OXFORD – More than year after severe flooding hit Chenango County, repairs to damages are still continuing to come together.

Meeting Thursday at the Oxford Fire Department, New York State Senator Thomas Libous (R-Binghamton) was on hand to view the equipment he helped buy. A demonstration was given by firefighters as to how each piece of equipment is used.

With the support of Libous, the Oxford Fire Department was granted $25,000 to purchase all new gear. “We helped all fire companies who were internally hurt by the flood waters,” said Libous.
