The Chandler City Council has awarded a $5.8 million construction contract to Core Construction, Inc., to rebuild Chandler Fire Station No. 282, located near Alma School and Warner roads in Chandler.

“Station No. 282 is located in an ideal location and consistently handles our highest call volumes in Chandler,” said Fire Chief Tom Dwiggins. “These improvements will enable a second engine company to be relocated to the new station, improving our emergency response capabilities in this area of Chandler.”

The agreement enables a new Fire Station No. 282 to be built in stages at the site. The new station will provide four vehicle bays for fire apparatus and a facility to house two four-person engine companies on-site. The second engine company would be relocated from another existing fire station due to the high call volume experienced in this area.
