Morning. Four metro Fire Departments are considering a merger plan. Elias lam looking at the map, you can see the boundaries shared by waukee, clive, urbandale, and west des moines.

Clives facing the same issue in the same area. And at the end of the day, it just doesnt make sense for clive to build a fire station and urbandale to build one two miles apart. Elias theres currently no time line for when the changes would be implemented. West des moines currently has the largest staff, while waukee is the smallest of the four looking at the proposal.
