A new fire station in Poinsett County may save money for the residents of Harrisburg (AR), KAIT8.com reported.
Construction has begun on the new Harrisburg Fire Station, located off Highway 1. The new state-of-the-art facility will expand their force and hopefully lower their Insurance Services Office (ISO) Rating, the report said.
A city official said its ISO rating may potentially go down which will lower premiums for the city of Harrisburg and surrounding areas, the report said.
The city official said they are building the facility with the plan of moving to a full-time fire department and adding space for living quarters, the report said.
Construction on the exterior of the building is expected to be completed by winter, according to the report.
