First in, last out: Newton County Fire Department does more with less
Placeholder Image
In Newton County the trend of doing more with less has not limited itself to city hall and the detention center. The county fire department is also operating with less, but cutting the department’s budget doesn’t mean the amount of calls they answer have gone down with it. According to Chief Mike Satterfield, the NCFD answers between 4,500 and 5,000 calls for service a year.
