The Washington City Council took a step toward establishing a city emergency medical services agency during their meeting Tuesday.
Mayor Jaron Rosien explained that the council formed an EMS study committee less than two years ago to examine the idea of establishing a first-responder unit under the fire department to supplement the county ambulance service. The committee’s work was somewhat delayed by the pandemic, but now City Administrator Brent Hinson says the city should be ready to start this service July 1st, “The way we have this envisioned this will be a new division within the fire department. There’ll be essentially an assistant fire chief for EMS that reports to the fire chief and is in charge of the operations of that division. Certainly it will be something that works hand in hand with our fire department and our ambulance service countywide, and I think that we’ve really come a long way and we’ve had a lot of good discussion.”
One person has died as a result of a home explosion that occurred in the city of Washington Monday.
Fire Chief Brendan DeLong says that 68-year-old George Carpenter died on Thursday as a result of the explosion that occurred at 1114 East Washington Street around 4 a.m. Monday. Carpenter and one other occupant of the home were transported to University of Iowa Hospital and Clinics, and the home was a total loss. DeLong says the incident remains under investigation by the State Fire Marshal’s Office as a gas explosion, and no further details are available at this time. The Washington and Ainsworth fire departments, Washington Police Department, Washington County Ambulance Service, Washington Public Works, Iowa Department of Transportation, and Alliant Energy responded to the scene. KCII will bring you more information as it becomes official.
