New fire station being built in Everest/Credit: Everest/Washington Township Fire Dept.
(KNZA)--Construction is underway on a new fire station in the Brown County Community of Everest.
Steel framing for the new station is being erected, and tin is being installed.
Construction began in August, with the concrete flooring being poured.
Volunteer firefighters with the Everest/Washington Township Fire Department will be focusing on completing the interior of the fire station this fall, with a goal of being in the building this winter.
The Department says the new fire station is needed to adequately and safely house all the department's apparatus, which is not possible in the current outdated buildings.
The new facility is being funded through donations. Fundraising efforts began in May 2021.
