Seymour firefighters soon to move into new headquarters

After years of planning, the new and improved Seymour Volunteer Fire Station 1 is just about ready to open. The new Station 1 at 10320 Chapman Highway includes a number of upgrades that the original, located on Ford Hill, doesn’t: sleeping quarters, a dedicated training area, several additional administrative offices, a day room and fitness/recovery area and three drive-through engine bays. “Having this station here, with the drive-thru bays and easy grid access, easy line of sight out to get out, and being able to provide bedrooms and showers for our people,” said former SVFD Chief John Linsenbigler. “It’s a big step up.” Walking through the new station, Linsenbigler explained how the upgrades will help SVFD firefighters better respond to calls across the 126 square miles worth of tri-county area that the agency serves. “We’ll have three bathrooms and seven bedrooms (which lets us) plan for the future,” said Linsenbigler. “Eventually, we hope to have more paid staff using our stipend program. We’d like to have somebody on staff at all times at each of our main stations, maybe two people if we can.” Linsenbigler said the department currently has two paid positions: the chief and an admin assistant.
