Nassau County Legislator Carrié Solages (D – Valley Stream) joined the South Floral Park Fire Department and the community on Saturday, Aug. 24 for a wet-down ceremony celebrating the Department’s brand-new Engine 181.
“With all the new development coming to Belmont, it is more important than ever to support our local fire departments. We can do this by providing them with the resources they need to stay safe and attract and retain the volunteers who rush toward danger on a daily basis,” Solages said. “Having previously secured funding for this fire department to purchase essential safety equipment for its volunteers, I know this fire truck will be put to excellent use, and I congratulate Mayor Nyakya T. Brown, South floral Park Fire Chief Kevin Bellamy, and the entire community for making such a wise investment in the future of their Village.”
