Having outgrown the previous fire station No. 3, which was built in the 1960s, the Jefferson City Fire Department required a new station that would be better located and equipped to serve the community’s needs. The department required a facility that could be used for training and public education as well as a staging area for firefighters.
The new 12,826 sq. ft. fire station on Rock Hill Road in Jefferson City is a 1 story, 3-1/2-bay Craftsman-style building with two small mezzanines in the apparatus bay for storage. The $2.33 million station has offices, living quarters, workout and training rooms, and a small hardened backup 911 call center.
According to Fire Chief Matt Schofield, GIS mapping showed that as the city has grown, a gap in coverage developed between fire stations No. 1 and 5. He said, “The new station will allow a quicker response to that area of the city. Its location on Missouri I79 will help the Fire Department get the best possible ISO insurance rating.”
