The Orland Fire Protection District is set to kick off renovations at Station #2 later this fall. This station, located at the intersection of 151st and 80th Avenue, first opened its doors back in 1980. Initially designed to house volunteer firefighters and part-time personnel, Station 2 originally featured just one bay and a small space that combined an office, kitchen, and lounge area. At the time, it wasn’t intended to support full-time staffing or round-the-clock operations.
Over the years, however, as demand for emergency services grew, so too did the station's role within the community. Several upgrades have been implemented over the decades to allow for overnight stays and continuous 24/7 operational capabilities. Additional bays were constructed, and the kitchen/lounge area was expanded to better meet the needs of the growing team. Despite these modifications, due to the numerous changes and expansions made over the years, bringing Station 2 up to modern standards would only provide a temporary fix. Recognizing this, the Orland Fire Protection District Board of Trustees unanimously approved a comprehensive renovation plan during their June 2013 meeting.
Construction on this ambitious project is scheduled to commence this autumn and is anticipated to last roughly eight weeks. The goal is to create a state-of-the-art facility that meets current safety codes while providing the necessary accommodations for a full-time firefighting crew.
For those interested in seeing what the future holds for Station #2, an artist's rendering has been released, showcasing the updated design. You can view the renovation plans [here]. As of now, the current structure remains largely unchanged, as captured in this recent photograph by Karl Klotz.
