The Thalsdorf Volunteer Fire Department is flying high! A new fire engine was finally able to be purchased thanks to a bridging loan secured through successful discussions with the state, after the local administration had initially rejected the project. Deputy Mayor Thomas Leitner did everything he could to overcome this important challenge, which greatly pleased fire department commander Michael Regenfelder. “We are very much looking forward to the new vehicle and are deeply indebted to our deputy mayor for his commitment,” he expressed his gratitude. This success underlines the importance of the fire department to the community and its safety klick-kaernten.at reported.
