Enhancing Fire Department Infrastructure: 2016-2017 Projects Overview

The Fire Department's 2016-2017 projects aim to eliminate safety hazards, improve response times, and upgrade aging infrastructure. Initiatives include replacing Fire Stations 20, 7, and 17 to better serve the community's needs and enhance firefighting capabilities. The existing facilities are aged and limit effective deployment, requiring modernization to align with current demands and safety standards. Addressing service gaps and ensuring efficient operations are key priorities for a more resilient fire department.
