Construction to Start on New Monroe (OH) Fire Station

The facility, which will be known as Fire Station No. 1, will be a 15,561 square-foot building designed as a hub for first responders with space for firefighter and emergency medical service training as well as programs and classes for the public. Fire Chief Rob Wight said the project will cost about $5.2 million, which will be covered by a levy passed last year.  

Ground-breaking for the facility is scheduled to take place at 6 p.m. Wednesday at the site of the former Lincoln Elementary School, 911 E. Third St., Monroe.
