Pennsylvania Fire/EMS Apparatus

[Ladder 68]

Couple of questions I've wondered about:



Is Monroeville organized and lead by 1 Fire Chief and Command Staff or does each company have their own Fire Chief and Command Staff?



I notice a huge variance in apparatus manufacturers, is each company their own taxing entity or do they receive funds from the town/city/township?



Do they each have their own automatic-aid or mutual-aid agreements with surrounding departments or operate under 1 for all of Monroeville?



Sorry for the questions, just curious.



Thanks in advance.
