Well word on the street is that The city of Salisbury has currently started site work on the north end of Salisbury behind the Target building for a new "Emergency Services Building" which is going to house the Salisbury city police as well as a 24 hour paid paramedic crew and a paid 24 hour engine crew. Of course that all may be false unless the details come to the surface, but I don't think that another fire company is needed in the city of Salisbury as Delmar can handle anything on that side of town if needed. Like I said this was told to me by a few people so it could be a rumor but was also told that this information as been a well kept secret between the higher ups in the Salisbury fire dept. Maybe someone will investigate this.

Build it down at the center. More crack heads.
Another station means more officers to supervise,more high salarys! Yeah!
Up by the big box stores, gonna need another $350,000 tower truck to keep up there!
I was wondering what was going on there. I see the site work when I go to Home Depot for building supplies. As a licensed contractor, and bid board subscriber, I never did see anything on the bid boards about this. Do you suppose the "Good Ole' Boy" network just hired a contractor without putting the project out for bids? What's the price tag, and who's the lucky kickback payer?
Doesn't make sense with such a bottle neck getting to Rt 13, if North Pointe Dr is exit. But than again when dealing with government thinking thats exactly what they'd do.
I wonder if this was an election promise that is being filled? Does Palmer/Ireton/Day finances have a hand in this? Let's add some low income housing there too.
300 unit apartment complex actually
This construction should be very easy to verify with a few calls. I for one would like to know the answer.
No wasn't bid just assigned. Ask the folks there. And a tower truck is well higher than $350,000 with all of the pretty extra packages some FD expect.
They are building apartments in the field between Target & Tractor Supply, a road will be ran from behind Golden Corral to meet with the dead end behind Tractor Supply for easy access. I believe there are 300+ apartments going up in there. I heard it's going to be another complex just like Marley, like its' sister complex.

Um, let's get one thing straight. That tower truck cost over $1 Million and the fire trucks cost over $500 thousand.
What happened to the Multimillion dollar Mini Palace for Station 2 on Naylor Street?
