City Seeks Funds For Ailing Snorkel Fire Truck
City officials met with the Kansas Board of Tax Appeals in Topeka to request no fund warrants of 40000 for repairs to the Department of Public Safety snorkel fire truck. The 75 foot boom vehicle needs electrical and hydraulic overhauls and could be funded in the 1980 budget if approved. The truck, built in 1965 by Pittman Manufacturing, has been unreliable at fires and would be repaired by Causco if warrants are granted.
