Churchville FD Volunteer Fire Station

Churchville Volunteer Fire Department and Ambulance corps now has a new, modern facility from which to perform their vital service to the community. Just under 20,000 square feet, the new fire house is three times the size of the old facility and houses all the department’s equipment and apparatus adequately, with the proper amount of space for vehicles and as required for efficient operations and support.

Use of a pre-engineered metal structure was required to meet the project schedule and budget of $4.2 million. Stretching the boundaries of metal building design, the structure features gabled dormers and non-typical details. Originally conceived as intersecting perpendicular buildings, the design was changed to meet the revised project schedule and budget, while still meeting the department needs.

The apparatus section of the facility features eight vehicle bays, five in front and three in back, and includes three drive-thru bays. The attached support space of the firehouse is equipped with an exercise facility, a large meeting room, a commercial kitchen, offices, and training centers.
