Guest guest Posted July 26, 2009 Report Share Posted July 26, 2009 I do believe that Jim is right, because the county commissioner that is on GETAC said once during a meeting that a county cannot pass ordinances, because something was brought up about a county ambulance ordinance or something and she stated this. Now, they can pass certain things like burn bans and things like that.

The EMS provider for example wants to transport patients back to residence after dialysis, radiation, doctor's appointments even though the patient is not a citizen of said city. The officers of said city are trying to enforce the ordinance, however even they are not well versed on the ordinance. In case you are wondering the city is Harlingen and the provider is STEC.
