We are grateful to receive a $36,795.00 grant from the Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation to support our emergency response efforts.

This funding will be used to purchase 14 lifting bags, two struts, two strut converters, and related accessories, helping ensure our department is better equipped to serve the Republic community.

Thank you to the Firehouse Subs Public Safety Foundation, our local Firehouse Subs restaurant in Springfield, and the generous donors who made this possible!

Responding units deployed water streams and heavy machinery to extinguish the fire. Authorities reported no injuries or offsite civilian evacuations, while equipment damage totaled $750,000.
