Voters who live way up north of Luther in Logan County will decide on a measure to bring ambulance service to the county, even in the far southeast corner, north of Luther, an area beset by poor road conditions and a lack of accurate residential mapping.
The Logan County Commissioners approved the measure to go to a vote of the people in August. Read more about it here.

No word yet on how the service would be provided for residents in this part of Logan County. The Luther Register will pursue more information about the measure.
