With the increasing demands and growth of the department, the expansion project aims to enhance the capabilities and services provided to the community.

The Central Station expansion will add more than 4,200 square feet of space, allowing for the incorporation of several key features. The new addition will include eight bedrooms, new full bathrooms, and seven administrative offices.

“As our community continues to expand, it is imperative that the Lafayette County Fire Department evolves to meet the growing needs of our residents,” said Fire Chief Wes Anderson. “This Central Station expansion represents our commitment to enhancing our capabilities, improving response times, and providing the highest level of service to ensure the safety and well-being of our community. “

The additional bedrooms will enable the department to accommodate the increased number of personnel. The improved facilities will foster a conducive environment for training, knowledge sharing, and overall firefighter well-being.

The expansion project reflects LCFD’s dedication to maintaining the highest standards of professionalism and efficiency.

“The Central Station expansion has been a long-term vision of our department, and we are thrilled to see it become a reality,” Anderson said. “This project will greatly benefit our firefighters and enhance our ability to serve our community effectively.”
