Spaces shall include administrational areas, dormitory, kitchen, emergency operations room, command room, training room, public waiting room, exercise room, and renovated apparatus bay. The exterior features include retaining walls, fenced rear yard enclosure, power gate access, generator enclosure area, new 60’ communication tower, and additional public parking. The entire existing facility will be cleared out during construction, but will have one company on site in a portable trailer on the front of the facility with single apparatus vehicle on standby. The facility will feature a duel fuel backup generator which will provide emergency power for the entire facility. A new architectural shingle roof and new sectional custom overhead doors for the apparatus bay will be part of the scope of work.
