summary
This amendment replaces the substance of the bill, which applies only to York County. It changes the title and removes language in current law that provides that a county may provide rescue services through the sheriff's department and deputies and instead provides that each county may provide rescue services to the entire county, omitting municipalities that ask to be excluded, or by municipal-county contracts to municipalities that enter into contracts as long as county tax revenues are not used to support the services. It also makes minor nonsubstantive technical changes to reflect current usage.
