The City of New Braunfels has announced significant upgrades to Fire Station #5, set to kick off on October 7. The refurbishment, detailed in a release published yesterday, will aim to address nearly four decades of wear and tear while catapulting the station’s facilities into compliance with contemporary National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) standards. At a monetary commitment of $2.2 million, the renovation encompasses a comprehensive facelift from the ground up, hinging not just on compliance, but on the well-being of the firefighters.
