BACKGROUND
The Fire Department has identified that they cannot provide the five minute response time due to
the tremendous growth in the residential subdivisions in the south-west portion of Kitchener. In
order to provide the five minute response time, a firehall is required in the south end, and
Council elected to construct this station on the City-owned lands on Huron Road near Fischer-
Hallman Road. This firehall is scheduled to be in operation in early 2008.
