This is the second Engine the department has purchased from KME through funding from Measure N. Engine 2 was purchased 2 years ago and has been serving the City and surrounding communities from Station 2 on Sierra College Drive.

Engines 1 and 2 are nearly identical in appearance and capability; these fire Engines provide enhanced reliability and safety for the fire department and crews and provide us the platform to enhance the performance of our mission and service to the community. We thank the citizens of Grass Valley for their continued support.
