We <br /> would use $7,000.00 to replace the department's aged and outdated drone, that we can <br /> no longer get parts for and so that we may add thermal imaging capability. We would <br /> also use $3,500.00 for roadway barricades needed to close roadways during emergency <br /> situations. We currently are tying up a fire truck. These barricades are the same that the <br /> Department of Transportation uses. These barricades would enable us to clear up our <br /> trucks and increase scene safety. <br /> If you need additional information, I can be reached at 919-732-7911. <br /> Thank you, <br /> Steve Summey, President <br /> 206 S.Churton St. <br /> Hillsborough,NC 27278 www.ORFD.net <br /> (919)732-7911 admin@o net <br /> Fax: (919)644-1338 <br />
