Updated: January 7, 2009
Governor Holden`s most recent budget cuts in Missouri could cause problems for your local fire department. Missouri Governor Bob Holden announced he will be with-holding over 200-thousand dollars that was supposed to go to free training for firefighters. This has caused the cancellation of 73 classes through out Missouri. Ten of which were to be held in southwest Missouri. Chief Nimmo says without the funding there`s almost no way rural departments such as his will be able to train their firefighteres. Reported By: Jennifer Grannan
