City Council (Study) — August 10, 2026
The city has a shot at a $1.25 million fire engine via a grant and a rare build slot — getting it next fall instead of four years from now. It would replace Engine 94 and space out the fleet's ages.
City Council (Regular) — February 2, 2026
Sheridan's two fire engines are both 17+ years old and rated fair. The city is applying for a $710,000 state grant to help buy a replacement, but must match it dollar-for-dollar — with $250,000 already budgeted and about four years of lead time before the engine arrives.
City Council (Study) — January 26, 2026
Sheridan's two fire engines are both 2009 models, and one has been sidelined waiting for back-ordered parts. The city wants to apply for a $710,000 state grant to replace Engine One, but the grant requires a full 100% match — roughly $1.3 million total for the new engine.
