Disaster Drill is a Success! Scarsdale Volunteer Ambulance Corps (SVAC) wrapped up its Scarsdale High School Senior Options EMT training class this week with its annual inter-service agency disaster drill; the perfect way to end the session. This year’s drill included the Scarsdale Fire and Police Departments, Eastchester EMS, and of course SVAC, working to help “victims” of a potentially deadly chlorine leak at the Scarsdale Pool complex. The Senior Options students worked in triage to help the rescued pool-goers, played by their very own parents. Click here to read more about and see photos of this impressive (and hopefully never needed) preparation for a scary situation. |

All Charged Up: SPD Introduces First All-Electric Car to Fleet The Scarsdale Police Department welcomed a new vehicle to its fleet, a Ford Mustang Mach-e, which is the first all-electric vehicle for the department. The car has been designated SPD-1, replacing a 2010 Chevy Impala, which aged out, and joins several hybrid Ford Explorers in the modern fleet. SPD-1 will be used to patrol Scarsdale’s Village Center and driven by Officer Russel Schum. Police Chief Andrew Matturro will work with Department of Public Works Superintendent Jeff Coleman, Village Staff, and the Village Board to evaluate the new vehicle’s effectiveness and consider the potential to add more electric vehicles to the patrol fleet and the Parking Enforcement Unit. |
