This from Larry Shapiro:

I stopped by Arlington Heights and grabbed some photos of the new Tower 1. It is not yet in service. This is a 2014 Pierce Dash CF PUC 1500/300 with job #27342. It is reportedly the first Dash CF PUC tower ladder … with Niles running a close second.

A reader tells us that Arlington Heights is ordering three Type I ambulances, and they are supposed to be replacing the white roofs with black. Additionally, the new tower ladder which is on order is reportedly going to sport a black roof as well.

The Arlington Heights village board was presented with a request for a new tower ladder for the fire department.

The following was updated for us:

· The Village Board gave approval to proceed with the purchase of the new ladder tower truck at the July 1^st Board Meeting. We intend to move forward with the recommendation of the Ladder Truck Advisory Committee and specify a Pierce 100’ Ladder Tower based on the Dash CF cab and chassis.
