WCBC News has learned that an offer has been made to the six Allegany County EMS employees  who were recently let go due to the county’s budget constraints.  During the State of the County meeting held Tuesday morning at Allegany College of Maryland, County Administrator Jason Bennett said each of the six have been made an employment offer…

“We actually just formally made an offer back to all six to bring them back on. We’ve had some other attrition in our  EMS. We have had some other people leave and we have found sort of a way to balance out our overtime. So, we have made the offer to those folks to bring them back. We haven’t it announced it yet because we don’t know how many are going to take it. They have all been working in a part-time capacity since then – with us. So I think if all goes well, they will all be back.”
