Va. Supreme Court rules in favor of Dumfries rescue squad, overturns win for Board of Supervisors

The Prince William Board of County Supervisors does not have the power to dissolve the Dumfries-Triangle Rescue Squad, the Virginia Supreme Court ruled today.

The decision overturns a decision by a lower Prince William County Circuit Court that previously ruled in the county's favor, that asserted the rescue squad's "very existence is at the whim of the county," court documents state.

Prince Wiliam County filed a lawsuit against the rescue squad in 2018, asking a court to dissolve the organization and to allow it to redistribute its equipment and other assets for use at other fire stations around the county. The suit followed the county's decision to remake its fire and rescue system, putting a larger emphasis on paid career staff over volunteers.
