City officials recently approved the purchase—not to exceed $548,502—of a new Sutphen custom pumper for Springfield (OH) Fire Rescue, reports springfieldnewssun.com.
The new apparatus, which will replace one that’s nearly 30 years old, will take at least 23 months to build and will be housed at one of the three future stations, the report says. The three new stations will be at South Limestone Street, Burt Street, and an undetermined location.
The predecessor is a 28-year-old apparatus currently housed at the Selma Road station, the report says. One of the three new facilities will replace the Selma Road station.
