The City of Seneca seeks funding to improve an existing Fire Hall and bay to protect its fire engines and water tender during severe winter conditions. Currently, the tender must be drained to prevent freezing, limiting its ability to remain fully prepared for emergency response. The City has previously experienced freeze damage to a fire truck, demonstrating the vulnerability of critical firefighting equipment.
The project will relocate and reuse an existing interior wall to enclose the bay, add insulation and heating, install an electric overhead door and two ventilation fans, and complete necessary electrical improvements. A backup generator will maintain essential power during outages. These improvements will provide a protected, functional space for year-round emergency readiness.
