These recommended changes related to such items <br />as the responsibilities of the Fire Marshal, the posting of the names <br />of the qualified drivers in the department, the deletion of provision <br />pertaining to first responders, and the requirement for an electric <br />siren. <br /> The Board also reviewed recommended changes to the Fire Protec- <br />tion Resolution as outlined in a letter from Mr. William L. Mills, <br />III, attorney representing the Winecoff Volunteer Fire Department. <br />These recommended changes related to such items as the liability <br />insurance coverage for the departments, the term "qualified drivers", <br />the authority of the fire marshal, the electric siren requirement, the <br />five percent administrative charge by the County for the collection of <br />the taxes, and the 90 day written notice requirement for the termina- <br />tion of the contract by either party. <br /> Mr. Harvey Morris, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the <br />Odell Volunteer Fire Department, objected to the Fire Protection <br />Resolution, stating that no members of the Board of Directors of the <br />Department had been involved in the original planning process for the <br />Resolution. He stated he interpreted the Resolution as someone <br />wanting to tell the Board of Directors of Odell Volunteer Fire Depart- <br />ment how to run the department. <br /> Ms. Melanie Overcash, Secretary of the Board of Directors of the <br />Odell Volunteer Fire Department, strongly opposed the Fire Protection <br /> <br /> <br />
