Design includes mezzanine, dorm-like crew rooms and small public rental space
Summary
The proposed EMS station design includes a mezzanine for training and storage, dorm-like bunk rooms for crews, and a public-rental area; the commissioner emphasized keeping public access from disrupting operations.
Designers and the commissioner discussed interior features: bunk rooms described as small dorms, egress windows in each room, bathrooms across halls, and a planned mezzanine that will house storage and a fitness/training area. The commissioner said the mezzanine and upstairs space are intended to allow training without interfering with operations on the apparatus floor and to provide storage and fitness capability for crews.
The commissioner's remarks also considered limited public rental use: the facility should allow groups to rent space without interrupting emergency operations. Participants discussed access control and separate entrances to preserve operational security. "There'll be an upstairs for storage and fitness," the commissioner said when pointing to the mezzanine on the drawings.
