Work associated with the building included relocating the fire department’s water storage tank, excavation into the adjacent hillside and trenching from the main building for electrical servicing.

Officials said the finished building will be put to use storing a fire engine and bush truck.

“Currently, these vehicles are stored at the Blackpool Firehall during winter months and at private property during non-winter months,” said the TNRD.

“Having a permanent storage space on the Little Fort Firehall property will support more efficient response times when these vehicles are deployed. The new building will be approximately 1,400 square feet in size.”

The TNRD said $175,000 of the estimated $240,000 project budget is grant funded, with the remaining $65,000 coming from the Regional District’s reserve funds.
