The Seattle City Council’s Public Safety, Human Services and Education Committee will hold and follow-up discussion and vote on the preferred location for Queen Anne’s Fire Station 20, tomorrow, Wednesday, October 7 at the City Council Chambers inside City Hall, at 600 4th Avenue at 9:30 a.m.

Currently located at 13th Avenue West and West Dravus Street on the north side of the hill, the Council is charged with deciding whether or not to rebuild the existing station or move it to a new location at 15th Avenue West and West Armour Street. Tomorrow’s vote is one of two deciding votes coming up in the next week.

According to Christa Dumpys from the Queen Anne/Magnolia Neighborhood Service Center, a Council staff report on the new site will be presented before the committee tomorrow, after which Councilmember Tim Burgess invites public comment and discussion before taking the vote. The proposal will then be voted on by the full council on Monday, October 12.
