The Mattituck Fire District has its eyes on a $112 million expansion, with a bond vote planned for a yet-to-be-determined date in June, reports suffolktimes.com.
The $112 million would be approximately $180 per household assessed at $6,000, according to the report. The department plans to hold a public meeting(s) prior to the vote.
The plan is to merge three parcels for a total of 2.28 acres and expand the firehouse on Pike Street and Route 25, with further plans to relocate the historic firehouse on site and demolish the building currently used as district office, according to the report. This would require area variances.
The firehouse expansion would gross 13,260 square feet and see four pull-through truck bays, offices, and accessory spaces, with more parking spots and highway access, and possibly a fitness room, the report says.
The plans have been in the works for a few years and went to the town last year, and the next step is to adopt a resolution and hold a public meeting, the report says.
