MFD Moves Into New Fire Station
October 21st, 2013 by Joe BurgessThe Monticello Fire Dept. has moved into its new Central Fire Station on Wood Street.
The new station has 3 bays for fire trucks, and even holds the long ladder truck, which was stored outside at the UAM station.
2 bedrooms, a training room, and a kitchen are also in the new facility, as well as a washer and dryer, to wash turn-outs (external firefighting uniforms).
New computers, software, and much improved office space are also a much needed improvement over their previous 1930’s facility.
MFD has 11 full-time and 14 volunteers.
The old structure will be renovated to ad office space to the Monticello Police Dept.
