Hennessey said up next for the fire station renovations was building a ramp for the front door of the station that was ADA compliant.
Motorists passing the fire house on Main Street this week may have noticed a small construction crew working just outside the front door. They’re creating an ADA-compliant ramp—the final phase of an approximately $1.1 million renovation of the firehouse that’s taken about 18 months to complete and includes an elevator. We met up with Fire Chief Jack Hennessey for a brief tour of the headquarters—see the slideshow above.
