CHILMARK FIRE STATION
(Approved 2021)
(New Opened July 2023)
The Town of Chilmark on Martha's Vineyard has
been looking for years
at some options for either updating or replacing their humble little
fire
station next to the Town Hall. In 2018 the town was looking at
specific
sites and options.
In the Fall of 2019, Chilmark authorized some
funding to develop plans
to raze and replace the main station at Beatlebung Corner with a new
facility.
At the same time, the Tri-Town Ambulance, serving West Tisbury,
Chilmark,
and Aquinnah will be getting a new facility adjacent to the planned
fire station.
