The mission of the Fire Department is to protect the lives and property of the people of Grapeview from fires, natural disasters, and hazardous materials. On Wednesday, firefighters were able to move into the facility.It is policy, at the discretion of the Fire Chief to conduct tours of the fire department when requested by the public and to use these opportunities to promote fire safety education to the residents of the community. “We are extremely grateful to our citizens and city leaders for their support and willingness to provide our department with the trucks, stations, equipment, and staffing so we can fulfill our mission of ‘Serving Others,’” said Broken Arrow Fire Chief Jeremy Moore. The project is funded by the voter-approved 20 General Obligation bonds. Reco Enterprises constructed the station at the cost of $3.8 million. The new station is equipped with a new fire engine, ambulance, and cancer mitigation tools. It’s location just north of the Creek Turnpike also allows responders to get to calls across the city in a timely manner. Where the two stations are located we had two minutes response times, which is fantastic, but it was leaving eight and nine minutes response times to the southeast portion of the city,” said Chief Moore. Fire station 3 was originally located on the corner of Great Neck Road and Virginia Beach Boulevard and was known as the London Bridge Volunteer Fire. “We’re looking for a more response time consistency in the city.
The goal for Station #3 is to enhance response times for the southeast part of Broken Arrow.
The new facility is 11,000 square feet, built with three bays to accommodate for the city’s expected growth.
