You might have noticed some work starting at the Pound Ridge Fire Dept property. We have started prepping for our
expansion project which is set to break ground on October 17th 2024. Rest assured that this will not impact our
firefighting capabilities to protect the town.
What to expect:
We expect the construction timeline to be about 18 months. Construction fencing will be placed around the property to
keep the site safe and secure. A section of the rear parking lot directly behind the Fire Dept and near the pond will NOT
be accessible to the public during this time. Accessing the rear parking lot will be via the side access road between
Chubby’s hardware and Avalon Insurance as well as the one-way access road between the fire department and the 123
Dough Bakery.
Please note:
The Fire District is working with the town to relocate the 911 memorial site to another park of the town’s choosing
before construction begins. We understand the importance of this memorial and do not want to limit access during our
construction.
Finally, because of the construction, our annual Halloween Party is being moved to the Pound Ridge Town Park – to be
held on Oct 31st, 6pm – 9pm. Food, drinks, an ice cream truck, candy, popcorn and movies will be provided free of
charge - weather permitting.
