Fire Headquarters Parking Lot Renovation

Fire Headquarters Parking Lot Renovation

The Middlebury Volunteer Fire Department parking lot, and apron surfaces are finally being repaved. Standing water, potholes, and cracked surfaces have plagued the department's parking lot for several years. Over the past three years the department has requested that this work be approved, and finally work on this sorely needed project has been started. Upon completion, the parking surfaces will be re-graded for better water flow, areas to facilitate snow removal will be added, and options for future upgrades will be provided for.

In an effort to keep the firehouse running efficiently for years to come, the direct burial wires are being replaced with wires run through conduit. This will help prevent electrical shorts and last longer, as well as being safer should the lot need to be dug up years down the road.

Keeping with the M.V.F.D. tradition of keeping our firehouse clean, Chief Perrotti in Engine 1 wets down the pavement to wash away the large amount of dirt and dust on the old lot.
