Zoneton Fire Protection District - The 1990s

The 1990s

The 1990s brought even more growth to the area and spurred the district to relocate its Station 1 in 1995 from the Zoneton Road location with 2½ bays to a new $1 million 10-bay firehouse complete with a training room and offices. The new construction didn't come a moment to soon, as just six months after entering the new station a confirmed F4 tornado ripped through the northern part of Bullitt County. The new firehouse was used as a central location for unified command, food closets, shelter, and housing for the firefighters. In 1996 two additional units were purchased, a 1996 Pierce Saber Engine and a 1996 Pierce Saber 65' Telesquirt. In 1999 a Pierce Dash Rescue Pumper was purchased.
