My department had too many problems with the minitor 3's we got rid of all of them and went to 4's i have had a minitor 2 myself i wont give it up it works better than the new one's

Is there talk of replacing MA-13 or just getting rid of one brushtruck

you should keep it and bring it to musters with 182

As someone that has worked both as a fire dispatcher and now currently as a police dispatcher I we get 911 calls alot of them being accident or false calls but when a medical or fire emergency comes in i do transfer it to the proper agency I have no problem doing so some times you cant transfer the call because you can bearly keep the person on the phone. You shouldnt take the main answering point away from the pd cause what's going to happen when you get a 911 call for a robbery or such your not going to send an engine obiviously there is alot of info they you might be able to get out of the caller no matter what the emergency. Some cities and villages and towns will not give up the 911 to a central point take yonkers for instance both the fire and PD are very busy agencies and might aswell be there own county. For the agencies that due get dispatched by fire control it is an asset because of the emd system. This is something that wont ever change.

Was a fire in the 2 car garage of 2 story dwelling one line stretched fire was knocked down quickly. Fire was not out like reported by state police arriving units found the bright orange glow coming from the garage no injuries. Good job done by all

Hey guys this does help us if you sit and think about it people will see the blue lights on the police car when we respond to calls with our lights on they will pullover faster. 2nd i am a police dispatcher the blue does help people see the police car during the day but also at night at accidents and such there have been many police cars hit this year and if the blue lights on the police car prevents one cruiser from getting hit and keeping a cop safe i am for it if you see around the state on the sp cars there are blue lights in the rear windows aswell as on the rear of the light bar so before you go off complaining think about it!

Fire was in the roof area and above the drop ceiling heavy smoke condition throughout the building was a good knock down by all involved
