As Moulton Fire Chief Ryan Jolly continues to seek ways to obtain an aerial fire engine for the City of Moulton, Courtland Fire Chief Scott Norwood weighs in on the subject and clarifies information concerning the purchase of an aerial truck for Courtland in 2000.
In a Moulton City Council work session last week, Jolly told the council Brindlee Mountain Fire Apparatus of Marshall County is willing to even-trade a 1999 75-foot Pierce Aerial truck for Moulton’s 2006 Ford F650 rescue truck. He also told the Council at the time, the truck would be sold “as is,” with no warranties.
Jolly said he and Mayor Roger Weatherwax viewed the truck on Monday and discussed a warranty deal with the company.
“There were some concerns over a warranty, so we went over there to Brindlee Mountain so we could work out some plan so we could get a little bit of a warranty. The biggest reason we went was so the mayor could actually see it,” said Jolly.
