The last Flint fire station distributing water to city residents will stop doing it by the end of this week.
Michigan National Guardsmen have been handing out cases of bottled water and filters at the fire station on Martin Luther King for months.
Gen. Greg Vadnais leads the Michigan National Guard. He credits the public’s support for the guard’s ability to respond to the city’s drinking water crisis.
“It’s really helped us to be able to complete our mission to provide the resources to them that they needed,” Vadnais sais last week.
The National Guard’s mission is coming to an end in Flint. But Flint residents will fill the void as paid employees at nine community distribution centers.
