Marlborough (MA) officials will host a second public meeting on July 20 to discuss plans for a proposed new fire station along Elm Street on the city’s west side, reports patch.com.

The new station has long been in the department’s sight, and, last fall, the city purchased 481 Elm St. for $440,000 with the hope of building the new digs there. However, residents near the site are concerned about traffic and noise problems. If the station doesn’t get built there, the city may resell the parcel.

The public meeting begins at 7 p.m. at City Hall, 140 Main St.
