**Fire Commissioner James Dutton **

“For our department, the best choice for fire apparatus is also the easiest. We’ve purchased 7 vehicles from Pierce, and we’re located just 7 miles from Churchville Fire Equipment. The quality is outstanding. The down time for maintenance is next to nothing. My team is truly given every advantage to fight fire safely and effectively.”
