Stafford Township Volunteer Fire Co. Station 47 has a new truck on the way. On July 14, the township council approved the nearly $1.1-million acquisition.

“I just want to thank you for the effort you did with the ladder truck,” said Fire Chief Bill O’Neill during the public comment portion of the monthly council meeting. “Our guys put a lot of time into that, not to find a truck only good for today, but for the life of the truck. It’s a 20-year truck.
