GENEVA-ON-THE-LAKE — Village Fire Chief Tim Mills’ strong objection to the proposed fire and ambulance dispatching agreement with Saybrook Township thwarted plans to ink the deal Monday night, sending the safety committee back to meetings and forcing an emergency council meeting before April 1.

“I do have some concerns with Saybrook’s dispatching,” Mills said at Monday’s Village Council session. “The price is a good deal , but you get what you pay for.”

Council President Mike Baker said Saybrook Township’s price for dispatching is $750 more than last year, but, “still beat the pants off Geneva ’s price.”

Mills’ objection to the contract sent the safety committee and the rest f council scrambling to meet before the contract expiration. The safety committee will meet at 7:30 p.m. March 26 and council will hold a special session at 7 p.m. March 30 to vote on the measure.

After the meeting, Mills said he has no problem with Saybrook Township’ s dispatching, but felt he should have been consulted before the deal was on paper.

“I knew nothing about this (contract) until the day of (the vote),” M ills said. “I just want to be brought into it sooner. I don’t want to t take anything away from Saybrook’s dispatchers, I’m sure they do a fine job, but I am used to the dispatching out of Geneva and there are some big differences between the two.”

Mills is also looking to purchase state-of-the-art security locks on the doors at the fire department.

Mills said the doors have combination locks now and he is looking into card -swipe entry locks.

“I favor thumb print entry locks,” Mills said, “because, well , you always have your thumb with you.”

Mills said he doesn’t want firefighters scrambling to find swipe cards to gain entry to the building while responding to an emergency call.
