Sydney,
Thank you for reaching out.
I'm sure you can appreciate, as the Fire Chief, my first priority is to our staff. 'm currently working with Interim Assistant
County Administrator for Public Safety, Randy Webster, and Administrator Steve Gosnell, to review any and all concerns
recently brought forward.
At this time, it would be inappropriate for me to entertain this request, however, | ook forward to the opportunity to
address all of your questions once we finish reviewing any concerns from our staff.
Inthe meantime, | hope you will help emphasize that all of the leadership at Horry County Fire Rescue and Horry County
Government remains dedicated to our employees, and encourages anyone with concerns to be in touch with us directly
I would ask, if you decide to include my response in a story, you reproduce this email in its entirety.
Please be in touch with our Public Information Officer Tony for updates on this process.
Sincerely,
Joseph K. Tanner
