Legacy forged at Dallas, TX — Every detail tells a story of service
City of Dallas established Station #9 when they moved into the former Kelberg City Hall in April of 1978. While in that building, their kitchen was a restaurant down the street, monitoring portable radios during meal times, and one bedroom wall that consisted of a tarp. Funds for a new station was approved in the bond election of 1985 and Station #9 was opened at its current location on September 27, 1989.
Staffing
Station 9 is housed to a single engine company. A booster unit used to be here until 2008 when it was moved to Station 51 after the city put in Swiftwater 34 (now Swiftwater 59) and took away Boat 51 to replace with Booster 51. Station 9 is one of the few Paramedic engines in the city of Dallas with no rescue (ambulance) unit assigned. The Fire Department made Engine 9 a paramedic engine, carrying a Lifepack 15 and the same drugs as a rescue unit, to provide the best care to citizens in this area due to extended response times. Required to have 2 certified paramedics on the engine at all times.
Call Volume
Engine 9 averages around 7 calls per day, servicing an 11.82 square mile area covering Kleberg (annexed in 1978). The biggest challenges are response times - being on the edge of the city butting up to Seagoville and Dallas County means waiting for ambulances can take a while, requiring crews to maintain current knowledge of guidelines and paramedic skills. They carry a combination tool for car wrecks and extrications. Serving a wide variety of mobile home parks, permanent water supply can be a challenge, sometimes requiring water shuttle operations or laying over 1000ft of supply line with potential relay pumping. Crews have become very efficient in water conservation when fighting fires.
