MARCS discussion

Van Wert County Emergency Management Director Rick McCoy (left) talks about the MARCS (Multi-Agency Radio Communications System) radios being sought by the county during a meeting with the Van Wert County Board of Commissioners this past week. With him is W.D. Miller of the Radio Hospital in Findlay. County officials feel that the system is needed, but the cost to implement it is just too high at the present time. More discussion is planned. (Dave Mosier/Van Wert independent)
