T6 is in service.

Heartland is also getting a new OES rig which is going to station 13, OES406 is its unit number.

New rigs are going to 14 and 16, should be in service soon.

Taken from their Facebook, looks somewhat identical to B3.

A very unfortunate situation.

Well im not entirely sure what the mission of the vehicle is, your "rescue support rig" idea seems about right but Bit Pros which is who the vehicle belongs to is a company that offers mechanical support to fire departments out in the field.

Its a mechanic rig. https://mcbfire.com/deliveries/15-crane-rescue-service-body-bit-pros-fire-services/?recent=1 http://www.bitprosinc.com/fire-services.html The vehicle can be seen here at around 6:23

Black rims always make an apparatus look sharp.

Speaking of trucks, San Miguel is looking for a new truck for 15s which has been out of service for a few weeks now.

DATE: January 8, 2019 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council members FROM: Nahid Razi, Purchasing Agent SUBJECT: Purchase of Fire Engine RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council adopts the next Resolution in order, and authorizes the Purchasing Agent, in accordance with Municipal Code 3.20.010(C)(5), to execute an agreement with Pierce Manufacturing, Inc. for the purchase of a Pierce Triple Combination Pumper in the amount of $758,566.37. BACKGROUND: On June 26, 2018, the City Council approved the vehicle replacement budget, which included the replacement of a 12-year old fire engine pumper. On December 11, 2018, the City Council authorized an increase to the budgeted fire engine due to an unforeseen price increase. Pierce Manufacturing, Inc. is the supplier of standardized fire engine equipment for Heartland Fire and Rescue fleet because the equipment has proven to be very reliable with minimal down time for repairs. The City of Los Angeles awarded RFQ No. 4828 – Fire Truck, Triple Combination Apparatus on June 1, 2016 to Pierce Manufacturing, Inc. Upon review of the City of Los Angeles’s bid for fire engines, it was determined that the equipment available under this contract will meet the needs of the City and is compatible with existing equipment. The City of Los Angeles bid allowed the successful bidder to permit other public agencies to "piggyback" onto its bid award. Piggybacking is a type of intergovernmental cooperative purchase in which an agency is extended the same pricing and terms of a competitively-bid contract entered into by another agency. Municipal Code 3.20.010(C)(5) authorizes the city to acquire equipment in cooperation with another agency. FISCAL IMPACT: The fiscal impact of this purchase is $758,566.37. Sufficient funds are available in the Fiscal Year 2018-19 Annual Budget Vehicle/Equipment Replacement (605000).
