 Today's Bangor Daily News reports other communities have taken steps to bring emergency medical services under municipal control. Rockport's Fire Chief Jason Peasley says a municipal ambulance service would give the town 100 percent control over the personnel we hire, their training, their education. Peasley adds it would give the town control over, quote, the equipment that we have, the response times, and when and where not to call on other towns to provide mutual aid.
