Sparwood will be purchasing a new heavy rescue truck for nearly $1.35 million.
It will replace their engine from 1999, which is at the end of its service life.
After taxes, the total cost is $1,346,758.71.
The district has chosen the Rosenbauer Commander heavy rescue truck due to its storage and functionality across a number of response scenarios.
District staff says it’s designed to optimize space and safety while responding to technical rescues, confined spaces incidents and motor vehicle incidents.
