==Ongoing Plans==
The Town of Grimsby entered into a 24-month pilot project with the Town of Lincoln in June 2021. The agreement will start with the integration of full-time executive, administrative, training, and fire prevention staff of Grimsby Fire Services with those of Lincoln Fire Rescue Service. If successful after the 24 months, the towns will consider a second phase which would fully integrate firefighting operations. The first phase commenced on October 1, 2021. The new department is named Niagara West Fire & Emergency Services.
