Bourne Fire Stations

BOURNE
Bourne is one of the more unique towns on Cape Cod.
The town covers about 40.7 square miles, although a significant
amount of the town is within the Massachusetts Military Reservation,
also known as Joint Base Cape Cod.

What makes Bourne most unique is the Cape Cod Canal which runs
through the town creating a definite North and South situation.
Crossing the Canal is done over 2 aging bridges, that are frequently very
congested with traffic, resulting in response time delays.

FIRE STATIONS
Bourne had been served by 4 fire stations for many years.
Two on the North side of the Canal and 2 on the South.
Station 1 in Buzzards Bay was always headquarters and was the
busiest of the stations. It was built in the 1920s and added onto
in the 1970s, The station has long been outdated and is not able
to meet ADA requirements for public access, etc.
It is located in an area that flooded during some of the historical
hurricanes back in the 1930s-40s.

In 2006, as part of the Sagamore Bridge "Flyover" project that
eliminated the Sagamore rotary circle, a new Fire Station 3 was
built. It is the only viable fire station built in Bourne in nearly
100 years. It is not in the ideal location to serve as headquarters,
but became the only option by default in 2017. Administrative
offices and public access are currently only possible here.

SOUTH SIDE
Fire Stations south of the Canal included the 1890s barn
that served as the Monument Beach Station 2 for many years.
At one time it was staffed with 1 firefighter, but since the 1970s
was strictly a call fire station with only minimal facilities and
no fulltime staffing.

The Pocasset Fire Station 4 was built about 1947 and added
onto in the 1970s. The station is built on a plot that has a high water table
and for years a pump ran to keep water out of the basement under
the apparatus bays. It however, was the best option for staffing
and operating the only ambulance south of the Canal as well as
an engine and utility vehicle.

UNSAFE
In November 2021, structural issues deemed that the Pocasset Station 4
was unsafe and could no longer be inhabited.
Bourne had to scramble to figure out how to serve the Southside
part of town without an inhabitable fire station.

Talk had been underway for a number of years about building
a new "south" station, but it had gone nowhere. The Pocasset site was not
an option, so with winter coming, a trailer was acquired and setup
outside the old (unmanned) Monument Beach station. Apparatus,
including an engine, ambulance, and duty car were moved into
the station and the crew into the trailer. It is nothing more than
a bandaid for a wound that requires surgery, but Bourne is
making it work until a more permanent solution can be made.

STUDY
Obviously the situation is not ideal in Bourne. A committee has been
formed and is looking at the best sites to build a new south side station
on. By mid summer 2022, the 7 potential sites had been studied and
narrowed to 3 options. Bourne is probably going to have to spend some
money to get the site that would likely serve the south side best.
Since they really haven't spent any good money on fire stations
in about 100 years, it is about time to do so, and to do it right.
 Bourne built a beautiful modern new Police Station a few years ago.
Bourne residents need and deserve to have appropriate modern
fire/EMS facilities to cover the southside of the Canal, and
once that immediate need is addressed, should be looking
at options for a new headquarters facility in Buzzards Bay.

More than likely, a single station will be built to serve a large part
of the town. At best, it would be a couple years before such a station
can be planned, built, and occupied. In the meantime, Bourne
is struggling to handle nearly 5000 calls annually out of facilities
that are in pretty poor condition.

Monument Beach Fire Station 2 has been reassigned as Station 4
with the staffing and apparatus being moved up from the closed Pocasset Station 4.

BOURNE FIRE STATIONS
(Planning Stage)

POCASSET FIRE STATION 4
The formerly staffed Pocasset Station 4 was closed due to structural unsafe conditions.
One piece of apparatus is stored there, but unstaffed while Bourne figures out how
to address the need for a new fire station. For response purposes, the unstaffed
station is renumbered Station 2.

Chilmark Fire Dept

"Old" Chilmark Fire Station 1 has been torn down.

CHILMARK FIRE STATION
(Approved 2021)

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.

The images of the proposed new Fire Station in Chilmark
reflects a 4 bay, wood construction station to replace the
old station on the same site. Funding $11 Million approved at May 2021
Town Meeting.
UPDATE MAY 2021

NOTE
Chilmark went back to a Special Town Meeting on March 26, 2022
to seek an additional $1.2 Million for their Fire Station/EMS Station project.
Bids for the estimated $12.6 Million project came in above what was
previously approved in 2021. 

ADDITIONAL FUNDING APPROVED!

Dennis Fire Station

DENNIS FIRE STATION 2
(Under Construction 2022)

NORTH DENNIS - STATION 2
Dennis Town Meeting approved a $14.6 Million price tag for a new Fire Station 2
to be located at 350 Paddocks Path on the North side of town.
The meeting was held November 2 , 2021 and the positive vote was a vast majority.
Dennis voters needed to give their final funding approval at a December 7, 2021
vote that showed 722 in favor and only 153 against.

Once approval was assured, site clearing began and the official "Ground Breaking Ceremony"
was held on January 13, 2022.

Construction has been continuing at a steady pace with an expected construction
time of about 18 months with a projected opening in Spring 2023.
The building will be about 11,000 square feet including 3 double deep drive through
apparatus bays, appropriate living quarters and a large training meeting room.

The old Station at 1015 Old Bass River Road was built about 1956
with only about 4000 square feet. It was strictly a call station until about 2013
when some permanent staffing began. Currently about 5 personnel are assigned
per shift to the station that was not designed for any fulltime personnel.

Edgartown Fire Station

EDGARTOWN FIRE STATION
(Discussion 2021)

The Edgartown Fire Department is starting to look ahead at its options for
expanding or replacing the main Edgartown Fire Station. The present station
on Pease Point Way was built around 1966 and added onto already during the
1980s and again in 2005. The station was never designed for permanent staffing,
larger apparatus, or many of the other requirements of modern facilities.
The following article in the MV Times discussed the situation.

PLANNING AHEAD
 

Falmouth Fire Stations

FALMOUTH
Falmouth is a large town of about 44.1 Square Miles.
The town has been protected by 5 fire stations for many years.
While the downtown headquarters was always staffed by several on duty
personnel, the smaller outlying stations for many years had only 1 person
on duty at any given time. A large roster of call personnel in
those villages responded to calls and for many years that system
worked pretty well.

MUCH HAS CHANGED
As call volumes continued to increase with many more EMS calls and
many significant changes in staffing needs, the department has
struggled to keep up. Newer stations were built in Woods Hole 2 in 1976
and East Falmouth 5 in 1980, and the Headquarters was completely
rebuilt in 2002. Staffing is slowly being added to handle about 8,500
calls annually - the busiest department on the Cape.

SMALL, OLD STATIONS
The 2 bay North Falmouth Station 3 was built in about 1953
 and the single bay, small West Falmouth Station 4 in 1930.
Both stations have serious age issues. As more modern apparatus
has grown in size and personnel needs have evolved, the need
to upgrade the facilities servicing North and West Falmouth
has been a concern.

Falmouth had decided to close the West Falmouth Station due to
staffing struggles and problems with the station itself.
Some additional funding in 2020 led to the station being
staffed with 2 personnel per shift when available. Otherwise,
the station is sometimes closed because of staffing.

Additionally, for decades, the town has talked about another
fire station to cover the north central part of town known as
Hatchville.

HATCHVILLE
On May 17, 2022, Falmouth voters approved $10M funding
for a new 11,000 sq ft Hatchville Fire Station. Located at 878 Sandwich Road,
It is expected to have 3 bays and have at least 1 Engine and 1 Ambulance assigned.
It is likely the additional space and central location will see this station quickly
become a hub that will serve or support much of the town, as well as Hatchville.

It is still to be determined what Falmouth will do about the fire stations and
service in the West and North villages.

Update August 2022

Falmouth Approves New Station

HATCHVILLE STATION APPROVED
Falmouth Voters approved funding for a new Hatchville Fire Station
at the April 5, 2022 Falmouth Town Meeting.
Talk of a Hatchville Fire Station has been ongoing for more than 30 years.
. The planned facility will be approximately 11,000 sq ft
on a town owned property at 878 Sandwich Road.
Approximately $10 Million was approved for the construction
anticipated to begin in 2023 with about a year for completion.
The station will have 3 bays and allow for future needs of the town.

FALMOUTH STATION ARTICLE

WEST FALMOUTH FIRE STATION

The West Falmouth Fire Station, built in the 1930s, was a "1 man station" for many years. 
It is barely able to house a single modern pumper, A variety of issues have closed the
station for extended periods in recent years. At one point in 2019, the station was scheduled
to be closed permanently. The residents of West Falmouth spoke up and the town
made efforts to provide the additional staffing needed to keep the station open,
at least on a day to day basis. Staffing of 2 per shift when available continues.

The station itself however, is on a small piece of land and there are limitations
to what could be done to make the station more functional for the long term.
Discussions of somehow combining Station 3 and 4 into a more modern
facility that could serve both villages, and other options have been ongoing.

August 2021
The Orleans Fire Station Feasibility Report was issued outlining many problems
with the current building and recommendations for moving forward.
 

Dec 1, 2020
The Town of Orleans voters approved funding for a feasibility study to evaluate
the options for renovating the 1987 Fire Headquarters Fire Station on Eldridge Parkway.
The station was not built for current or future staffing and lacks important facilities
and space for training on site. Additionally, the building has a number of issues
that need to be addressed for firefighter health and safety.

Onset Fire Station

ONSET FIRE STATION
(Opened Sept 2021)

Onset Fire District voters approved a new Fire Station at the May 15, 2017
District Meeting. The originally proposed station, which would have provided
 for much needed space and future growth was estimated to cost $13.9 M.
An amendment during the meeting slashed the budget to $8 M. That sent
the project back to the drawing board. Huge cuts were made to work
within the budget. The entire design changed, loosing much of the
space needed in modern stations.

One of the biggest changes, even before the budget was slashed, was
to move the station out of the center of Onset where it had been a
mainstay since about 1894.  The current station at 5 East Central Ave
was built around 1950, next to the original station.
The new station was planned for a parcel of land across from the
Onset Water Department on Sand Pond Road, north of the Cranberry Highway
at the Onset Avenue lights.

The site was cleared by December 2019.
Ground was officially broken on March 11, 2020
and construction began soon after.
The station was planned to be moved into in the
Summer of 2021, but as is often the case, was delayed
until September 2021 when the move was made.

It will take some time to get fully moved in and comfortable
in the new station.

PLYMOUTH FIRE STATION 7
(Opened July 13, 2020)

The Plymouth Fire Department opened their newest Fire Station No.7
at 15 Hedge Road, off Court Street, in North Plymouth on July 13, 2020.

Construction on the new station began with the clearing of land in 2019.
The 2 Story, three bay, double deep, brick fire station is home to
Engine 7, the new Ladder 3, Breaker 177, and Forestry Engine 8-1.
Housing of an ambulance was also planned.

The old Station 7 was built over 107 years ago at 0 Spooner Street
(not far from the new station). It was originally occupied by horse drawn apparatus.
That station had been scheduled to close when the new station was completed,
but it closed early on Nov 7, 2019 due to structural (floor) problems with the old station.
Apparatus was relocated temporarily until the new station opened.
