Ground was recently broken on the San Marcos (TX) Fire Department’s Station 6, reports sanmarcosrecord.com.
Located in the Trace neighborhood in southeast San Marcos at 5716 S. Old Bastrop Highway, Station 6 is being built as a part of San Marcos’ 2017 bond, which passed with nearly 77% of the vote.
The project—which also includes the purchase of a new fire apparatus—is expected to cost $7 million. According to city officials, a developer will contribute $2.5 million to the project; the city’s capital costs will total $4.5 million. WestEast Design Group of San Antonio, Seidel Construction of New Braunfels, and Jacobs Engineering Group of Dallas have been selected for the project.
