The construction of the new fire station is almost done and fire officials are on track to move operations into their new building next month, Assistant Fire Chief Devon Pageau told Foster's.
In March, the town voted to approve the building of a new fire station, replacing the central fire station in town as the central station no longer meets the building code.
The new fire station will be located at 865 White Mountain Highway in a one-story building that is about 9,000 square feet which is about 4,000 square feet larger than the current station.
Pageau said the larger station will give the Fire Department more space to store its ladder truck that doesn't fit in the current central station.
The project was recently approved for two federal grants from Homeland Security and Emergency Management along with about $56,000 to fund the emergency backup generator and almost $100,000 for emergency operation capabilities.
