Background
The Fire Department requests to spend no more than $1,700,000 to purchase a Squad Engine from the Sutphen Fire Truck Manufacturer. This was approved in this year’s budget and this apparatus replaces both a fire engine and our squad. The $1,700,000 will be used for the purchase of the vehicle, for necessary adjustments during the pre-build process and for equipment to place the unit in service.
