Cedar Knolls, New Jersey — January 7 — In order to address current emergency response demands and operational expenditures, Hanover Township Fire District 3 has scheduled a public hearing and Q&A session.

The amount of emergency calls has grown, according to district officials, putting additional strain on manpower, equipment, and equipment preparedness. The purpose of the hearing is to give the public a comprehensive understanding of the district's service delivery methods, the difficulties that modern fire districts face, and the elements that influence long-term planning. Public hearings are used to increase openness and provide locals a better understanding of how emergency services operate.
