Salisbury Sues Breakaway Fire Company

wikipedia

Salisbury and the breakaway volunteer firefighters are at it again.

This time the city is suing to keep them from spending taxpayer money as well as funds that came from the Community Foundation of the Eastern Shore.

The city wants back property and funds that it says the volunteer fire company improperly took.

Finally, the Salisbury Daily Times reports that the city also wants an auditor to review Company 1’s records.

The paper was not able to immediately reach Cory Polidore, chief of Company One.

Mayor Jake Day as well as the city attorney Mark Tilghman declined to comment on the lawsuit.
