   Region Controller for SES Southern Highlands, Tony Casey made a special presentation to Yass Valley councillors prior to the Planning, Policy and Review meeting last week.
   
   He identified a number of crucial short term and long term issues affecting the viability of the local volunteer emergency organisation.
   
   He said the "severely run down" Unit headquarters in Laidlaw Street is completely inadequate for a professional emergency service to efficiently manage storm and flood operations in the area.
   
   "It is run down, not well-maintained and falling apart," Mr Casey said.
   
   "We could hardly run an emergency out of this facility."
   
   Mr Casey pleaded with councillors to see the urgency of the situation.
   
   "Your SES volunteers need your support and commitment to continue serving the Yass Valley community."
   
   "What was accepted as adequate 15-20 years ago is no longer acceptable today," Mr Casey stressed.
   ...
   "The volunteers of the Unit are professional and provide a first rate service to the community," Mr Casey said.
   ...
   "The volunteers cannot keep shaking the tin to keep the vehicles on the road," Mr Casey said.
