Future

Charlotte Fire Chief, Jon Hannan, continues preparation for the future growth of the City of Charlotte.

  • Possible sites for future fire stations are in northwestern Mecklenburg County around Beatties Ford Road and Miranda Road and an area west of Charlotte-Douglas Airport.
  • In the fall of 2010, began the planning for a new Charlotte Fire Department Headquarters. This two-story building will be located just north of center city. The CFD Command Staff and Administration will operate from the new quarters with the potential for other key divisions to join. The building is due to open August 2013.

Famous quotes containing the word future:

    The American West is just arriving at the threshold of its greatness and growth. Where the West of yesterday is glamorized in our fiction, the future of the American West now is both fabulous and factual.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)

    Perhaps if the future existed, concretely and individually, as something that could be discerned by a better brain, the past would not be so seductive: its demands would be balanced by those of the future. Persons might then straddle the middle stretch of the seesaw when considering this or that object. It might be fun.
    Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    In any future great national trial, compared with the men of this, we shall have as weak, and as strong; as silly and as wise; as bad and good.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
