Equipment delivery delays

Summary

Two pieces of 2025 equipment are still waiting on delivery — an aerial truck and a street patrol truck. Only a couple of manufacturers build plow truck bodies anymore, creating backlogs, though chassis delays have improved. The patrol truck should arrive before snow season.
