July 29, 2021 Update:
OPN Architects and Design Engineers have been working with City Fire Department and Engineering staff to collect basic information about the building, how it is used, and how it could be improved. During the Schematic Design phase, the Fire Department conducted a survey of Fire Department staff to understand the needs of the firefighters which would then inform the goals of the Fire Station 6 project. The survey responses indicated the top goals should be:
-
Promoting the health and wellness of the fire fighters
-
Creating a functional and efficient space for fire fighters and the community
-
Reducing building energy costs and long term maintenance
The schematic design was presented to each of the three Fire Station 6 crews to get their specific feedback about the function and layout. The resulting design is the combination of the firefighter’s goals and the feedback and the design team’s approach to meet City sustainability goals. The design team is moving into the Design Development phase and will continue to refine the design and align with the allocated budget.
