Jerome Township Fire Station
Spicer Group worked with the Jerome Township Fire Department to design a replacement for Fire Station Number One. The department operates from two stations with 25 volunteer personnel, two engines, one large tender, one grass truck, one light rescue vehicle, and one rescue vehicle. The new USDA Rural Development funded station has four 80-foot apparatus bays and has the ability to expand an additional bay and accommodate the needs of 35 fire fighters including turnout, training, locker rooms, offices, archive storage, workout space, laundry, dispatch, dedicated EMT, hose, and SCBA equipment storage. The building has radiant heat floors in the apparatus bays and a concrete floor mezzanine for mechanical equipment and storage. Using an economical Pre-Engineered Metal Building frame, with add-on architectural details, the building provides the Township a long-term solution that fits their modest budget. The station is complete and currently being used to its fullest by the Jerome Township Fire Department.
