Today, I had the honor of joining Sheriff Scott A. Hildenbrand, Congressman Dave Joyce, Commissioner Jim Dvorak, other elected officials, and the Hambden Fire Department for the groundbreaking of a brand new fire station campus on Old State Road.
This $8 million project is fully funded through federal and state grants, meaning no new burden on local taxpayers.
The new campus will include modern apparatus bays, living quarters for on-duty personnel, administrative space, and will even serve as a future polling location for Hambden Township residents, who currently must leave the township to cast their ballots.
Congratulations to the Hambden Fire Department and everyone who made this happen. I know the department is famous for its clambakes, but I think this new kitchen might be able to handle a pancake breakfast too!
