-State of Vermont
-House of Representatives
-Montpelier, Vermont
-Concurrent House Resolution
-H.C.R. 164
-Offered by Representatives Dickinson of St. Albans Town and Toof of St. Albans Town
-Offered by Senators Brock and Norris
-House concurrent resolution congratulating the St. Albans Town Fire Department on 50 years
-of remarkable community service
-Whereas, in 1975, St. Albans Town decided that the community’s fire protection needs
-necessitated the creation of a separate volunteer fire department, and, as a parting gesture, St.
-Albans City gave the new organization $60,000.00 to meet initial expenses, and
-Whereas, the St. Albans Town Fire Department recognized the need to disburse large
-quantities of water in an expedited manner and, under the insightful leadership of its first fire
-chief, Roy C. Parah Sr. (for whom the firehouse is named), purchased a Maxim water pumper,
-capable of releasing 1,500 gallons of water per minute, and it also “repurposed a Chevy truck to
-[deliver water] to hard-to-reach houses and converted two [additional] trucks…into tankers,” and
-Whereas, initially, firefighting vehicles were painted “OSHA yellow” on the theory that red
-fire trucks were insufficiently visible, and
-Whereas, although the St. Albans City Fire Department considered refraining from assisting
-colleagues in St. Albans Town, this rivalry ended as the city’s firefighters soon appreciated their
-neighbors’ support, and
-Whereas, the cooperative relationship between the two departments has markedly improved
-as Matt Mulheron now proudly serves as fire chief for both municipalities, and
-Whereas, the once ragtag, and now much-respected, St. Albans Town Fire Department
-proudly boasts a highly trained roster of firefighters and modern equipment, and
-Whereas, in August 2025, current and former St. Albans firefighters gathered to celebrate this
-historic milestone in the department’s history, now therefore be it
-Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives:
-That the General Assembly congratulates the St. Albans Town Fire Department on 50 years
-of remarkable community service, and be it further
-Resolved: That the Secretary of State be directed to send a copy of this resolution to the St.
-Albans Town Fire Department.
