Girard could merge paid and volunteer fire departments. The city of Girard currently has two fire departments within its city limits: The Girard City Fire Department and the District 4 Fire Department. Girard Fire has paid workers and District 4 is run by the county and is volunteer based. In the open forum held today at city hall, one of the main concerns brought up was the quality of the department if they were to merge. “They do a fantastic job. But I want a higher level, more funding, more support for the protection of my kids,” said Cordell Harley, a Girard resident.
