In this episode of Ames in Focus, host Bill Gebhart sits down with Ames Fire Chief Rich Higgins to talk about the future of Fire Station 2. The discussion covers why relocation is needed, the benefits of the proposed State Avenue site, and the partnership with Iowa State University that helps make the project possible.
Chief Higgins explains how the relocation will improve emergency response times, expand service coverage, and create a modern facility that meets the needs of a growing community. The conversation also highlights what will happen with the current Campustown station and outlines the steps residents can expect as the project moves forward.
This project will appear as a bond referendum on the November 4 ballot. Residents are encouraged to learn more so they have the information they need when they go to the polls.
