Celebrating Fire Station 3

Ribbon cutting marks offical opening of new station

Posted
Lebanon celebrated its newest fire station, which is already resulting in faster response times, with a ribbon cutting ceremony Thursday. Mayor Jared Carr told the crowd gathered for the ceremony that the building at Beck and Ivey Lane will help firefighters to do their job effectively. “This building has so many elements of the community really coming together and working together in order to make our community safer,” Carr said. “It started in 2019 with the community passing a half-cent sales tax and without the community support, this building would not be possible. Plans got underway shortly after that in order to expand our fire protection capabilities here in the community.” For more on this story see Saturday's LCR.
