Talk:Indianapolis Fire Department

Mergers with township departments

The following text was originally in the Indianapolis article, but was removed by another user, probably because it was too much detail for that article . I think it ought to be included in this article, but doing so will require some editing to make it flow. It also needs some references, which I don't have offhand.

Historically there was a fire department maintained by each suburban township, which provided service to the areas of the townships outside of the pre-Unigov city limits and the corporate limits of the excluded cities. In January 2007, by a resolution jointly passed by the Washington Township Board and by the Indianapolis City-County Council, the Washington Township Fire Department was merged into the City of Indianapolis Fire Department. In July 2007, by a similar resolution between the City-County Council and the Warren Township Board, the Warren Township Fire Department was also merged into the city fire department. In an effort to resolve upcoming budget shortfalls in 2010, Perry Township became the third township to merge with the Indianapolis Fire Department effective August 1, 2009. All of the career fire-fighting personnel and emergency medical services personnel were absorbed into the city department. Franklin Township began pursuing a potential merger of its fire department in July 2009 as well as Lawrence Township in November 2009.
