Council approves $129K curb and gutter project on South Washington

LINDSBORG, Kan. — The council unanimously authorized the $11,985.21 purchase of a new self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) fill station for the Lindsborg Fire Department. Police Chief and Public Safety Director Terry Reed reported the current fill station, dating to 1987, is failing, underfilling 4,500-PSI air bottles to just 3,200 PSI and significantly reducing firefighters' air supply during emergencies. Because of the failing equipment, firefighters have been forced to travel to McPherson to fill their air tanks, cutting into critical response times.
