Prior Lake, MN 55372-1714 CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT April 3, 2006 ~ 7A . (\, Frank Boyles, City Managi)( FIRE STATION TWO COMMITTEE Introduction The purpose of this agenda item is to share information about proposed Fire Station Two and the Fire Station Two Building Committee. History In the late 1990s, the City updated a Fire Station Study to determine how many Fire Stations would be needed to serve our community once it is fully developed. This study predated the annexation agreement. The conclusion was that at least two stations would be needed. In 1995, Fire Station I was constructed at Fish Point Road and CR 21. In accordance with the Fire Station Study recommendations, a second fire station was sited for CR 21 and Carriage Hills Parkway. Current Circumstances Fire Station II has been part of the City's Capital Improvement Program for numerous years. The 2006-2010 Capital Improvement Program calls for the construction of this station in 2006. We have been working with Wensmann Realty who has agreed to donate over an acre of land in the commercial portion of the Jeffers Pond Development for the construction of it. Conclusion At the April 3, 2006, City Council meeting, a PowerPoint presentation will be shared with the City Council and viewing public in advance of the first meeting of the Fire Station Two Building Committee. Mayor Haugen and Councilmember Millar serve on that committee together with Fire Chief Sames, Assistant Fire Chief Hartmann, Firefighter Kline, Public Works Director Albrecht and myself. www.cityofpriorlake.com Phone 952.447.4230 / Fax 952.447.4245 1 2 3 - .- ..... --- -- ;:: - --- 4 5 6
