... New North OC Fire Station Project Now Underway
FROM PAGE 13 the job probably could have had more men on it, especially in the beginning, but they are committed to finishing the building, they have shown that commitment, and the most important thing is it’s done right,” McGean said. As that project finally nears completion, the city is turning its focus to north Ocean City with this week’s demolition of Fire Station 4 on 130th Street. According to City Engineer Terry McGean, by the end of the week the site will be cleared and work on the foundation of the new facility will begin in the next couple of weeks. The project has 200 calendar days to be completed and is estimated to be finished by the end of April in time for next year’s summer season. Last December, Fire Station 4 came before the Mayor and City Council and plans were approved to move forward with the final design
and preparation of construction documents at that time. Fire Station 4 was included in the 2012 bond issuance when obtaining federal stimulus funds became unsuccessful. The preliminary design and architect selection for the project started back in 2009. The fire station was selected by the Ocean City Fire Department (OCFD) as a top priority for expansion due to the concentration of high-rise structures and year-round residents in north Ocean City. In August, the Mayor and City Council approved the apparent low bidder of Gillis Gilkerson in the amount of $2,692,018 to construct the new fire station. The total building budget is $3.5 million that is funded by the 2012 bond issue. The total building budget is $3.5 million that is funded by the 2012 bond issue. The council also approved the Recreation and Parks storage unit on the backside of Jamaica Ave. to serve as a temporary facility for Fire Station 4 during construction. The site is just 400 yards from the existing fire station. Staff and equipment are currently all moved in. The new state-of-the-art facility will be larger with an increase from two engine bays to three, an exercise room, decontamination room and an increase in living space for duty crews as well as an addition of a live-in area on the second floor as a way to encourage volunteers by providing housing.
Demolition of Ocean City Fire Station 4 took place this week and a 200-day timetable is in effect for the new station to be built on the same site.
