Residents of San Pedro should rest easier tonight as they received a new
fire truck courtesy of the government of Belize. The vehicle comes as
the last of five, which were bought by the National Fire Service and
built to meet local specifications. Among other items purchased were
100 fire hydrants, which will be placed in Belize City and district
towns. Financing for the tenders came from a two million dollar capital
budget allocated to the National Fire Service for the 1999-2000 fiscal
year.

Marty,

Does this mean that there will actually be TWO working fire trucks on the island? What about the one they just got from North Carolina? The fire last year on Front was a narrowly averted tragedy, owing mostly to terrible equiptment but the best of intentions of the department to keep it working.

This IS good news for SP.

this is probably somewhat of a reaction to the troubles with the other fire engine during the fire last year on front street.

hopefully we have two now!
