The city will trade in its current truck for $15,000. The truck, a 1987 Pierce Lance, has a capacity of 1,000 gallons of water and can carry 10 firefighters. The truck it replaces only carries two firefighters. The council went ahead with the purchase after examining the possibility of buying a ladder upgrade instead.

Point of View
What do you think about a proposed ban on smoking in public places such as restaurants, bars and workplaces?
As much as I hate government interfering with our lives, I love the smoking ban. Going out in Lawrence is so nice without smelling cigarette smoke at your table while eating.
