ONEONTA – Donald Lammano and Carol Ann Malz joined the Town of Oneonta’s Fire District #1 Board of Commissioners this evening.

After years of low – or no – turnout, almost 200 voters turned out this evening to vote in the new commissioners, who will soon be locked in negotiations, trying to ensure the continuance of fire protection from the city’s Oneonta Fire Department in the new year.

Incumbents Fred Volpe (52 votes) won a five-year term, Mike Butler (55) a four-year term, Johna Peachin (51) a three-year term, Lammano (51) a two-year term, and Malz (33) a one-year term.
