Authorities are responding to a brush fire in the Park Hill area of downtown Hollister.

The San Benito County Board of Supervisors is expected to approve a contract with the City of Hollister for fire services for the 2013-14 fiscal year at a special meeting Tuesday at 9 a.m. Supervisors had agreed to pursue a contract with the city of Hollister at the April 2 meeting, after two hours of discussion and comments from the public.

Volunteers from the American Red Cross provided blankets to the members of a Hollister family that lost their home in a fire Sunday morning. The fire, on Park Street, between Sally and Prune streets, did not result in injuries, but the residents lost many of their belongings.

Look back for more, including the full letter from Quilter, later.
