Current Phase: Construction

The User and Occupancy (U&O) Permit has been obtained and the FRS will be moving in by the end of September. The Fire Sation will then be fully operational. The Ribbon Cutting event is scheduled for November 1 at 12:00 PM.

This project provides for a new Fire/Rescue Station in the Clarksburg area and the purchase of associated fire apparatus. The new facility will be located at 23420 Frederick Road in Clarksburg. The new station will be constructed in accordance with the requirements for a Class I Fire Station. A Class I Fire Station is 19,550 to 20,135 square feet in size and includes apparatus bays, dormitory and support space, personnel living quarters, administrative offices and meeting/training room. Additionally, this station will include offices for a Battalion Chief, a Police satellite facility, space for the Up County Regional Services Center and personal protective equipment storage totaling 2,600 square feet. The total square footage of this station will be 17,295 square feet. On-site parking will be provided. Fire/Rescue apparatus to be purchased for this station includes an aerial truck, a tanker and a brush truck.

A new station is necessary in this area due to the present and projected population density for the Clarksburg area. Clarksburg is expected to increase from a few thousand residents to more than 25,000. The Clarksburg Town Center is envisioned to include a mix of housing, commercial, retail, recreation and civic uses with the Clarksburg Historic District as the focal point.

This project is recommended in the Fire, Rescue, Emergency Medical Services and Community Risk Reduction Master Plan approved by the County Council in October 2005 and the MCFRS Station Location and Resource Allocation Work Group, Phase I Report, “Need for Upcounty Fire-Rescue Resource Enhancements, October 14, 1999. Development of this facility will help Montgomery County meet the NFPA 1710 Guidelines.
