TMFR Groundbreaking on Fire Station Expansion

Reno, NV (Nov. 19, 2024). Join Truckee Meadows Fire & Rescue (TMFR) at Noon on Thursday, November 21, for a groundbreaking ceremony marking the construction of the final phase of Station 37 (3255 West Hidden Valley Drive), serving the Hidden Valley community.

The 4,325 sq. ft. expansion will include a new apparatus bay to accommodate two firefighting apparatus. The existing bay is too small to safely accommodate fire engines and will bring the facility up to current standards. Additionally, office and storage space will be constructed to connect the bay and living quarters. Currently, firefighters exit the station outdoors to access the bay and fire engines. This project also includes replacing a water main that provides irrigation to the Hidden Valley golf course.

The project is expected to take one year to complete. During this time, the firefighter/paramedic engine company will remain in service.

The venture is a $5 million investment with support from the Nevada State Infrastructure Bank.

The first phase of the Station 37 update, completed in 2023, included converting a residential home into a fire station.
