Rejected petition Revoke the decision to remove the second fire engine from Oakham Fire Station.

Removing the second fire engine and retained crew from Oakham Fire Station will mean slower response times to emergencies, which will have a significant impact, putting life and property at greater risk in Rutland and surrounding areas. The removal of the fire engine is to take place on 31/03/16.
