Maybe the 9 PAPD cops fired can apply here

Ladder 15 & Engine 33 don't appear to have any modification (at first glance). The station doesn't seem that out of the ordinary in terms of design.
As a side note, this house was home to Lt. Edward Walsh of Engine Co. 33 and Michael Kennedy of Ladder Co. 15 who were killed in the line of duty on the afternoon of March 26th while fighting a nine alarm fire on Beacon Street.

Call me crazy....." NYPD POLICE" New York City Police Dept Police......Isnt that Internal affairs????

And you wonder why you can't get people to volunteer. Its BS like that.

Sorry, let me clarify......if they are licensed to operate in NY.....why are people bitching?

Thanks Seth for the update and photos. I certainly hope that Engine 298 (Old Engine 306) doesn't end up in the YFD Special Operations Graveyard like the "Restored Truck 5" is currently residing !!! (I hope that someone places this rig (Engine 298) along with that restored Truck 5 in the eventual YFD Muesum (whereever that will be). Both rigs are "CLASSICS"

Is this descision from another Judge who knows NOTHING about emergency services?????

How shocking...a subject with a gun in the City of Newburgh!!

I say fine the repeat offenders.
How often does an alarm come in and it actually turns out to be a fire or a robbery/burglar or something that actually requires a Police or Fire response?
A very small percentage of the time, probably a miniscule percentage. In my 36 years of Police/Fire experience, the number of actual emergencies that were reported solely by alarm is astonishingly small.
Some of the repeat offenders should have the service disconnected.
As far as the issue with the Group Homes that Firemoose827 touched on, the answer to that problem is: Hire more staff.
No one wants to hear about it, but the correct answer to that problem is a very simple solution, hire staff to watch the residents properly. The failings in staffing should not become a emergency response issue. Will anyone in a position of responsibility care about solving the actual issue? I do not think I have to answer that question.

CONGRATS and welcome aboard.

It is with great sadness that I announce that a good friend, Rob Arons passed away today (Sunday, 4/21).
Rob was a volunteer Ex-Chief with Fairview FD and he previously worked at 60 Control as Operator 611.
Rob "retired" from 60 so he could move to Florida, where he then worked as a dispatcher for Palm Beach County Fire-Rescue.
One of Rob's friends said it all when he wrote:
