From Fire Service, Inc. @FireServiceIncStJohn:
Fire Service, Inc. would like to thank Fire Chief Gary Krienitz, Assistant Chief Mark Matkovich, and the City of Aurora Fire Department for their recent purchase of another Wheeled Coach Type 1 Ford F550 gas ambulance. Aurora has exclusively used Fire Service, Inc. and Wheeled Coach as their ambulance vendor of choice since 2010! This ambulance is customized to meet the operational requirements of the department, including a curbside forward entry and ergonomically located ALS cabinet, full aluminum interior cabinetry, patented Cool Bar HVAC system, Whelen emergency warning systems, and the Stryker Power Load System. With the IMMI controlled deceleration restraints, and the Safeguard Box Frame, Aurora will have the safest and strongest ambulances available. Innovations such as the AntiCor Protection System, with the ToughCoat Paint process, provide a revolutionary high-tech primer with adhesion and anti-corrosive properties never before achieved for a super tough, and long lasting finish. We are proud to partner with the City of Aurora Fire Department and thank them for their continued support.

I believe that was one of the things approved recently in the budget. An ambo for 12s and 13s however 13s may start life as Medic 9 until the new station is built.

Is an ambo being added to station 9 or 12?

I’m assuming this is from the recent purchase and delivery of Medic 4. We’re currently on a 1 ambo/year replacement, I think the next would be Medic 1 or one of the new ones for either 12s or 9s.
