The Corning (CA) City Council will discuss Tuesday whether it should approve the Volunteer Fire Department’s request to add a 2006 International Harvester 4×2 Fire Engine to its fleet, RedBluffDailyNews.com reported.
This engine is part of the Federal Surplus Program and was acquired from the U.S. Forest Service. Since the engine’s color is green, the fire department has a year to paint it red, the report said.
The city staff said they are working on scheduling a date for volunteers to travel to Los Angeles County to get the engine and drive it to Corning, the report said.
The volunteers will pay the cost to paint and fully equip the engine with minimal cost to the city, according to the report.
