    HVFD has announced they have received an order from the Town of Mamaroneck FD for 2 Seagrave engines.

     

    One will be to replace Engine 37, a 2011 KME which was catastrophically damaged by flood waters during Hurricane Ida. The other will be to replace Engine 51, a 2007 KME. The TMFD has a long history of using Seagrave apparatus, and these new engines will join a 2019 Seagrave 100' Rear Mount Ladder 19.

     

    Thanks again to @LFD171 for the info.

    New Trunked Radio System Cutover

    After many months of discussions, information sharing, planning and testing, the Westchester County
    Department of Emergency Services is excited to announce that we will be switching over to the new and
    enhanced P25 Digital Trunk Radio system on Wednesday, February 2, 2022.

    On February 2nd, starting at 10:00 AM, we will begin the transition process of moving from the old
    system to the new P25 digital system. By 12:00 PM, the entire “old” trunked radio system will be turned off, meaning any attempts to communicate on it will not work.


    As a precautionary measure, we will also be monitoring conventional frequencies of 46.26, 46.06 and UCALL40 if necessary.

    I don't know if it's going to be a demo, as pictured, or custom built. The demo pictured in Hendrickson's post is very nicely equipped.

    WCPD / Seasonal Park Rangers
     
    WCPD is accepting applications for seasonal park rangers to patrol County parks this summer. Applications are due by February 11 and are available online at the Department of Public Safety’s web pages under Employment.
     
    Uniformed park rangers work under the supervision of County Police officers to maintain a safe and enjoyable atmosphere in the county’s parks. They assist park users, provide information on park rules and procedures, help in searches for lost children, perform basic first aid on occasion and make regular security checks of buildings and facilities.
     
    First-time park rangers are paid $16 hourly. Salaries are higher for those who have worked as a ranger for the County before.
    To qualify, applicants must be a high school graduate, at least 19 years of age, a U.S. citizen, and possess a valid New York State driver’s license by the time of appointment. Preference in hiring may be shown to Westchester residents.
     
    Accepted candidates must attend a paid 121-hour peace officer training program at the Westchester County Police Academy.
    Commissioner Thomas A. Gleason said persons interested in law enforcement careers often benefit greatly from the experience gained by working as summer park rangers.
     
    “Park Rangers receive Police Academy training and work under the supervision of Westchester County Police officers,” Gleason said. “This provides a unique view into the law enforcement field and some of the potential career opportunities that exist.
