Richmond Fire Stations Need Urgent Upgrades | San Jose News
Description
Richmond’s fire stations are crumbling—some built 80 years ago, with cracked walls, uneven floors, and even portable toilets outside. With millions needed just to meet code, the city’s pushing a $120 million bond measure for urgent upgrades, including seismic fixes at the oldest station. This isn’t just about comfort—it’s about saving lives. Firefighters can’t respond effectively if their stations can’t house modern engines or handle emergency calls. Recent wildfires underscore the stakes, and voters overwhelmingly support the bond. Rebuilding these stations is a vital investment in public safety and community resilience.
