Contract Award
$660,000Jul 20, 2026The Fire Department plans to purchase a Pierce Enforcer fire truck for $660,000, updating its frontline apparatus.

Apparatus component suppliers and maintenance providers can pursue follow-on work such as equipment, radios, training, and lifecycle service tied to this new unit.
Contract Award
$660,000Jul 20, 2026The Board approved proceeding with additional exterior renovation work at the Pinecrest Renovation Project for $200,738.

The Board agenda lists a proposal of $200,738 from Peters Construction, recommended by Invision and the Facilities Director, for this added scope. The main award decision is effectively made, but this signals ongoing facility upgrades where contractors, designers, and building-systems vendors can target future phases, maintenance, and complementary improvements.
Contract Award
$200,738Jul 7, 2026Waterloo Fire Rescue presented a July 6, 2026 work session proposal to adopt the First Due public safety software ecosystem and expand its ITM compliance program.

Council approval is still pending, so this is an active planning stage where other RMS/ePCR vendors, integrators, and implementation partners can still influence scope, migration strategy, and funding structure.
