Arlington County is seeking the public’s views on the proposed direction a community task force might take to help determine how to move forward with a future location for Fire Station No. 8.
The County Board recently accepted the Acting County Manager’s recommendation to create a community task force on Fire Station No. 8, (currently located at 4845 Lee Highway). As it formulates a charge to the task group that it expects to name at an Oct. 8 work session, the Acting County Manager has launched a survey to gather input from the public on the possible direction this task force may take. The survey closes on Oct. 6.
The overall goal is to improve fire/EMS service in Arlington. (Read background and see the County Manager’s statement.)
