Fire-Rescue Station To Open Imminently
/Miami-Dade Fire-Rescue Station 62 was supposed to go into active service mid-September at the southeast corner of Old Cutler Road and SW 142 Terrace. To passers-by, the temporary station facilities have looked completed for weeks, but still no trucks or personnel.
Covered canopy for truck and personnel trailer are ready to go...
The delays were caused by pending sewer and communication hook-ups, as well as final closure of permits.
Miami-Dade Fire Rescue officials told me on 11/7/16 that active service should begin with three paramedics and one officer (also a paramedic) stationed there 24/7/365 by the time this newspaper hits stands. Further, I confirmed that the plans for the final Miami-Dade Fire-Rescue Station 62 building are in review with Palmetto Bay.
Faster response times are on their way for residents in the area.
