Hutto Fire Rescue, also known as Williamson County Emergency Services District 3, had collected $1.9 million in sales taxes, according to the district’s audits.
Now with its coffers reinforced by two years of sales tax revenues, Hutto Fire Rescue is set to break ground on its second fire station. According to Kerwood, this station is specifically designed to serve the needs of the southern half of the city of Hutto and portions of southeastern Williamson County.
Hutto Fire Rescue will situate its second station on Swindoll Lane off FM 1660 in the southern end of Hutto city limits. The district purchased approximately 3.4 acres of land and expects to break ground on the station before the end of August. Kerwood said stations typically take 18 months to construct.
