The proposed renovation for Fire Station 72 is the most critical of all stations due to its age and overall condition. In addition, the increasing number of incidents in the downtown area does not allow for efficient integration of low-acuity call response units due to lack of accommodations and space. This remodel is dependent on a successful property swap between the city and CAFMA. The remodel aims to modernize the facility to better serve the community's needs and accommodate firefighters safely. One of the immediate benefits is to be able to effectively house a new 105' platform aerial that will be delivered to the department in Summer. Currently, the apparatus bays are somewhat undersized to accommodate the new unit. In addition, the station is anticipated to be adapted further to meet the risks faced by the community in the downtown area by including specific features to accommodate related initiatives. Station 72 will be around 55 years old at the time of this remodel and has several limitations related to modern health and safety systems such as bunker gear storage, decontamination areas, and gender-neutral accommodations. The station is a converted mechanic shop that has limitations due to this design. This has created associated energy issues, and the station presents some of the biggest health and safety related challenges overall. This remodel is anticipated to improve energy efficiency so that it can capture a return on the investment relatively quickly. A review of Prescott fire stations was conducted in 2023 that combined a 2015 professional study and best practice analysis to rate each fire station. Fire Station 72 ranked 1 and scored a 39.10 rating. This project is in included in the City of Prescott's FY 2025-2029 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).
