Episode Details

Richmond’s aging fire stations—some over 80 years old—are crumbling with cracked walls, rusted pipes, and spaces too small for modern fire engines. Firefighters are even sleeping in the same rooms as their gear.

If voters say no, the department says they’ll find other ways to fund the upgrades, but safety and efficiency demand action now.
