Rochester, NY, November 4, 2026 —
Property owners within the Greece section of the Hilton Fire District have voted in favor of establishing a new ambulance district. This decision paves the way for the Town of Parma to enter into a contract with an emergency medical services (EMS) provider. The agreement will facilitate the stationing of an ambulance within the Village of Hilton.
The primary objective behind the creation of this new district is to decrease emergency response times for an estimated 400 households located in the northwest area of Greece. The initiative aims to ensure quicker access to vital medical assistance for these residents.
Financially, the cost associated with the new ambulance district is projected to be $0.1357 for every $1,000 of assessed property value. This cost is expected to be reflected on the 2027 tax bills for the affected property owners.
The specific EMS provider that the Town of Parma will contract with has not been publicly disclosed. Further details regarding the timeline for when the ambulance will be actively stationed and operational in the Village of Hilton are also pending.
