The City of Mount Dora is considering a proposal for a new fire training system. This system, known as the Max Fire Box Phase II, is designed to simulate fire behavior and thermal imaging for firefighter training. It includes a first-floor burn chamber with a breezeway and garage, a second-floor burn chamber, and an interchangeable roof. The project is currently under review by the City Council. If approved, the project would involve the delivery and setup of this specialized training equipment, along with a train-the-trainer session. This opportunity could benefit suppliers of specialized training equipment and related services. Early engagement with the city could provide insight into their needs before final decisions are made.
