Some closure on closures

At Mayor Dan Sullivan’s press conference last Friday unveiling his budget for 2010, he also announced that the rolling closures of Anchorage Fire Department apparatus would end on the first of the year. It was good news for concerned citizens who’ve become fans of the anonymously run AFDStatus.wordpress.com blog and the daily Facebook and Twitter announcements of which apparatus are shut down (the department officially declines to release that information on its own).
