June 2004
The Spring Volunteer Fire Department is proud to welcome the
beginning of Station 76. On June 5, 2004 several members placed the
sign in the ground to welcome the arrival of station 76 to the
Londonderry Subdivision. According to Deputy Chief Eric
Anderson construction should begin around mid-year.
The fire station should be completed and in operation sometime in
the last quarter of 2005. Station 76 will be a three bay station
with the design closely reflecting the current station 72. We will
keep you up to date with the sate/time of the official ground breaking ceremony. This fire station
will improve response times to the north end of Kuykendahl and west
to FM 2978 which
will provide better service to its surrounding communities.
