Joel: Be my guest and add the photos that you have. We call Kevin K, every couple weeks to try and shoot the new stuff up at General, if it is lettered. The Fitchburg twins are due at the end of this month and the rigs for Schaumburg are sometime in August- September. The are running behind, which is good.
Regarding Forest Lake, the city, with the anexation of Forest Lake Township now has a population of close to 20,000. The department covers 100 square miles, that include parts of other townships that are under contract.
When we were up there, the Chief told us that the department has trouble keeping up to date maps. If you have ever seen the entral station, you know that the rigs are stuffed in pretty tight. I was helping the Chief back the Bronto in and stopped him a safe distance away from the airboat, only to find out that I had to bring him in another couple feet to clear the front door. They are trying to get a new station in the next couple years, which will have drivethru bays.
