Council approves temporary fire station at 67 Kitty Hawk Avenue amid Minot Avenue project
Summary
The council approved Order 5907072025 to use 67 Kitty Hawk Ave. as a temporary fire station while the new public safety building is constructed on Minot Avenue; the action was taken by show of hands at the July 7 meeting.
The Auburn City Council on July 7 approved Order 5907072025 to authorize use of 67 Kitty Hawk Avenue as a temporary fire station while the city constructs a new public safety building on Minot Avenue.
Councilors were reminded that using the temporary site supports a single-phase construction approach for the new Minot Avenue facility rather than phasing construction across multiple sites. The city’s ordinances require an assessment for any public safety building not located on the site of a current public safety facility; Chief Chase provided the required assessment in the meeting packet.
Councilor Walker moved the order and Councilor Whiting seconded. The council took the vote by show of hands; the clerk announced six votes in the affirmative and none in the negative, and the motion was adopted. No public comments were offered during the item.
The approval permits staff to proceed with preparations at 67 Kitty Hawk Avenue as a temporary location pending construction of the new Minot Avenue public safety building. The council did not specify a timeline for the temporary station’s activation in the July 7 discussion.
