The moores mill volunteer fire department called an emergency meeting tonight where they considered reducing the calls they respond to now in order to preserve supplies for later.

Firefighters voted to keep responding to all the calls to serve the community.

During tonight's vote, some firefighters voiced their opinions, saying they think they should save the resources for medical calls in the district only.

Others say they signed up to respond to all calls including medical calls outside of the district and they dont plan on stopping.

Right now the fire department says it has seen an increase in calls of people being sick.
