CHIEF THACKER, CARMEL FIRE DEPARTMENT. JUST A LITTLE BACK STORY HERE. SO WE, IN MARCH OF LAST YEAR, WE ADDED AN ADDITIONAL AMBULANCE INTO SERVICE AT STATION 342. THE UNIT THAT WENT IN SERVICE WAS A -- HAD BEEN A BACKUP. SO WE NOW HAVE FIVE FRONT LINE, IT'S RUNNING AS A FRONTLINE AMBULANCE. WE KEEP TWO SPARE, BECAUSE WE HAVE ONE FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE OR EMERGENCY SERVICE. SO THE ONE AT 342 WAS ORIGINALLY PLACED INTO RESERVE IN 2022. WE BROUGHT IT BACK OUT OF RESERVE STATUS SO THAT WE COULD RUN A FIFTH AMBULANCE, AND NOW WE'RE LOOKING TO REPLACE THAT ONE AGAIN, WITH THIS UNIT HERE. AND ADDITIONAL, I WAS WORKING WITH -- WITH LEGAL. THE DOCUMENT SAYS DELIVERY IN 2028. BUT THERE WAS A LOCAL COMMUNITY THAT WASN'T ABLE TO SATISFY THEIR SPOT, SO WE'RE GOING TO BE MOVING UP.
