<div>Royston Fire Chief Jon Lorentson is praising the teamwork between his department and other City departments and fire stations Monday for averting a structural fire.According to the Chief at about 11:45 a.m. Monday, the Royston Fire Department was alerted to a smoke filled commercial structure on Cook Street.Franklin Springs & Canon Fire Departments were also notified to respond as mutual aid.When firefighters arrived, several entered the building while other crews laddered the building and made access to the roof.An inspection found that an AC/Heat unit on the roof of the building was damaged, and wires inside the unit were burning.Lorentson said a facility maintenance crew was also on scene doing other unrelated work.Fire personnel were able to work with facility maintenance and shut down the roof unit, clearing the affected areas of smoke or other hazards.The Chief said the incident showcases the need for training and inner departmental coordination.He added that coordinating multiple units on the scene of a large commercial operation can quickly become confusing and operational qualities can break down.Lorentson said however that Monday morning, all departments involved worked well together, establishing a working command and allowing that command structure to function smoothly and efficiently.The Chief also thanked the Franklin Springs and Canon Fire Departments for their assistance.</div>
