Metamora, In. — Construction on a new fire station in Metamora could begin as early as mid-May. The fire station will be built on three acres of land where the Metamora School was located. The Metamora Volunteer Fire Department signed a 99-year lease for the property with Franklin County commissioners back in 1972.
The new location is expected to improve response time and eliminate issues for firefighters during Canal Days.
This year, the Metamora Volunteer Fireman’s Festival is Saturday, July 6 from 3 p.m. to midnight at the fire station.
