New Fire Station 1 Facility

 

NIXA FIRE PROTECTION ASKING VOTERS FOR BOND RENEWAL

 

The Nixa Fire Protection District board of directors is calling for a NO TAX INCREASE Bond Election on April 5, 2022. 

Shall Nixa Fire Protection District issue its general obligation bonds in the amount of $6,400,000 for the purpose of constructing, furnishing, and equipping a new fire station; renovating, improving, and repairing existing fire stations; and acquiring fire trucks, vehicles and other firefighting and emergency apparatus and equipment?

This bond will extend the district's current bond approved by voters in 2014 and expires in 2024 to provide funds for capital expenditures including a new ladder truck and fire station located at 1295 W. Guin Road. Those projects were completed as promised.

This bond renewal allows the district to continue to keep up with the growth and demands to provide emergency medical and fire response for 38,000 people that reside within the 53 square miles served by the fire district.

Funding from this renewed bond will construct a new Fire Station 1, purchase new fire apparatus, and renovate the Main Street Station into a training / community facility, and update district headquarters.

More about the project

In December of 2021, the Nixa Fire Protection District purchased property, 710 North McCroskey Street, Nixa, Missouri. This site was purchased to relocate Station 1 located at 711 N. Main Street to a more central location to provide the highest level of emergency response that Nixa residents expect and deserve.

This information is intended to inform the public of our plans, and the relocation of station 1.
