The Athens-Clarke County government is seeking public input on replacing Fire Station #5.
An online survey is open through Sunday, March 5th for Clarke County residents to residents to weigh in on site selection criteria for a new location for Fire Station #5. The information will provide guidelines for evaluating potential sites. Measures can include acreage, location in comparison to other fire stations, connection to utilities, and more. A drop-in public meeting is scheduled for Thursday, March 2nd at Fire Station #7, located at 2350 South Barnett Shoals Road, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm for residents to learn more and provide feedback.
About $6 million in SPLOST funds have been designated for the project. Additional public input opportunities are planned as the project moves through additional phases for site selection and design.
