Shelby City Council passed a resolution Monday night at their regular meeting to dispose of a 1978 American LaFrance Century Pumper Truck  previously used by the fire department.
  

The truck has been replaced with a new pumper truck made possible through a $250,000 grant from the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
