New fire SCBA equipment purchase
Summary
The Fire District board bought ~$994,000 in new Draeger self-contained breathing apparatus because 2024 state legislation made the old Scott packs non-compliant and they were already at end of life. The new packs last 10-14 years and can be serviced in-house.
