Site work and new construction of a fire / police facility in Fairfield, Virginia. Design plans call for the construction of a 12,884-square-foot fire / police facility; and for site work for a fire / police facility.

This project includes the purchase of approximately five and a half acres of land and the construction of a new Firehouse #1. The facility will have a footprint of a 12,884 square foot building and 1,200 square feet of mezzanine. The proposed firehouse will be designed to meet current operational requirements and accommodate firefighting apparatus. The project includes private gender-neutral restrooms and individual bunkrooms, ideally located in close proximity to the day room. Other features of this firehouse include an area designated for training/conferences, a day room, 3 administrative offices, outdoor storage, and a fitness room. Four drive-through bays will house an engine, ladder truck, Technical Rescue Team tractor trailer, and both ALS and BLS units. The current site is not conducive to future expansion due to the presence of a stream and the topography of the land. The current firehouse continues to experience water, parking, septic system, and living quarter issues. Due to facility capacity limitations, the Technical Rescue Team tractor trailer must be parked outside, exposed to the elements. As of May 15, 2026, this project is included in the County's Fiscal Year 2026-2030 Capital improvement Plan. A design firm has been selected. Construction is expected to start in the summer of 2027. *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.
