O.C. Fire Department Outlines Vehicle Replacement Schedule
(May 20, 2011) The Ocean City Fire Department is working to improve efficiency by making sure all the fire trucks have the same layout and consolidating vehicles so there are no more than what is necessary. A new addition to the fire and rescue fleet will be a firefighting boat, as the City Council approved the purchase of the vessel during Monday’s meeting.
New equipment!!! A fire boat from the same Canadian company that Salisbury is using!!! Replacing equipment unnecessarily like Salisbury!! Why is our tax money being wasted like this!! What an outrage. Is this the doings of a 2 hatter??!!
Well I do believe Ocean City would benefit more with a fire boat than Salisbury ever would. I guess it has something to do with being surrounded by water but what do I know.
OC fire boat wont leave the inlet to go in the ocean. Bayside only? do they really need one as big as they are getting, Nope? Do they really need one with a Coast Guard Station there, No, Are they trying to keep up with the " Jones " (Salisbury) Yes.
Ocean City had 117 water rescues the last 4 years and 5 boat fires, most of which MNRP and Coast Gaurd were unavialble. They are replacing 3 engines with two, they were over 25 years old. Continue on nay-sayers
