2015 KME ENGINE The Fire Department established a committee to research and recommend a Dealer and Apparatus Vendor for the purchase of a new fire engine. Chief Martin established the committee of Captain Scott Cizek who served as the chairman with supporting members including Engineers Brien Reinke and Ken Marshal, along with Firefighters Don Gregory and Chris Ely. Oversight was provided by Chief Martin and Division Chief Huston. The committee was encouraged by Chief Martin to focus on four key goals for the purchase of this fire engine. They include; 1) Firefighter Safety, 2) Equipped with fire-rescue equipment meeting our service delivery needs for the customer, 3) Provide resources that compliment or assist our current staffing levels, 4) Service / Repairs after the sale with a focus on vendors within 50 miles of Branson.
