On January 26th, 2020 neighbors, friends, and family joined the firefighters of the North Metro Fire Rescue District for the dedication, wetting down, and push-in ceremony for their new aerial ladder truck at Station 62, 10550 Huron St. in Northglenn. Truck 62 is a 2019 Pierce 107’ Ascendant heavy-duty ladder on a Velocity chassis with a 525 horsepower Detroit Diesel engine. The truck is equipped with a 1500 gallon per minute water pump, 500-gallon water tank, 20-gallon foam tank, and a Husky 3 foam injection system. In his comments to attendees, David Anderson, North Metro Deputy Chief of Support Services, thanked the citizens of the fire district, the board of directors, and the truck committee for making the acquisition of the truck a success. The Honorable Meredith Leighty, Mayor of Northglenn and most of the North Metro Fire District Board of Directors were also in attendance. Visitors were treated to hot cocoa and s’mores that were prepared by firefighters. The former Truck 62 was retired and assigned as a reserve truck after 12 years of service and over 25,000 emergency calls. The new Pierce fire truck is the first of its kind to serve Colorado, featuring rear steering that allows the truck to make tighter turns necessary in newer developments.
