The total program cost is estimated at $129.6 million in 2014, with cost escalation predictions as high as $151.8 million under a 12-year scheduling option and $139.5 million for six.

STATION FACILITY ASSESSMENT
• New EMS equipment & regulations require dedicated spaces not currently provided
• Code seismic design forces are greater than current stations were designed for
• Modern apparatus require larger bays• Specialty units/response have unmet storage
needs• Limited capability for in-station training• Additional space needed to address air quality
(separation of firefighter gear from apparatus)
