The Fire Department’s reserve rescue vehicle won’t be revived after an electrical fire that started while firefighters were loading a cancer patient into the truck earlier this month. The fire caused too much damage for the 12-year-old truck to be repaired. “An outside contractor said it would be throwing good money after bad,” Fire Chief Robert Lloyd said. The 2006-model rescue vehicle has been retired and the town will consider options for a reserve vehicle that would be used whenever one of the two main rescue vehicles is out of service for repairs. The town actually operated with one rescue vehicle for a few days around the Fourth of July, when the south end rescue had to have a new compressor put in so the patient area would be air conditioned. Fire Chief Robert Lloyd said patient compartments of rescue vehicles have to be air conditioned.
