Tabernacle Township officials are calling a special meeting on Monday to discuss the impending termination of the local rescue squad.

The meeting is set for 6:30 p.m. at the T abernacle Fire Department firehouse, 76 Hawkin Road, Tabernacle.

The township is considering a shared services agreement with neighboring Lumberton and Southampton Township.

The Tabernacle Rescue Squad would cease operations in November.

During the township committee meeting earlier this week, residents packed the firehouse to say they want to keep the township rescue squad.

Tabernacle Rescue Squad Chief George Jackson III also posted a letter on social media on Tuesday, thanking residents for their support.

“The township committee received your message LOUD and clear,” Jackson said in the letter.
