Long term planning for Emergency Services

Does Travis County Emergency Service District #2 want to work with the city of Pflugerville on a long-term emergency services plan? Listen to the May 31 meeting where long-term planning was attempted but ESD2 was unprepared and very reluctant to talk about it.

ESD2 wants the city to pay $2.7 million for ALS ambulance services, despite the fact that it has been funded for years through existing revenue streams of property taxes, sales taxes and fees. ESD2 has received millions more in sales taxes above projections and spent millions less than budget. They are well-funded, and their doomsday prediction never came true.
