TOWN OF BELOIT—The demolition and reconstruction of the town of Beloit’s Fire Station 2 is expected to be finished by the fall of 2024, according to township officials.
Plans call for the current Station 2 to be demolished by September 2023, Town of Beloit Administrator Tim Wellnitz said.
Fire Station 2 is at 1143 Inman Parkway. The new station will be rebuilt at the same address.
In May, Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers announced that the town of Beloit would receive a $7.6 million grant from the state’s Neighborhood Investment Fund for the new station.
The next step is a design.
“Town administration are currently working with the project architect to finalize the station layout,” Wellnitz said.
Fire Station 2 was built in 1974. It is currently used as a storage facility for the township and as the office for the town’s community development director/building inspector and code enforcement officer, according to Wellnitz.
The fire department operates out of Fire Station 1, 2445 S. Afton Road.
