Fire Station Staffing Falls Short of 24-Hour EMS

The new staffing plan brings career firefighters back to the Greenbelt station weekdays from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. starting October 4 — but still no 24/7 paramedic coverage. Council and the city manager say they'll keep pushing; the bottleneck is the fire academy's capacity and long EMT certification timelines.

Six months in, stop-sign violations are down 37%, from about 22,200 to 14,000 per week. Council discussed making the report public and a resident suggested a community meeting to explain how citations are issued.
