Resident questions cost estimates for Brooker Fire Station Phase 2
Summary
A resident asked why Phase 2 of the Brooker Fire Station (two additional bays) appears to cost roughly the same as building a firehouse with two bays, saying the math "don't math" and urging clarity on project scope and estimates.
Beau Hastings relayed a conversation with the fire chief about Phase 2 of the Brooker Fire Station, saying the planned work is for two additional bays. He questioned the cost estimates, comparing a past construction of a firehouse with two bays to the current quoted cost: "so you can build a firehouse and 2 bays for 500,000, but now it's gonna be 500,000 for just 2 additional bays. That math don't math."
Hastings urged the commission to scrutinize the project scope and cost estimates. The transcript does not include a response from the fire chief or county staff in the provided segments.
