Fire Station No. 16 replaces a 1960’s era back-in fire station with a new, two-story, drive-thru station. In order to accomplish this on the existing site, the floor plans are extremely functional and efficient. The lower floor includes two apparatus bays, apparatus support and an exercise room. The upper floor contains the living quarters and offices. An initial community outreach meeting was held in the existing station apparatus bay. With the onset of COVID-19, all subsequent client design meetings (including Planning Commission) have been conducted virtually. The project has received Planning Commission approval and is in the construction documents phase.
