Needs and plans for improvement or upgrading of facilities

Bennett Valley Fire Protection District

Station: 6262 Bennett Valley Road

In the short term (first 12 – 18 months of the annexation) upgrades to the Bennett Valley Station will include a roof replacement and a review for earthquake retrofitting and seismic upgrades needs, and ADA compliance.

Anticipated costs: $100,000 $200,000

Mountain Volunteer Fire Company

Station: 5198 Sharp Road

In the short term (first 12 – 18 months of the annexation) upgrades to the Mountain Station will include upgrading to accommodate staffing which will including earthquake retrofitting and seismic upgrades, office space, restroom, break room, kitchen, fire and life safety and upgrades to accommodate fire apparatus storage. We anticipate placing a modular home next to the existing structure that would provide for daily staffing. This would provide necessary fire station facility for several years while a more long-term plan is developed.

Anticipated costs for temporary fire station project: $500,000.

Rincon Valley Fire Protection District

Station 20: 91 Middle Rincon Road  $5.5 mil
Station 22: 45 Larkfield Center Drive $7M
Station 24: 207 Todd Road $6M
Station 25 (storage): 2610 Calistoga Road $1M

The fire district has contracted Ketchell Inc. (a Sacramento based construction management firm) to provide a compressive facilities study of existing RVFPD fire stations and a storage facility. All RVFPD stations have likely outlived their useful life and will require significant upgrading or replacement.

Projected rebuilding costs if performed in 2019:

• Station 20 $5.5m Station 22 $7m 
• Station 24 $6m Station 25 $1m

The funding for the fire station rebuilding project will likely need to be derive from the passage of a voter approved bond measure in the future.

There are other opportunities to explore with the Santa Rosa Fire Department. These opportunities may include the ability to build a joint agency fire station or relocated existing fire station locations to a more desirable location based upon a Standard of Cover response analysis.

Windsor Fire Protection District

Station 21: 8200 Old Redwood
Station 23: 8600 Windsor Road

In the short term (first 12 – 18 months of the annexation) upgrades to Station 21 will include a new roof, new HVAC system, carpeting, ringdown system and an overall refresh to accommodate the heavier use brought forth by the annexation. Long term needs will include the expansion of the Emergency Operations Center and parking lot repaving. $150,000 (short term) $1 mil (long term)

There are no significant infrastructure needs at Station 23.
