Community Meeting Scheduled to Discuss Plans for New Fire Station

The county is taking the next step toward the eventual development of a fire hall in the Four Seasons Community.
Fifth District County Commissioner Anita Puckett said last month she would like to have a community meeting to get the public’s input on the plans. That meeting has now been set for Saturday, November 5 at 9:00 a.m. at the Bright Hill Methodist Church Fellowship Hall. This informative meeting will be held for all residents of the Four Seasons Community and surrounding neighborhoods. “Please make plans to attend. We have several wonderful ideas for this project and would really like the input from the community. So please join Mr. Donny Green, County Fire Chief, and myself as we begin this process of new construction,” said Puckett.
During last month’s meeting, the county commission voted to begin site preparation. “We have some site work that needs to be done. There’s a building or barn on the property and a small pond. I think its time to start doing some work in clearing the property,” said County Mayor Tim Stribling.
Two years ago the county commission voted to acquire property, a little more than an acre in size, near the intersection of Four Seasons Road and Young Green Road for the future home of the fire station. Last year the county commission set aside $25,000 as seed money and $50,000 was included in this year’s budget for a total of $75,000 toward the project.
