FOLSOM BOROUGH AND FIRE OFFICIALS MEET IN COURT AFTER DEPARTMENT SHUT DOWN
MAYS LANDING -- Folsom Borough and fire officials met in court Thursday afternoon after the department was abruptly shut down last week. The hearing was held to address the borough's order to keep the department from selling or removing any of its equipment or property.
A judge issued modest restraints in the case, saying the fire trucks are the property of the borough. The fire company cannot transfer their real estate or any of their equipment without approval, but the department's lawyer said the company has no intention to do so.
The court battle comes after city council voted to enter into a shared services agreement with the nearby Collings Lakes Fire Department.
Another hearing between the two parties is scheduled for March 1st at 3 p.m.
