The Fowlerville Area Fire Department recently broke ground on its new Station 41, which replaces a cramped and outdated 42-year-old facility.

The new facility will sit on a nearly 5-acre parcel and be a total of 17,961 square feet, including five drive-through bays, offices, crew quarters and kitchen with a dayroom, and a training room for 48 people, officials say.

“We Broke Ground Today For The “NEW” Fowlerville Area Fire Department “41” – Central Station!! You’ll Be Seeing Work Going On And A Station Coming Together At The Corner Of Grand River Ave. & N. Gregory Rd. SOON!” a Facebook post reads.

If there are no setbacks, officials anticipate a ribbon cutting next spring.

Fargo city officials recently approved the sale of $8.1 million bonds to finance Fire Station 8 and equip it with apparatus and relevant tools, reports gowatertown.net.

The city worked to acquire a private placement bond sale, which returned a lower interest rate on the sale of $8.1 million bonds to pay for the project, the report says.

The city last week received architectural bids for the station—which will be located on city-owned property on a to-be-determined location on 64th Avenue South—and now has the funds to get it built.

Watch the meeting at which the approval came:
