was The Broome Center. The state would like to close this facility. The Broome Center building is owned by the Career Alliance, Inc. Career Alliance had an issue with an AE allegedly mishandling funds, local, state and federal.

The Broome Center is located in area that has seen better days. The people that live in this area need The Broome Center to sustain a community environment. The Broome center has many helpful agencies that assist people find jobs, provide day care, education programs. We cannot lose this vital organ in an area that needs this assistance. I can not begin to list the all the programs and function this vital center offers. Please write Jennifer Granholm: Governor Jennifer M. Granholm
