The Public Works Department is requesting permission to dispose of various pieces of outdated
fire equipment by donating them to the Glades County Volunteer Fire Department. The items
are outdated and are of very limited value. The return on investment of the time required to
place these items on GovDeals is questionable and the items will be of value to the Glades
County Volunteer Fire Department for training purposes. The items to be donated include:
• Various size hoses with ends missing
• MSA Firehawk SCBA (outdated)
• AED Defibtech Lifeline (obsolete)
• Bunker Gear (over 10yrs. old)
• SCBA Bottles
• Used Boots and other personal gear
