New Fire & EMS Facility
The Town of Newton Fire Department is working to address critical fire safety infrastructure needs. The existing town hall / fire station was built in 1963, with the last addition in 1991. The fire station served us well in the past but now presents challenges that impact our efficiency and ability to serve the community effectively.
- Inadequate decontamination spaces critical for firefighter health.
- Lack of proper training facilities.
- Lack of safety features like appropriate ventilation and showers.
- Cramped space and insufficient room for high value equipment.
These limitations affect our operational effectiveness and make recruitment and retention of volunteer firefighters more difficult.
