Board approves $9,300 purchase for fire hoses and nozzles; promotions expected after exams
Summary
The board approved the fire department's request to purchase 12 sections of hose and updated nozzles for $9,300 from Conway Shield; the department also reported lieutenant oral boards and pending promotions.
Rich McMahon (identified in the transcript as Rich McMahon) told the board the department needs 12 sections of hose and updated non-pistol-grip nozzles to replace worn equipment and outfit its engines. “So I'm asking for that, and that quote is $9,300,” he said.
Trustees moved to approve the purchase from Conway Shield and voted affirmatively by roll call during the meeting. McMahon also described personnel updates: two lieutenant candidates passed written tests and will hold oral boards on Jan. 8; pending successful completion, McMahon said he will request promotions at the January board meeting.
