The grand opening is set to take place at 3880 Greenwood Road, just a short stroll from where the old station has served our community faithfully since 1961. Can you believe it’s been over half a century?
Here’s the scoop: Fire Station No. 14 has been one of the busiest firehouses in town, responding to a staggering over 6,000 calls last year alone! That’s a lot of action! With firefighters always ready to spring into action, their work is crucial to keeping our community safe and feeling secure. This new station means even better facilities for our brave firefighters, ensuring they are well-equipped to handle any emergency that comes their way.
So, what prompted this move? City officials decided it was time for a fresh start, and funds from the city’s 2021 bond made this dream a reality! Let’s be honest, having a modern facility for our fire department is a significant upgrade. Fire Station No. 14 is not just about bricks and mortar; it’s about what those walls represent—the hard work and dedication of our local heroes.
Join your fellow residents for this special moment in our city’s history!

The new Fire Station No. 14 isn’t just a facility; it symbolizes our community’s unwavering support for those who serve us.
