The Village of Bald Head Island
merged it's Firefighter/Paramedic and police departments in July
2009. This merger created the new Department of Public
Safety.
The purpose was to increase
response capabilities and to afford a higher level of customer
service without a high increase in costs. We now have five
Public Safety Officer on duty 24-hours per day. Staff are
being cross-trained to handle fire, police and medical
emergencies.
This merger will afford a
future savings by not requiring two (2) staff to do two(2)
separate jobs. Each staff can perform all functions
necessary to deal with an emergency situation.
