LIVERMORE FALLS — Voters will consider a proposal Tuesday to use up to $10,000 from the town’s surplus fund to conduct a feasibility study of property for a new fire station.
The polls on Election Day will be open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. at the Town Office.
Voters at the annual town meeting in June agreed to explore the possibility of building a fire station in the East Livermore section of town.
The town foreclosed on a property on Route 106 that has a mobile home and a garage. The property — about 3½ acres — is near the entrance to Pine Ridge Loop mobile home park.
The money would be used to conduct a feasibility study on the property to determine its suitability for a fire station. Another property might be considered, too.
Town Manager Stephen Gould has said the town-acquired property looks suitable for a fire station, but he was not sure if the well and the septic system are adequate and in proper working condition.
A number of items would have to be checked, including visibility.
