1.5 million euros for the fire department: Birkenfeld's major investment offensive!

The Birkenfeld community is pitching in! In 2025, a whopping 1.5 million euros will flow into the fire department to raise operational readiness to a new level. A large part of this sum will be used for brand new vehicles, which will make a crucial contribution to strengthening the units on the B41. Fire chief Lars Benzel presented these exciting plans at the last meeting of the fire brigade committee and received great approval.

Investments for the future

The investments are not only necessary, but also overdue! Around 30,000 euros are planned for the modernization of a test stand in the breathing apparatus workshop in the new fire department equipment house. This measure is an important step in ensuring the safety of emergency services and keeping technical standards up to date. The fire department in Birkenfeld shows once again how seriously they take their responsibility!

The members of the fire brigade committee were informed about the detailed items in the draft budget, and the anticipation of the new vehicles is palpable. These investments are not just numbers on a paper, but a clear message: the safety of citizens is the top priority! With the new vehicles, the fire department will be better prepared for emergencies and can react more quickly. A strong signal for the region!
