Design work is about halfway complete on the Vernon Township Fire Department’s new station, with construction slated to start in the next couple of months, reports greenfieldreporter.com.
The project cost is estimated at over $6.5 million, with Fortville and McCordsville’s town councils voting in 2021 to allow the township fire board to take on debt not exceeding its current levy ceiling, the report says.

Fire officials say the bays will house an engine, ladder, and ambulance, with the ladder expected to be purchased in the future.
There is no timetable for the station’s completion, and officials say that another station elsewhere in McCordsville will eventually be necessary due to projected growth.
