The City currently has Seagrave Fire Apparatus and these
units have worked very well. The City Shop is also capable
of keeping some parts in stock due to having more than one
Seagrave unit. This enables us to get the Fire Apparatus
repaired as quick as possible. Therefore, there is less
time the equipment is out of service when repairs are needed.
