Larry, They closed Ladder Co-70, Safety & Engine-308, which was a last minute decision, I guess. Talk was closing another company, but of course politics played into it. The same Councilman who is a big enemy, and always against us, decided he didn't want Firehouse in HIS district closed, and went whining to Mayor....go figure !!

And wasn't that same councilman's grandfather a retired FDNY Captain or Chief?????
I'm sure he's rolling over in his grave right now!!!!!! <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/machinegun.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
