The Elk City Fire Department will see upgraded equipment in the future.
Including a new ambulance for the EMS service.
During the latest City Commissioner’s meeting, an approved bid of just under $288,000 for the ambulance was awarded to Wheeled Coach. Fire Chief Kyle Chervenka says grant dollars will help fund the purchase.
The remaining cost for the city was a budgeted item.
Other items approved for the fire department including two thermal imaging cameras for $15,000 and battery operated extrication tools for just over $28,700.
Both of those approved purchases were budgeted items as well.
