Broken Bow will be getting a new firetruck, possibly as early as this weekend.
At Tuesday s City Council meeting (04/13/21), the council voted to spend $159,900 to purchase a 1999 Pierce Dash fire truck with a 100 foot arm. The 22-year-old vehicle has 17,821 miles on it and has a 2,000 gallons per minute (GPM) pump.
The new purchase will replace city s 1977 ladder truck which has a 75 foot arm and a 1,250 GPM pump. The new truck also has a platform at the end of the arm as well as an air delivery system to deliver fresh air to the platform.
Broken Bow Fire Chief Jason Baum said it is the goal of the department to reach 3,500 GMP with two trucks. The two pumper trucks will remain in service. Equipment from the 1977 truck will be moved to the 1999 truck and the truck will most likely be sold.
