Description The Kittitas Valley Fire and Rescue (KVFR) project showed that a focus on meeting a community need could lead to cleaning up a contaminated property. When KVFR needed a new home for their District Headquarters, they conducted extensive station location studies triangulating their response times and frequencies. They identified the Mackner Transport property as suitable location, but the property’s petroleum contamination presented redevelopment challenges. KVFR used an Integrated Planning Grant from the Department of Ecology and a local bond to clean up the property and build a new state-of-the-art facility in an ideal location to serve the Ellensburg community.
