RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROJECTS AND/ OR MASTER PLAN:
The public safety needs assessment conducted in FY2022 identified Fire Station # 2 as a candidate for relocation and
replacement in order to accommodate fire service operations and to meet the growing needs of the community.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
Project scope includes the design and construction of a new Fire Station # 2 to be located at 2214 West Euless Boulevard. The
proposed project calls for a station of approximately 18, 000- 19, 000 sq. ft. to include four ( 4) double deep bays to
accommodate various sizes of apparatus along with additional bay space for housing of reserve units and other equipment.
Living quarters and office space for staff are also included in the project. A three- story fire training tower with an internal
stairway and exterior window ports for various forms of ladder training, repelling exercises, and window rescues is also a
possibility for this site.

PROJECT SCHEDULE:
Began Design: October 2022
Design Complete: April 2023
Began Construction: August 2023
Construction Substantially Completed: February 2025
JUSTIFICATION:
The current station located at 1515 Westpark Way can no longer meet the needs of a full -service fire station. This station was
constructed in 1998 from the former Fleet Service Center ( built 1978). The facility was remodeled to accommodate the fire
staff and apparatus bays were constructed on the west side of the building for equipment and vehicles. Minor cosmetic
upgrades were performed in 2015 with paint and appliance updates being the primary focus. The needs assessment
performed in FY2022 has determined that the current station would not be a candidate for a remodel and the site would not
accommodate the size of structure needed to support fire operations.
