The North Judson-Wayne Township Fire Department continues to update its equipment. North Judson Clerk-Treasurer Alicia Collins says the department is encumbering money to 2017 to buy additional turnout gear.
She says 10 sets have recently been purchased. Now, the department will buy about another 10, to complete the replacement process.
Also during Monday’s North Judson Town Council meeting, the town’s building inspector reported that 66 permits had been written in 2016, the most ever in a single year.
