https://www.cincinnati-oh.gov/cityofcincinnati/news/city-leaders-break-ground-on-new-fire-training-campus/ Today, City Manager Sheryl Long, alongside Vice Mayor Jan-Michele Lemon Kearney, Councilmember Scotty Johnson, Fire Chief Michael Washington and Megen Construction, broke ground on a new fire training campus. "The Cincinnati Fire Department is full of some of the most talented and dedicated members of our community. They literally run into burning buildings, putting their health and safety on the line, to save others. It is my responsibility to ensure those firefighters are equipped in those fast-evolving situations with the best training. I am proud to break ground on this campus to support our fire department and its future members," said City Manager Sheryl Long. The new fire training campus will consolidate fire training services and expand the main fire training center at 3200 Millcreek Road. This $13.623 million investment will be used year-round by Cincinnati Fire Department (CFD) staff and recruits. This new campus will include an administrative and education building, a high bay building and a training tower. "The Cincinnati Fire Department values training and readiness to do even the routine runs well. Proper training prepares CFD staff and recruits to respond in every situation. This expanded campus will allow us to train in a way that ensures we get it right every time," said Chief Michael Washington. Currently, training of new recruits and full-time CFD staff occurs at several sites in the Cincinnati area. This new campus will provide more efficient, centralized fire training. Megen Construction and MSA Design are the design-build team for the new facility. Construction is expected to begin in fall 2023 with the campus ready for use by the end of 2024. "At Megen Construction, we pride ourselves on safety with a safety record that is well above the industry average. We are truly excited to be the design-build lead for this vital project that prepares firefighters to keep our community safe," said Megen Construction Company President and CEO Evans Nwankwo. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The City of Cincinnati, Ohio, (hereinafter referred as 'City') is issuing this Request for Qualifications (hereinafter 'RFQ') pursuant to the provisions of the Cincinnati Municipal Code (CMC), Chapter 321 and City Manager Administrative Regulation 23 for Professional Services, from parties, (hereinafter 'Design/Build Team' or 'Team').
