The Immokalee Fire Control District is proud to announce the placement of a new piece of apparatus in service. This state-of-the-art Squad will enhance our ability to respond to emergency situations and better serve the community.

The new apparatus is equipped with the latest technology, including medical response gear, firefighter protective gear and SCBA (Self Contained Breathing Apparatus) and a Hurst Combi tool used in vehicle extrications. This will allow our firefighters to more effectively combat fires and rescue those in need.

Squad 30 is a 2022 Ford F250 and will be staffed with two people. This apparatus responds primarily to EMS related calls, motor vehicle accidents, and fire calls. This vehicle was obtained thru a grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) and Collier County Community and Human Services Division. We are grateful for this support, which has allowed us to purchase this vital piece of equipment.

The Immokalee Fire Control District is committed to providing the highest level of service to our community. The addition of this new apparatus is just one of the ways we are working to improve our ability to respond to emergencies and keep our community safe.
