Title: SES unit has own crisis, Tallangatta SES
Post by: bajdas on July 08, 2011, 11:07:09 PM

We all complain about lack of facilities, equipment, paperwork, etc, etc

This issue with Tallangatta SES (I think Victoria near NSW border) places it in perspective for me.

Reminds me when councils paid different amounts to support Units/Brigades. Some rish, some poor. I am glad for the Emergency Services Levy to even that playing field.

Tallangatta is a small town near lake Hume (top end of the murray for those who don't know where it is). The area is suffering from the damage from multiple floods earlier this year & yes you are lucky to have the levy!
