🚒 NEW APPARATUS ALERT! 🚒
We have some exciting news to share! The Holts Summit Fire Protection District has officially placed an order for a brand-new Pierce aerial apparatus. This new truck will replace our current 2003 Pierce aerial, which was purchased in 2014 and has served our community faithfully for the last 12 years.
None of this would be possible without YOU—our incredible community. Thanks to your overwhelming support in renewing our recent bond, we are able to replace apparatus in our aging fleet and keep our district moving forward.
WHY THIS MATTERS:
• Enhanced Safety: The new Pierce aerial comes equipped with advanced, modern safety features designed to provide maximum protection for our firefighters when they respond to emergencies.
• Reliable Service: The need for apparatus to assist with response to elevated structures has grown since the passing of the initial bond in 2008. Replacing a 23-year-old apparatus ensures we maintain the high-quality, dependable fire protection and rescue services you expect and deserve.
• Future Ready: This investment keeps our department equipped to handle the growing needs of Holts Summit and the surrounding area for years to come.
A committee formed by the Fire Chief has worked diligently to ensure this apparatus meets the needs of the community, keeps our responders safe, and will protect us for the next 20+ years.
From the all of us at the District, thank you, voters! Your continued support ensures that we can protect you effectively while keeping our responders safe on the job.
Stay tuned for updates as production begins and we get closer to welcoming this new apparatus to the District!New Pierce Order! 🚒
Holts Summit Fire Protection District is adding a new Pierce Enforcer 100-Foot Ascendant Mid-Mount Platform to their fleet. Equipped with a 2,000-g.p.m. pump and TAK-4 front and rear suspension, this apparatus is built to perform when it matters most. Thanks to the Pierce and MacQueen stock program, Holts Summit will take delivery in just 4–5 months.
Thank you to Chief Jason Turner, the Board of Directors, and the entire department for placing your trust in MacQueen and Pierce. #BuiltToPerform #PierceMFG #MacQueen
