From what I'm hearing, (note this is all water cooler talk amongst field crews who have their own various sources....I'm just repeating what those rumors are here) LA Co EMS will be changing the actual EOA's, redrawing the map on them, splitting some up so that there will be more total zones, i.e. Malibu and Calabassas (currently part of Zone 4 with Hawthorne, Inglewood, Gardena, etc) will become it's own EOA, and that Paramount (currently in Care's Zone 6) will end up in the Carson zone with the redrawing of the map lines.....and none of the guys here expect to actually lose any of those zones. Instead there's also a rumor that Care doesn't want Huntington Park and Florence and the other cities north of South Gate west of the 710 so they may cut a deal to tack those on our South Gate/Lynwood zone in exchange for something (though even amongst the rumor mill, that's still treated as a lower grade rumor if that makes any sense lol)
Also floating around our crews is talk that next year Compton FD will switch over and use us (McCormick) on all transports (a la Torrance and Redondo Beach) and the way people are talking, they're saying like it's a confirmed done deal, just no actual sources on any of this though.
However on the company website where the station addresses and posting locations are published, they list an address for a station in Paramount, near the Paramount/Compton city lines but nothing official has come down about that so we'll see.
