The City of Bridgeton Fire Department has several code violations along with building deficiencies including outgrowing the original 1898 structure and 1975 apparatus bay addition. As part of the process, the vacant City Hall building located across the street has ample square footage and property to accommodate the needs of the department now and well into the future. Project budget costs include general construction, furniture, fixtures and equipment, landscaping, professional services including architectural, engineering, and legal fees, bond fees, project management fee and a project contingency. This budget is based on an estimated fit-out of a facility (including renovations and new construction) totaling 29,926 square feet. Current Fire Department operations are housed at 1 Orange Street. The address of the new location will be 168 East Commerce Street (Block 121, Lot 1).
