VILLAGE-WIDE FACILITIES STUDY - MODIFICATIONS AT PUBLIC WORKS

INTRODUCTION
While there were three major reasons for studying the Public Works facility, the primary reason was the possible relocation of Fire Department vehicle maintenance from Fire Station 14 to Public Works. At present, the Fire Department vehicles are serviced at Fire Station 14. The vehicles from all of the other Village departments, however, are maintained at Public Works. As the Village began looking to replace Fire Station 14, they questioned whether it made sense to continue separate vehicle maintenance operations.

The Facilities Study indicates that consolidating vehicle maintenance operations at Public Works makes the most sense. In order to accommodate the larger Fire Department apparatus, however, two new maintenance bays have to be added to the Public Works facility.

WHAT OTHER MODIFICATIONS ARE BEING MADE AT PUBLIC WORKS?
In addition to the relocation of Fire Department vehicle maintenance, the Facilities study also looked at consolidation of storage and the possible addition of the Emergency Operations Center (EOC) to Public Works.

See the Facilities Study for a more in-depth look at these proposed modifications.
