Gwinnett commissioners approved plans Tuesday to save $323,000 by remounting eight ambulances onto new chassis. Funds for the Gwinnett Fire and Emergency Services project will come from SPLOST.
Fire Chief Casey Snyder said the lifetime warranty on the Life Line compartment modules will be continued and the units will be refurbished to new condition with updated equipment and technology for use by emergency responders.
The department had previously saved $135,000 by reusing the aerial ladders from two old, high-maintenance fire trucks that were due for replacement. The existing ladders, which were still in good condition, were remounted on new fire trucks.
