Fire Station 81 Construction Project
As North Port Fire Rescue moves forward with the reconstruction of North Port's flagship fire station, we recognize the importance of proactive communication and community collaboration in this vital project. Station 81, originally built in 1998, sustained significant damage during Hurricane Ian, underscoring the need for a modernized facility that reflects the strength and resilience of our city. This initiative is not just about rebuilding a structure but enhancing public safety and ensuring our first responders have the resources they need to serve you effectively.
In an effort to maintain transparency and prioritize public involvement, the City is dedicated to keeping residents informed with regular updates, detailed timelines and the historical context surrounding this effort. Together, we are laying the foundation for a fire station that reflects the values and future vision of our North Port community.
