Grant brings new $450,000 Fire Engine to Fillmore Fire
Fillmore Fire Chief Rigo Landeros indicated that the Fillmore Fire Department took possession of a new fire engine last week on Tuesday, September 30th, that will replace a 25-year-old engine that did not meet NFPA’s current standards.  The department purchased the $450,000 engine with a Community Development Block Grant approved by the City Council.  This new modern fire engine will help Fillmore Fire Department provide the best service possible to the citizens of Fillmore, along with help fighting fires during mutual-aid operations in the county and across the state.
