Quick context to catch up fast.
The committee reviewed updated Fire Station 4 designs and future-escalated cost estimates, including a $73,365 estimate to remove columns between two bays. It asked that the radiant slab, bay-column removal, and steel roof be treated as alternate deductions to support potential cost reductions; no project approval or referendum vote was taken.

The committee is still refining the proposed Fire Station 4 project rather than making a final construction decision. Members discussed keeping specific features available for removal if costs must be reduced, while noting that the estimates include a 10% owner's contingency and other construction contingencies. The plans show bay doors measuring 14 feet high by 14 feet wide, which the committee said is sufficient for a modern fire truck.
