Vinton County (OH) to Receive $425K Safety Grant for New Fire Equipment

Local fire departments will soon receive new safety equipment thanks to a $425,000 state grant headed the county's way.

The funds will pay for more than 60 new pieces of breathing apparatuses. Existing equipment is nearing the end of its shelf life and is generally too expensive to replace in bulk. This modern equipment will be lighter to carry and will benefit fire departments in McArthur, Hamden, Zaleski, Wilkesville and Harrison Twp.

Yonkers (NY) Working on $10 Million Downtown Firehouse

A replacement for the downtown Yonkers firehouse condemned in 2015 may rise across the street from the now-abandoned building.

City officials are working on a $10 million plan to build a new firehouse on a grassy area at the intersection Palisade Avenue and Elm and New School streets.

Mayor Mike Spano said he's including money for the new firehouse in his 2017-18 budget that he is expected to present in April. He called the existing former Fire Station 1 and fire headquarters at 5-7 New School St. "economically beyond repair."
