a little more Pepperell Mass info

Pepperell Mass - FY 26 proposed budgets

PD - $2.4 M

Comm Center - $1.8 M

Highway construction and mtnce - $1.1 M

( per the 2024 town report - the dpw director who recently retired was
a call firefighter for 18 years in Pepperell )

Ambulance Service - $878,000 - (unsure what revenues they raise)

FD - $461,000

snow and ice - $257,000

==========================

PRECC budget info / patriot psap

FY 23 budget - $985,000

FY 24 budget - $1.0 M

FY 25 budget - $1.8 M

FY 26 budget - $1.8 M

apparently starting in FY 23 - pepperell was dispatching for ashby and
townsend also - and then they started dispatching for Groton and
Dunstable on July 1 2024

=========================

pretty sure that everyone that Patriot ECC dispatches for is on UHF
now - each fd/amb and each PD has their own UHF repeater channel - and
Townsend FD/ems even has a extra channel - and Dunstable might have a
FG channel of their own - all of the FDs are in Mass Fire District 6 /
northern Middlesex County iirc - Westford is their control point - and
iirc D6 has a couple of short range FG channels that are available for
large incidents - plus the UCall and UTac channels should be available
in 1 form or another - comms with Nashua NH might be tough since they
have a 800T P25 radio system - 154.325 and 151.25 might be used for
interops with Nashua NH on the fire/ems side - maybe not
