Site work and new construction of a fire / police facility in Concord, North Carolina. Conceptual plans call for the construction of a fire / police facility.

This project is for the construction of a new multi-purpose airport fire station & safety building capable of accommodating two ARFF units and house an airport security center with additional space for offices and possibly US Customs services. The current station is no longer ideally suited (location, layout, or size), for a station at the airport. The number of aircraft, aircraft operations, and size of aircraft have increased substantially in the past several years and that growth is continuing. Since the airport now has a 139 certificate, there are mandatory FAA requirements related to ARFF truck response time to airport incidents. Having a modern station that faces the runway will help ensure the City can meet the needs of a rapidly growing airport and any federal requirements. A centralized security center would allow staff to better monitor airport activities and enhance security. As of July 16, 2022, this project is currently in the FY 2023-2027 CIP . Funding for this project is allotted in the city's capital improvement plan for construction Fy 2023. A firm timeline has not been established; however, construction is scheduled for Fiscal Year 2023. *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP). A CIP is a financial schedule for short- and long-range projects which is updated regularly. Information listed in the CIP often evolves based on funding availability and the project details, including timeline and value, are subject to change. The content management team will continue to pursue additional details as they become available.
