As each community is slowly rebounding from the recession of the past couple of years, funds have been tight in all areas of government and any purchases are looked at under a very big microscope.

Taylorville Mayor Greg Brotherton and the Taylorville City Council recently purchased a new ambulance that has seen its disagreements among members of the community. But Mayor Brotherton has stood by their decision to make the purchase.

Mayor Brotherton reassures the community that the newly purchased ambulance would not take away from the current ambulances that are already in use. It would be determined by the type of call that comes in if the new ambulance would in fact be used.
