Catoosa County commissioners recently approved a change order that will save the county a little more than $36,000 on its planned purchase of five pumper tanker trucks for the fire department. On Aug. 15, the county officials approved purchase of more than $2.5 million worth of trucks and equipment for its fire department: the five pumper tankers, and six smaller, more frequently used trucks.

The old Department of Driver Services building at 278 McElroy Road in Fayetteville will soon be demolished to make way for a new fire station. The building has been vacant since November 2016 and was not deemed suitable for renovation because of moisture problems and the significant remodeling required to bring it up to current code.
