The under-construction Mt. Juliet Fire Department North District Fire Station was recently vandalized.

The station, across the street from Green Hill High School, had the trench drains of its future apparatus bay damaged as they were set in preparation of this week’s slab pouring.

Officials say someone forced the drains off their mounting brackets, and, in doing so, they’ve damaged the attachment points of the drains.

The Mt. Juliet Police Department is investigating.

“Moving forward, this construction site will be closely monitored around the clock by city officials, and we ask if you see any suspicious activity near this area to please call the police department immediately.”

After years of pursuit, the Bradner Fire Department announced that it has received a $1.26 million grant to build a new station, reports 13abc.com.

The current facility, built in 1955, was designed for four trucks, but the department’s current fleet has more than double that amount.

Reedy Creek's Professional Firefighters Association president Jon Shirey said he hasn’t heard much from the district’s administration about what the future holds for Reedy Creek employees. “What’s going to happen with their jobs as a whole? What’s going to happen to benefits like retiree health care?” Shirey asked.
