    Ambulance tussle dominates QC MIKE ELLIS Questions about the ambulance service in eastern Carroll County livened up an otherwise uneventful Quorum Court meeting Monday evening. During public comments, Green Forest Fire Chief Tim Howard took issue with the service provided by Ozark EMS. “We’re going backwards instead of forwards,” he said. “We’ve gone back twenty years.” Howard said the fire department had to loan a cervical collar to an ambulance responding to a recent accident. Leon Cheatham, owner of Ozark EMS, said he had not heard about that incident, but noted that his ambulances passed state inspection last week. He said the company brought in two more ambulances last week, for a total of four paramedic trucks and one for transfers. He also passed out copies of reports showing Ozark’s response times. The state requires that a vehicle leave the station within two minutes after an emergency call, and Ozark averages 72 seconds. He also said the time en route to a call averaged less than 10 minutes, Blooming in season – The garden at the Crescent Hotel was abuzz with authors signing copies of their books last Sunday during the although it would take considerably longer to 11th annual Books in Bloom.
