Should be allowed to. These trucks need to be out on the road more to keep everything working well not sitting in bays just waiting.

They should be allowed. Maintaining availability and good public relations is part of the fire fighters duties

I back the FD and agree that it is great PR. It also makes it easier for people to see you in public and know who the people are that protect their town. Think of it this way if they were to leave in their personal vehicle it will take them that much longer to get back to the station to respond to YOUR emergency.

Do you not want revenue generated in your town. If you have firefighters bring food in they will spen their money elsewhere. I do not see the big deal a rig on the street being seen by the public is better that it sitting in quarters. Why is this an issue it take an hour at the most.

With all the hardwork firefighters do, stopping to get a meal after a call via the fire engine shouldnt be a problem

Yes I do it good PR and they carry radios with them so if they get a call they can just respond from where there at

What is the reason behind this? Does public works drive the city vehicles to lunch or stop by a convenience store for a snack? Is the Police Department allowed to do the same? A Fire apparatus is designed to be used, sitting in the truck bay will not extend its life. Actually normal driving is good for the apparatus, this can also be used for training for when the tones drop and it's time to respond in emergency mode. Theses issues usually arise from someone who has not really thought the whole situation out but think they have a great idea.

This is horrible that a firefighter can't stop and get food or go grocery shopping so they can eat after he/she has been out saving someone or someone's property. I would like to see you all not go grocery shopping or go get lunch that would nevr happen. I hope that if you all pass this that law suits flood your offices!!!!!!!!!
We do it here all the time.
