PHOTO OF THE DAY: 4/29/2016. #Local935 member Kevin Palmer deploys a hose line on a vehicle fire in the Cajon Pass near the City of Hesperia. Tasked with responding to not only the length of the Cajon Pass but also to a broad swath of Hesperia and the High Desert, Station 305 ( Previously housing ME40) proudly serves the communities of Oak Hills and Baldy Mesa from its location atop the Cajon Summit. Opened in November 2009, the station covers 18,000 square feet and is capable of housing a crew of 15. The large, modern station came from humble beginnings. In the mid 1980s the Oak Hills and Baldy Mesa communities helped build 305’s predecessor—old Station 40—a structure that served as both a firehouse and community center. When the citizenry needed to use the facility, the fire units would be pulled out and parked outside the bays. In fact it wasn’t until around 1985 that crew quarters and a second apparatus bay were added. Station 40 was a California Department of Forestry entity, staffed by paid-call county firefighters (PCFs), until 1998 when SBCoFD took over fire protection services for County Service Area 38. The station remained staffed by PCFs and limited term firefighters for years, including in 2006, when paramedics began to serve the station.

LIGHT AIRCRAFT CRASHES IN SAN BERNARDINO

Just after 8:00pm, San Bernardino County Fire’s crash station at San Bernardino International Airport was notified by the control tower of an incoming aircraft with a declared emergency. A pilot had announced an engine failure with intentions to land on Runway 6.

While units were responding, the control tower stated it had lost both radio and visual contact with the aircraft approximately one mile southwest of the field.

With no additional 911 calls to assist in locating the site, fire units began a hasty search of the industrial properties in the area. San Bernardino Sheriff’s helicopter, 40-KING, was requested and ultimately located the incident in the Santa Ana riverbed near East Cooley Drive and Cooley Court.

Firefighters hiked to the scene and located an adult male trapped in a Cessna 152 which had sustained heavy damage during the crash. The victim was removed from the wreckage and carried out to additional personnel.

There was no post-incident fire. A fuel leak was mitigated before it had the chance to travel into the river. Conflicting reports led to a search of the area for an additional victim before confirmation was obtained that the pilot was in fact the sole occupant.

The victim was transported to an area trauma center for treatment of potentially life threatening injuries. No additional injuries were reported to firefighters or civilians.

SBCoFD responded with five engines, one truck company, an ARFF crash rig, one water tender, a HazMat team, and two chief officers totaling 31 personnel.
The scene has been turned over to San Bernardino City Police Department with notifications to the FAA and NTSB.

Date/Time: November 13, 2020 8:02pm
Location: Santa Ana River near Cooley Ct, San Bernardino
Incident: Off-Airport Aircraft Crash Incident#: 20-259829

ELECTION DAY! Please remember to VOTE NO on Measure U. We proudly serve our communities each and everyday.

We need your vote to fight against measure U which will DEFUND the County Fire District by over $40 million dollars annually. This will close stations, cut firefighters, and eliminate specialty programs like Dozers, hand crews, HazMat, and USAR response.

@sanbernardinocountyfire @local935 Got a nice hike in with the guys from 78 at the #cypressfire yesterday afternoon.

Who benefits from this Measure? The real beneficiaries are wealthy out-of-state land owners who will avoid paying their fair share of local taxes for fire protection.
Measure U jeopardizes the safety of our communities by closing fire stations, reducing front-line fire protection, and delaying emergency medical response.

As First Responders, we are dedicated to protecting your safety. Please join us in VOTING NO on Measure U.

Vote No on Measure U!

If measure U succeeds and defunds the County Fire District there will be no additional resources or personnel to send when the large scale incidents happen.

🔥NO hand crews

🔥NO firefighting bull dozers

🔥NO extra staffing for strike teams

🔥NO proactive fuel removal & fire prevention

Vote No on Measure U!

HERE ARE THE FACTS ABOUT MEASURE U:

🔥DEFUNDS life-saving fire protection and emergency medical services.
🔥REDUCES paramedic services for residents in the Fire Protection District.
🔥REMOVES funding for brush removal and other essential fire prevention services.
🔥ELIMINATES at least 224 County Firefighters and Paramedics — 1/3 of ALL our First Responders!
🔥CLOSES 19 local fire stations and DELAYS emergency medical response by 9 minutes.

#SupportFirefighters #NOonMeasureU #Local935

If Eric Steinman and the supporters of Measure U get their way 19 stations & over 224 firefighters, ⅓ of our 1st responders, will be eliminated. With the recent significant fires where we saw tremendous fire growth, loss of life, and homes burned, the County Fire District will be significantly limited in its ability to handle day to day calls for service let alone the massive fires like we had recently.

There will be no additional resources or personnel to send when the large scale incidents happen. #SupportFirefighters #NOonMeasureU #Local935

VOTE NO on Measure U!

Measure U is a false promise that WILL COST YOU MONEY by raising your Homeowner Insurance Premiums over $500 dollars a year. These INSURANCE RATE INCREASES will more than wipe out any savings received from eliminating the county fire service tax.

Even worse, homeowners in mountain and desert communities -- where Fire Stations will be forced to close -- will have difficulty obtaining any fire insurance coverage at all.
