Related to Bob Figueroa?

the explanation I was given when I went to a commissioners meeting after they failed to show up at my house when I had a fire was that Somers has "special situations" that only their dispatchers can understand and handle..oh, and someone needs to be there to watch the security cameras

wow..you mean we might actually get trucks at our fires..since cc will send mutual aid after Somers never responds

This is uncommon for Somers, I have never heard of them failing to cover a FD call. (I am not listening at ALL times, obviously) Not as uncommon as you think. I had a fire at my house and they never showed..10 minutes after i called I got a chief with a landscapers truck..the head chiefs excuse..there was traffic..joke!

Not if we're lucky!!! Rangers suck!!! lol

well at least they are consistent..they covered the car too..had something similar to this several years back right across from HQ..lots of people in the house and all stacks covered..could have been ugly

Playland EMS is hiring EMTs for seasonal part time positions for the 2012 operating season..season runs May to Sept. anyone interested should attend the job fair at the Westchester County Center on Saturday March 10 from 9am to 1pm..for more information you can contact Bill Wiegelman at 914-755-4591 or waw2@westchestergov.com

I would tie some strings to him and carry him in the Thanksgiving parade

Its the same as some departments that list their response times as 3-4 minutes when that was actually when the Chief in his landscapers truck showed up..the rig shows 10 minutes later or more..or even worse..not at all

Remember him well. Nice guy, tough cop. We didnt like seeing him show up if we were doing something wrong as kids

My point is it never should have been a "swift water rescue" It was a dog. What are you doing dropping a guy out of a helicopter into a rain swollen river, putting his life on the line for a dog. Then to boot, he gets injured by the dog

Certainly hope you never become an officer

Totally assinine! 50+ firefighters for an hour and a helicopter. Whoever was in charge of this operation should be called in on the carpet and read the riot act. Total misuse of manpower and resources as well as putting people in danger for what? A freaking dog

its a conflict of interest for any volunteer to also be a commissioner

No, its not as important as school sports. How come you dont see anyone raising money for the school EDUCATION programs that got cut or any jobs that were cut
