Fire Chief Paul Lolli said the new pumpers are fully equiped but will have the final installation of charging units for portable radios and flashlight, and other items, before being placed into service.

Lolli said one of the new pumpers will operate out of Station 81 downtown and the other pumper will be stationed at fire headquarters Roosevelt Boulevard.
The trucks will replace a 1997 pumper and a 2000 Quint ladder truck.
The city purchased both units from the Dublin-based manufacturer for $937,050 through the state purchasing contract.
The new trucks have 500-gallon tanks that can pump from fire hydrants up to 1,500 gallons a minute, Lolli said.
