apologies if this is redundant, but it would be nice to be able to establish station response boundaries. That way the first units brought up for dispatch would be the closest within that stations boundary, then cascade to closest by distance for available units.

Fireboy718,
Is it not already set to the closest unit to the scene..?
Sincerely,

Do you mean like a vehicle isn't allowed to go out of it's "jurisdiction" like a Small town FD. It's units cannot go out of the town?
-
Yes it is, but the closest unit by geography is not always the unit that covers the political jurisdiction of the location. The department I use to work for has areas that units from the neighboring County can actually get to more quickly, but they were our calls because they were in our political jurisdiction.

I mean two city's border each other, the call may physically be closer to city 2, but it is within the boundaries of city 1, so city 1 units handle the call, but then if outside aid is needed then you can request the closest available

Best way to do that is by ARR "Alarm and Response Regulations"
You can set an ARR to like:
"City One Firetruck"
"City Two Fire Truck"
The ARR requests the closest vehicle of that type.
If this still doesn't help im sorry. I tried to help the best I could. -
