What happened?
City Council approved building fire stations No. 7 and No. 8 east of Bay Area Boulevard on Muldoon Parkway and south of the future Grand Parkway on West Boulevard, respectively.
City Council did not discuss a project timeline or projected costs at the May 28 meeting.
Community Impact previously reported each fire station could cost between $10 million-$12 million to build.
Why it matters
The two new fire stations will expand the fire department’s reach into the city’s undeveloped areas, constituting 40% of the city.
