Local MP @Julianaaddison was warned two years ago that Ballarat’s fire trucks were ageing and overdue for replacement. Yet Ballarat firefighters are still relying on trucks that should have been replaced seven years ago.
Today at Ballarat Heritage Weekend, firefighters are speaking with the community about the growing gap between the Emergency Services Tax Victorians pay and the fire service they receive.
Residents can inspect one of Ballarat’s ageing frontline trucks firsthand and see why firefighters are calling for urgent action.
Ballarat families deserve safe, reliable fire services and firefighters deserve equipment they can trust. @jacintaallanmp @jaclynsymesmp @vicki_ward_mp
