The Dadeville Fire Department submitted a needs assessment to city leaders on Tuesday, June 28, outlining urgent equipment requirements for the department, including a proposal for an additional fire truck. 

Fire Chief Scott Atkins explained during a regularly scheduled city council meeting that the department is currently struggling to combat fires due to the city’s water system as the infrastructure’s design creates difficulties in supplying sufficient water levels for firefighting.
