A joint public meeting including representatives from Ada-Liberty EMS, Liberty Township, the Village of Ada and two residents who live on N. Gilbert St. was held on December 19 to discuss the anticipated impact of ambulance traffic on the street when a new ambulance bay becomes operational.
The meeting was chaired by Ada council member Jason Campbell who began proceedings with the comment that he is part of an LLC that owns properties directly across Gilbert from the EMS station.
The discussion centered on street parking and whether signs or lights would be needed to alert pedestrian and vehicle traffic of EMS runs.
EMS Chief Tom Miller provided information on the process that resulted in the decision to build a new ambulance bay and remodel the existing 1984 EMS building to provide sleeping quarters for crew members.
